关于客户
The City of St. Petersburg’s Transportation and Parking Management Department maintains and improves the transportation system for the safe and efficient movement of people, goods, and services. Under the City’s Complete Streets policy, the clear focus is on consideration for all roadway users and their safety, including motorists, pedestrians, bicyclists, and transit riders, in order to enhance the quality of life for all their citizens and visitors. The department is responsible for implementing modifications to the City transportation systems that are more balanced among different roadway user types. Despite the increased workload associated with the Complete Streets data collection project, the department's staffing level has not grown, making it challenging to collect and analyze the required data for decision-making.
挑战
Under the Complete Streets Implementation Plan, adopted in May 2019, the City of St. Petersburg developed a series of additional performance metrics to measure the transportation system’s performance in accordance with the Complete Streets policy. The added measures help implementing modifications to the City transportation systems that are more balanced among different roadway user types. For the City of St. Petersburg; however, collecting and analyzing the required data for decision making was difficult as the Department’s staffing level has not grown, even with the increased work associated with the Complete Streets data collection project.\n\nFor studying travel time and travel time reliability along certain corridors across St. Petersburg, staff would have been required to drive the corridors to perform these studies. It often required two staff members, with one person driving safely while the other person recorded the drive times. Other Staff would then review and analyze the data. It was a staff-intensive process that was subject to human error, with a perception of the potential for bias. For these reasons, the City decided to find an easy way to automate data collection for certain traffic metrics in order to preserve staff time for data collection and analysis of all the collected data.
解决方案
SMATS Traffic Solutions’ data analytics platform, iNode™, with integrated crowdsourced traffic data, has provided the City of St. Petersburg with an easy way to study travel time on almost every road and highway in the City. This allows the City of St. Petersburg to monitor and capture on-demand travel time data for any road segment in the City for any time and date.\n\nThe City of St. Petersburg officials use the iNode™ application to monitor traffic flow and congestion levels of various highways and roads across the City. Using the platform, the City has established over 60 links studying travel time and travel time reliability along specific corridors. The dashboard map on iNode™ enables the City not only to have an overall view of the links and their locations, but also to monitor and measure the level of congestion for different links. Each link on the map displays a color (dark red, red, yellow, green), which illustrates the range of speed for that link. iNode™’s visualization and comparison features make the travel time studies easier for the City. Also, the exported charts and CSV files of the data are used for further processing and preparing custom reports.

Case Study
Turning A Stadium Into A Smart Building
Honeywell created what it called the “intelligent system” for the National Stadium in Beijing, China, turning the venue for the opening and closing events at the 2008 Summer Olympics into a “smart building.” Designed by highly controversial artist Ai Weiwei, the “Bird’s Nest” remains one of the most impressive feats of stadium architecture in the world. The 250,000 square meter structure housed more than 100,000 athletes and spectators at a time. To accommodate such capacity, China turned to Honeywell’s EBI Integrated Building Management System to create an integrated “intelligent system” for improved building security, safety and energy efficiency.

Case Study
Smart Street Light Network (Copenhagen)
Key stakeholders are taking a comprehensive approach to rethinking smart city innovation. City leaders have collaborated through partnerships involving government, research institutions and solution providers. The Copenhagen Solutions Lab is one of the leading organizations at the forefront of this movement. By bringing together manufacturers with municipal buyers, the Copenhagen Solutions Lab has catalyzed the development and deployment of next-generation smart city innovations. Copenhagen is leveraging this unique approach to accelerate the implementation of smart city solutions. One of the primary focus areas is LED street lighting.
Case Study
Buoy Status Monitoring with LoRa
The Netherlands are well-known for their inland waterways, canals, sluices and of course port activities. The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure indicates that there are thousands of buoys and fixed items in and near water environments that would profit from IoT monitoring. One of the problems with buoys for example, is that they get hit by ships and the anchor cable breaks. Without connectivity, it takes quite some time to find out that something has happened with that buoy. Not to mention the costs of renting a boat to go to the buoy to fix it. Another important issue, is that there is no real-time monitoring of the buoys at this moment. Only by physically visiting the object on the water, one gains insight in its status.
Case Study
China Mobile Smart Parking
Smart Parking, powered by NB-IoT technology, is making it easier for drivers to find free parking spots. Cities can better manage their parking assets and maximize the revenue available to them as a result. Drivers searching for parking create congestion and pollution by circling and hunting for available parking. Smart Parking services are able to significantly ease these problems by guiding a driver directly to a parking space.
Case Study
Barcelona Case Study
Barcelona’s heavy traffic and its associated high levels of pollution were the primary factors that motivated some companies and universities to work on strategies for improving traffic in the city centre. Bitcarrier is one of the technologies involved in the In4Mo Project, whose main objective is to develop the applications that form the core of smart mobility, one of the fundamental pillars of the smart city concept.
