In Stockholm, the smart connected city adds sensors to existing fibre-optic networks and connects to an Internet of Things (IOT) open data platform, to produce real-time information for traffic emissions reduction and to manage all other aspects of city life and operations.
As traffic light posts are evenly distributed across cities, they pose a great opportunity to provide extra data coverage throughout the city. This includes both Wi-Fi and mobile data (4G). In Stockholm a City Wi-Fi will provide the means for leveraging the ‘Internet of Everything’ potential in terms of connectivity and real-time monitoring and enabling services to support and manage all aspects of city life and operations. The City Wi-Fi would enable connectivity and communication – IP based – over one common network infrastructure. This would enable Smarter City solutions in the areas of Traffic Management, Sustainable Mobility, Low Energy solutions for buildings, Video Surveillance and Incident Monitoring, Waste Management and Quality of Life.
This Smart Connected Street Environment is a process that involves the following steps:
In the Slakthus area of Stockholm, two types of sensors are installed to collect data on people and vehicle flow. The sensors are connected to the existing optical fibre network. When pedestrians and cyclists pass a sensor, a time and ID-tag is collected from their mobile phone device. When the same ID passes another sensor it is possible to, for instance, define the average speed and direction of the person. The other sensor is identifying vehicles' registration plates and checks it against the vehicle register. When there is a match, the vehicle information such as type of…
A workshop with city departments and other interested parties was organised in March 2017 to define the types of analysis to be done.
