IoT Use Cases for Smart Cities

In the context of Smart Cities and IoT, a wide range of use cases collectively contribute to the advancement of urban environments and services: 

Car and Micromobility Sharing

Car and micromobility sharing services use IoT to enable efficient tracking, management, and user access through connected vehicles. Sensors provide real-time data on vehicle location, usage, and battery levels, while cellular connectivity solutions help to deliver this data to cloud services and apps.  

Smart Parking IoT

Smart parking powered with IoT solutions helps to remotely monitor parking space occupancy, providing real-time information to both users and owners. Sensors in parking spaces detect vehicle presence, while the delivered data enable space optimization, improve traffic flow and dynamic pricing.  

Street Lighting

IoT-based smart street lighting systems contribute to public safety and energy efficiency by using sensors, adaptive brightness, and remote control. They can automatically adjust illumination based on time, weather, or activity, reducing energy consumption and costs. These systems often integrate with broader smart city networks for improved urban management.   

Waste Management IoT

Smart waste management solutions use IoT-enabled sensors and data analytics to optimize collection routes and monitor bin levels in real time. This reduces operational costs, minimizes environmental impact, and improves service quality. Advanced systems also enable waste sorting and recycling for more sustainability.  

Smart Environment

Smart environments use IoT connectivity and software to monitor and optimize environmental factors like temperature, CO2 levels, noise, and air quality. Sensors collect real-time data, enabling systems to adjust conditions for better energy efficiency, health, and sustainability.  

Public Information & Advertising Screens

Public information and advertising screens, powered by IoT, allow for real-time, remotely updated content, such as public transport schedules, traffic updates, and advertisements. These screens can be tailored based on location, time, and audience demographics.

Public Safety

Public safety, enhanced by IoT, involves monitoring and alert systems that help ensure the security of public spaces. IoT-enabled CCTV cameras, sensors, and alarms collect real-time data to detect unusual activities or emergencies, triggering immediate alerts to authorities.

Road Traffic Monitoring & Control

Road traffic monitoring encompasses diverse services associated with road infrastructure, such as road condition monitoring, congestion charging, road tolls, traffic volume monitoring, road signs, traffic lights, and enforcement cameras. 

Customer Stories

From improved service to sustainable resource management, customers share their experiences when adopting IoT technologies.
