Cities can derive benefit by collecting, communicating and crunching information from a single department. But the greatest benefits come when data is connected with multiple departments and third parties.

Smart cities typically mix and match a variety of wired and wireless communications pathways, from fiber-optic to cellular to cable. The ultimate goal is to have connectivity everywhere, to every person and every device.

Cities often tackle challenges in a piecemeal fashion, due to short-term financial constraints and long-term traditions that divide city functions into separate, “siloed” departments with little interaction. As a result, many projects are built to solve a single problem in a single department, creating “islands of automation” that duplicate expenses while making it difficult to share systems or data.

Gradually roll out smart meters for all electric and water customers. The corporation departments are saving money by not employing meter readers. The metering data is integrated into new back-office applications for billing. It is also used for analytics that locate problems and determine when and whether to expand the grid.

Citywide telecommunications makes it possible to monitor and optimize the flow of cars and pedestrians. Users can track their vehicles and optimize their routes, saving time and fuel while reducing pollution and minimizing the number of trucks on the road. Parking spaces can signal when they are free, so drivers can drive directly to an open spot and avoid circling the block repeatedly.

Highways and city roads need to become smarter with intelligent transportation management software, roadway sensors and smart parking apps. Navigation apps and equipment display real-time traffic so users can find – and even be automatically pointed to – less congested alternatives.

A smart city should know about itself and makes itself more known to its populace. No longer do we have to wonder if a street is congested – the street reports its condition. No longer do we have to wonder if we’re losing water to leaks – the smart water network detects and reports leaks as soon as they occur.

And the smartphones carried by many city dwellers are also sensors that can – when specifically authorized by their users to do so – collect their position, speed, where they cluster at different times of the day and the environmental conditions around them.

Smart traffic sensors can find onroad conditions and congestion. Smart GPS gear can pinpoint the exact locations of the city’s buses or the whereabouts of emergency crews. Automated weather stations can report conditions.
