The Office of the Chief Technology Officer (OCTO) is leading an interagency effort to explore how “smart city” technology can be used in the District. Smart city technology leverages intelligent city infrastructure, including connected devices, sensors, and data analytics, to improve quality of life for residents, enhance economic growth, and address city challenges.
This collaborative effort begins with partnerships between city agencies, the federal government, universities, business improvement districts (BIDs), the tech community, advisory neighborhood commissions (ANCs) and other District stakeholders working together.
