Kimap-City will provide citizens with a Map-Visualization service, containing information on the accessibility level of streets, sidewalks and bus/tram/metro stops related to specific areas of the city. The solution will help all the citizens affected by motor disabilities or by limited mobility capacity (old people), to find out which parts of the city are accessible for them and which public transports fit best their conditions.
In designing the city of the future, why not start building one from scratch, instead of dealing with the legacy of an ‘unsmart city’. And why not copy a smart city that is already in operation successfully. That is what Kuwait thought when it hired a South Korean consortium to build Kuwaits newest smart city from scratch. A four billion dollar project. The name of the city will be South Saad Al-Abdullah and will provide accommodations for between 25,000 — 40,000 families.
By analysing anonymised data obtained from commuters' fare cards and identifying commuter hotspots to manage bus fleets, the Land Transport Authority (LTA) can help improve commuting experience. Arrival times of buses are tracked using sensors installed in over 5,000 vehicles, and the real-time location data of buses helps facilitate transport planning to better meet commuters' demands.
Insights gained from data can help LTA better anticipate and address the needs of different types of commuters through improved policy planning.
The OneService mobile app adopts an issue-based approach where reported cases will be routed to relevant agencies in a more efficient and coordinated manner. It is a convenient way for members of the public to give their feedback on municipal issues, without having to find out which agency is responsible for the issue!
PUB, Singapore’s National Water Agency, is rolling out the first phase of Smart Water Meter Programme in Singapore. This will see the installation of 300,000 smart water meters in new and existing residential, commercial and industrial premises by 2023. The Smart Water Meters are designed to monitor and collect water consumption data. This will enable PUB to provide consumers with value-added services through a mobile customer app, such as understanding their water usage, and alerting households of suspected water leaks.

At DOLL they fill a gap in the innovation chain by bringing public and private actors together on a neutral ground, where they can test, showcase and be inspired by cutting edge technology in a “one stop shop” with all relevant network infrastructures present across our 400 acre living lab.
The Transport Systems Catapult was responsible for putting a self-driving vehicle on UK public streets for the first time. The demonstration of a UK developed autonomous driving system marked the conclusion of the LUTZ Pathfinder Project, which began developing autonomous technology in 2014.
The system works by sending data received from GPS satellites and mounted sensors on the vehicles to the center through GSM/GPRS; monitoring, controlling/auditing and management are made according to transiently updated map. By knowing all these data, the following problems can be solved:
Risk reduction of traffic accidents by controlling speed and route violations,
Prevention environment pollution,
Monitorization and management of waste logistics,
