The Municipality of Nestos is proceeding with an important digital modernization project, with the aim of improving the daily life of citizens, upgrading the operation of municipal services and creating a more modern, safe and efficient urban environment.
A comprehensive ecosystem of “smart” services
The project does not concern an individual digital application, but an integrated set of systems that covers different aspects of the operation of the Municipality and the daily life of the citizens. In particular, they provide:
Intelligent pedestrian crossings, friendly to the disabled, with detection and automatic warning systems for drivers.
Smart waste bins, with occupancy sensors and digital monitoring for better planning of collection.
Digital organization of the movement office and management of the municipal fleet, with GPS, telematics and data collection in real time.
Smart city and municipality guide, for the promotion of local businesses, products, services, offers, events and available jobs.
Digital system for the management of municipal cemeteries and digitization of files.
Kindergarten management platform, with applications management capabilities, attendance and immediate information of parents through a smart application.
Digital platform for vulnerable social groups, with the aim of better information, monitoring of programs and providing support.
Digital platform for the management of the popular markets.
Electronic consultation systems for the budget, technical program and regulatory decisions of the Municipality.
Electronic system of organization of the administration and operational operation of the Municipality, for the better organization and automation of daily processes.
System of public performance metrics, according to ISO 37122 standard and adapted to Greek conditions.
Integrated cyber security and teleworking infrastructure, for the protection of information systems, computers and data of the Municipality and citizens.
Central Single Data Management and Collection Platform, which will gather information from the individual systems, services and sensors.
Applications for mobile devices and digital tools, so that important services are more directly accessible to citizens.
Of particular importance is the creation of the Central Single Platform, which will act as the central point of gathering and utilization of the data produced by the different digital actions. Through a single supervision environment, the competent services will be able to have a better picture of the operation of the Municipality and use the available data to make decisions both at the operational and strategic level. The intended platform is based on open source software and places particular emphasis on interoperability between systems.
Citizen-centered digital services
With the implementation of the project, the Municipality of Nestos seeks to utilize modern technologies not as an end in itself, but as a tool for better, faster and more efficient service to the citizen.
The digital transition will contribute to the improvement of road safety, to more efficient waste management and the municipal fleet, to the strengthening of social policy, to the better organization of municipal structures, to the support of local entrepreneurship and to the expansion of citizens’ participation in the consultation processes.
At the same time, the strengthening of cyber security and the central management of information create the conditions for a more secure and organized digital environment, capable of supporting new digital services in the future. The technical solution of the project provides for overall issues of interoperability, security, accessibility, data availability and integrity, as well as possibilities for the extension of the
systems.
With the specific project, the Municipality of Nestos takes an essential step towards a modern local government model, in which digital technologies, data and smart applications are used to improve services, better utilize municipal resources and upgrade the quality of life of citizens.
