DOTSOFT’s new collaboration with the Municipality of Patreon for the implementation of the project “Development of a network of smart sensors to improve the quality of the urban environment BAU of the Municipality of Patreon”.
The object of the contract is the creation of a distributed network of smart sensors that can measure many parameters for a more efficient management of the environment of the historic city center. Through the network of smart sensors it is sought:
a) Implementation of smart city solutions to improve urban microclimate and protect the environment.
(b) Measurement of the environmental data of the Historical Center of the Municipality of Patreon, in order to identify the areas that need protection and to make the necessary interventions.
(c) Recording and control of environmental pollution, air quality, noise pollution and light pollution through Internet of Things (IoT) technologies and determination of existing and predicted rates/indices.
(d) Control and measurements of electromagnetic radiation in the urban fabric.
(e) Improving the quality of ICT services provided through a multi-channel distribution. (f) Increasing accessibility to open data.
Citizens will be provided – through smart infrastructure data presentation applications – the ability to display useful information collected through the network of smart sensors that will be placed in various places and which is based on Internet of Things (IoT) technologies. Citizens will monitor in real time the analysis of the collected data on the quality of the urban environment (e.g. electromagnetic radiation, noise levels, contamination of the atmosphere, etc.).
In addition to the interventions that require the supply and installation of a network of sensors and in general the necessary equipment, the development of a web portal (portal) as well as an application for mobile devices (mobile app) as tools for providing information services to citizens is foreseen. In addition, a management platform (Administrator’s Platform) is to be developed for the responsible managers of the organization, which will enable the management of the sensor network. Finally, the project requires the necessary complementary services: a) Application study services/definition of project specifications b) training services to system administrators and c) drafting of management and use of software and interface environments.
Specifically, the project will include the following sub-systems:
Subsystem 1: Network of sensors for the collection of environmental data, which will be installed in specific places in the city center. The sensor network will be the basic infrastructure through which data will be collected for environmental conditions and the mapping of the data within the urban fabric of the Municipality of Patreon. The subsystem, through the appropriate software, should allow the operation control as well as information about any damage to the network of sensors.
Subsystem 2: Applications for citizens. As part of the implementation of the specific subsystem, the following applications will be developed that will offer information services to citizens:
- Web portal (web portal), through which environmental data and conditions will be monitored, providing information for public gathering as well as information service for emergency environmental conditions in real time.
- App for mobile devices (at least for IOS and ANDROID operating systems) which the citizen will be able to download from the corresponding electronic ‘stores’ (Apple and Google Play Store). The application will enable him to monitor in real time the environmental conditions resulting from the data that will be collected from the network of installed sensors (subsystem 1) in the urban fabric of the city.
Subsystem 3:Consolidated management system, for operators of the operator, which will provide, at a minimum, high surveillance of the operational status of all sensors and be able to process the real-time data so that At least the appropriate information network can be configured to be available on the interface channels with the end users (citizens).
Subsystem 4: System interface software with third-party applications and platforms. The specific subsystem will provide through web services all data collected through the sensor network as well as be able to draw data from third-party systems as long as they have open data and accessible through corresponding electronic services.
