IoT Solutions for Smart Cities
Being initially a driver of the IoT industry, smart city development technologies are rapidly progressing and becoming more and more sophisticated. All cities are pretty unique, thus no fixed-function products will quickly fit the changing demand even of a single small community. A common flexible technology platform is required, and that's where AggreGate IoT Integration Platform perfectly fits the emerging market.
Efficient Transportation
Millions of cars are flowing in any large city, and the past-day predetermined traffic control doesn't work anymore due to its low efficiency. The sensors collect valuable near-real-time information about the traffic density, emergency situations, roadworks, and other significant events. This info is reported to a situation center, allowing to control the whole city’s traffic intelligently and operate a highly efficient transportation system.
Aggregate IoT Platform takes care of:
Traffic Control
- Traffic flows dynamic redistribution with the automated and manual control scenarios
- Intelligent streetlight phase control
- Fleet weight and size tracking
- Photo and video fixation of the traffic laws violations
- Integration with the emergency services
- Road condition monitoring
Municipal Transportation
- Dynamic route planning
- Rescue vehicle shuttling optimization
- Emergency vehicle driver communications
- Fleet condition monitoring
- Automated comparison of the fulfilled services with respective contracts
Public Transportation
- Online tracking and informing
- Public transport overcrowding prediction
- Route optimization
- Fleet condition monitoring
- Integration with the payment services
Parking Management
- Parking slot availability monitoring
- Parking command and control center
- Predictive analytics on the parking congestion
- Online informing and parking slot reservation
- Integration with the car/bike sharing and rental services
Smart City Is a Green City
Opportunities for the metro-wide energy usage optimization are truly boundless. Even the simplest scenarios, such as lighting control, may vary from the obvious night-time auto-activation to dimming based on the crowd density and weather conditions. Wide-area energy management is far more complicated than smart home scenarios, so the control system must be highly modular, adaptable to the huge number of control zones, rules, scenarios, and data sources.
Thus, any pre-defined functions fail to work. A fully custom energy management project is designed for each community. That's when AggreGate Platform steps onto the playground. Its highly modular and extendable nature doesn't assume any out-of-the-box algorithms, it looks more like a brick set that can be used for building an efficient solution of any scale.
This green picture is complemented by the intelligent waste management employing sensor grid management technologies for tracking the container fill ratios and planning optimal logistics for the service fleet.
Another verge of a green city is represented by the ecological and weather monitoring. AggreGate is used to monitor and analyze the particulates (PM2.5), gas levels (CO, CO2, NO2, SO2, O3, etc.), noise levels, wind strength, water currents and wave levels. It provides visibility throughout the current conditions and predictive modeling for the coming hours.
An efficient resource consumption is a keystone of the city management. The energy loss reduction can be reached by making AggreGate monitor and analyze the long-span objects, such as pipelines, power lines or sewerage systems. AggreGate-based distributed smart grid management systems also process the data collected from every power producer and consumer in the city to reach the maximum efficiency.

Monitoring of the emergency notification speakers, radiation level sensors, communication channels, network equipment, video conference system, as well as operator workstations in different regions.
Building Automation
Apart from controlling the city-wide systems, AggreGate covers end-to-end automation of municipal and private buildings and facilities. It handles the power and water management, HVAC and lighting control, fire safety and physical security management. It also connects every engineering system into a complex umbrella solution, where all sensors or subsystems talk to one another and form a detailed building condition picture. Moreover, data collection and analysis allows making predictions for the resource consumption optimization and emergency situation avoidance.

Smart Metering
Every apartment complex and municipal facility has at least a couple of meters. In many cases, there are separate meters installed on every floor/apartment. Each of them is used only for personal settlements with the utility companies. Meanwhile, the centralized city-wide data processing simplifies mutual settlements and opens great opportunities for the strategic resource planning and consumption optimization. Perfectly coping with the big data and having strong analytical modules, AggreGate platform can be a foundation of such government-owned smart metering solution.
