Smarter Planet

1. Smarter healthcare

   • In Spain, eight hospitals and 470 primary care clinics implemented smarter healthcare systems across their facilities and improved clinical results and operational efficiency by up to 10%

2. Smarter power

   • Smarter power grid
     • Power grids are using sophisticated chips inside the grids that route electricity to exactly to where its needed to not waste any unnecessary power

3. Smarter food

   • Food is being tracked in order to see how safe the source of this food is.

4. Smarter traffic

   • Smarter traffic management is a system where centrally controlled traffic signals and sensors regulate the flow of traffic through the city in response to demand
     • Upgrading to smarter traffic management will reduce everyday congestion markedly by smoothing traffic flows and prioritising traffic in response to demand in real time. Reduce pollution throughout the city stop- start driving is inefficient and polluting. give priority to buses approaching junctions, phasing lights to give traffic flowing with buses a green wave throughout the city. And enable a much more effective response to traffic incidents especially on the A14 and M11. The system can be pre programmed to handle a sudden increase in traffic on any of the ten radials
     • In Stockholm a dynamic toll system based on the flow of vehicles into and out of the city has reduced traffic by 20%, decreased wait time by 25% and cut emissions by 12%. In Singapore controllers receive real time data through sensors to model and predict traffic scenarios with 90% accuracy. And in Kyoto city planners simulate large scale traffic situations involving millions of vehicles to analyze urban impact

5. Smarter cities

   • Operations center
     • Unified view across all city agencies. They monitor and manage services, predict and respond to events and centralised intelligence
   • Water management
     • This manages water usage analytics, predictive asset failure analysis, work order optimization and improved customer service
   • Smarter buildings
     • These buildings have real time data collection, where and how to save money energy, space and operations dashboards and integrated with asset management systems
