IoT leading smart city QoL, eco and management improvements

City planners, governments and businesses alike know the value of leveraging technology to solve their challenges. In short, that’s what smart cities are…the application of technology to solve urban challenges and improve the quality of life for all citizens and operators within the city limits. But just adopting any old bit of kit simply won’t cut it anymore. It’s important to focus on solving specific operational problems with clear efficiency gains in mind. In this whitepaper from Kore, in collaboration with TecFutures, learn why smart city initiatives powered by IoT technology are doing just that. They’re enabling more efficient resource management, improved quality of life and reduced environmental impact, almost from day one. This whitepaper looks at:

• The state of smart city rollout – Today’s smart cities don’t have tech for tech’s sake. Instead, they leverage IoT connectivity to gather data that drives efficiency, sustainability and improved services for citizens
• What sustainable IoT solutions are – Take a deep dive into urbanisation, technological advancements like sensors, government initiatives, environmental concerns and the demand for enhanced services that are driving IoT innovation.
• The value of combined data – The relationship is no longer one-to-one. IoT as part of a linked network offers comprehensive insights and can enable coordinated responses to urban challenges like traffic management and lighting.
• The drivers of this shift – Connectivity, everything everywhere, sensor development, lower power needs, minimal maintenance, eSIM technology, analytics, AI and use case integration are all triggering the smart city revolution.
• Real world case studies – Kore shares a number of behind-the-scenes case studies with smart water hydrants, smart waste, smart windows and electric scooter deployments that truly showcase this shift to utility and green IoT.

Lastly, learn what it takes to play on this new field. This paper encourages you to start with a clear goal, get early buy-in, find the right implementation partners, create a phased rollout plan and design for the future with interoperability as standard.
