Smart Cities
Smart Cities are about leveraging technology to create better urban experiences for people. The Internet of Things (IoT) means that technology is increasingly in our lives and in our cities. This same technology helps us to understand the function of our cities like never before. We have new tools like data science, machine learning, advanced 3D mapping which when layered with behavioural psychology can assist us in understanding our cities deeper than ever before; Our sights empower architects, developers and governments to create better cities which in-turn leads to better urban experiences.
City Analytics
Think of it as google analytics for a city. We leverage the power of data science our team studies how the city functions, how efficient, how equitable, how well connected it is. Its effectiveness at facilitating trade, job creation and retail spend. We measure access to education, cultural facilities and study the success factors for great place making.
Access to Social Infrastructure / Precinct Place Making
Smart cities are more than just a place to live. They exist with the function of bring people together; to host meaningful social interaction. The more connected people are with each other and to their communities the more resilient they are when facing adverse events.
Too often the amenity sort is not available within the neighbourhood of origin. Parks, green spaces, schools, libraries, pools and even public transport hubs are not evenly distributed. Through this analysis we can guide the cities growth in corridors which can support the growth and highlight future capital projects in under serviced communities.
Services for Council’s and Government
We work along side councils and to understand their cities better, to find ways of leveraging smart city technology to create more sustainable environments and get the most out of their city specific data.
