IoT Solutions for Smart Cities

Smart city IoT solutions - ScienceSoft

A smart city system gathers and analyzes data from sensors and smart devices to enable efficient management of urban processes (e.g., transportation, lighting). With 12-year experience in IoT, ScienceSoft designs and implements end-to-end IoT solutions to bring smart city vision to reality.

We Deliver Solutions for Smart Cities of Different Sizes

We analyze the needs and specificities of large, mid-sized and small cities to come up with the relevant implementation strategy and deliver IoT solutions applicable to every city regardless of its size.

Smart Applications We Implement

Road traffic

We provide our clients with more than just traffic monitoring solutions. With advanced analytics tools and control applications, our smart traffic systems take intelligent actions based on the careful “study” of traffic flow, bringing human intervention down to a minimum.

Utilities

Our team develops solutions that facilitate the work of utility providers, allowing them to get precise meter readings over a telecom network. It helps them to bill accurately for the amount of energy and water consumed, reveal consumption patterns and redistribute resources accordingly.

Lighting

We assist our clients in transforming lighting systems. Deploying sensors across the street lighting system and connecting the sensors to the cloud helps to adapt the “behavior” of the streetlights to the outer conditions. As a result, they switch on and off when needed, consuming less energy and bringing down energy costs.

Waste management

We support our clients in keeping cities clean. With smart waste management solutions, waste containers “tell” when they need to be emptied, releasing truck drivers from emptying half-full containers.

Environment

Our team stands on guard of healthier environment. We deliver solutions for monitoring air and water quality. With a dynamic map of air and water quality, city administrations can develop measures to maintain environmental indexes at optimal levels.

Safety

For enhancing public safety, we connect CCTV-cameras, microphones and movement sensors to a smart city platform and power it with robust analytics tools. It helps to identify probable crime scenes and successfully track perpetrators.

Public transport

We leverage the power of IoT and big data to improve public transport schedules, balance public transport load, improve the routes and work out more convenient smart payment methods, like smart cards and mobile payment.

The Financial Times Includes ScienceSoft USA Corporation in the List of the Americas’ Fastest-Growing Companies 2023

For the second year in a row, ScienceSoft USA Corporation ranks among 500 American companies with the highest revenue growth. This achievement is the result of our unfailing commitment to provide high-quality IT services and create best-value solutions that meet and even exceed our clients’ expectations.

Create Outstanding Citizen Experience

We believe that smart cities are more than just automated cities. We deliver tailor-made turnkey solutions that make smart city benefits visible for citizens. We offer:

IoT-based smart city platform

aimed at improving service delivery and optimizing city infrastructure.

Service management solutions

intended to identify problems before they pose any inconveniences to citizens and address citizens’ queries in a timely manner.

Citizen portals

focused on engaging citizens and creating a community for city dwellers.

Optimized traffic

due to traffic lights monitoring, ML-identified traffic congestion patterns and respective adjustments.

Improved city infrastructure

thanks to predictive maintenance of roads, bridges, and buildings.

Efficient energy and water consumption

due to controlled street lighting, water usage analytics and prediction (by month, by hour of the day, etc.).

Improved community safety

due to automated identification and reporting of risky driving, identification of criminals based on face-recognition.

Streamlined waste collection and recycling

thanks to smart dumpsters reporting their fullness, optimized waste truck usage, waste sorting using artificial neural networks, etc.

Reduced carbon footprint

due to smart consumption of natural resources, city transportation and traffic optimization.

Informed decision-making

regarding city infrastructure improvements and investments due to the smart city analytics insights.

Growing citizen and business engagement

in city governance and infrastructure development thanks to automated addressing of the service requests and justified infrastructure improvements.

Substantial investments in smart city technologies

With our experience in IoT-based smart city development, we’ve come up with the ways to reduce investments in field components and connectivity without losing functional performance. We unite sensors in sensor nodes, so that they share a common power source and processing unit, and wirelessly connect them to a reliable network, sparing investments in network cables.

Poor integration of IoT smart city solutions into current processes

Implementing IoT-based smart city solutions, we think about available infrastructure and processes. We adapt the existing infrastructure to suit smart city services without rebuilding it.

Lack of benefit for citizens

We apply iterative approach to make benefits visible for citizens sooner. Breaking large-scale projects down to several sub-projects, we ensure more efficient implementation and faster payoff. With citizen portals and service management solutions, we help our customers to create a common space for city residents and timely respond to citizens’ queries.
