关于客户
The North Florida Transportation Planning Organization (TPO) is a regional entity responsible for transportation planning and coordination in the North Florida region, including Jacksonville, Florida. The organization plays a crucial role in developing and implementing transportation plans, programs, and projects that enhance mobility, safety, and accessibility for residents and businesses in the area. The TPO collaborates with various stakeholders, including local governments, transportation agencies, and the public, to address transportation challenges and improve the overall transportation system. With a focus on data-driven decision-making, the North Florida TPO aims to optimize transportation infrastructure, reduce congestion, and promote sustainable transportation solutions. The organization is committed to leveraging technology and innovative approaches to enhance transportation planning and ensure efficient and effective transportation services for the region's growing population.
挑战
A search for efficiency and modernization led the North Florida TPO to work with Urban SDK. While there was nothing objectively wrong with the organization’s systems and procedures, Executive Director Jeff Sheffield sought a more streamlined way to operate. The public sector normally lags behind the private sector due to politics and policy. Sheffield and his TPO colleagues felt that reporting was the natural, and easiest, place to start. The team sought to transform the organization’s Congestion Management Process (CMP) from a static, 5-year document to a dynamic report that updated itself more regularly. Their belief was that automated reporting would greatly reduce the time and money spent on data acquisition. In effect, the surplus of money could be used for a greater breadth of planning studies to benefit citizens within the North Florida TPO’s region.
解决方案
Urban SDK presented a comprehensive solution to the procedural changes Sheffield and his team desired. By aggregating open-sourced and premium data sources, Urban SDK’s platform provides flexibility to quickly compile large datasets. North Florida TPO used the platform to index historical and real-time data, and then present it on interactive maps, graphs, and scorecards. This included mobility data from ITS systems, connected vehicles, IoT, crowd-sourced providers, and infrastructure networks. Urban SDK also provided the North Florida TPO with a reliable warehouse of regional mobility data. This enables TPO officials to quickly share data with other organizations and contractors. As a result of working with Urban SDK, the North Florida TPO now monitors over 200 performance indicators. Its CMP is now presented on an interactive website that allows citizens to zoom to find traffic and transportation patterns in their part of the district. With its data warehouse, the organization has a single source of truth when working with fellow organizations in the region. This has led to a more streamlined process, better data-driven decisions, and an assurance that North Florida TPO is in compliance with FHWA guidelines.

Case Study
Turning A Stadium Into A Smart Building
Honeywell created what it called the “intelligent system” for the National Stadium in Beijing, China, turning the venue for the opening and closing events at the 2008 Summer Olympics into a “smart building.” Designed by highly controversial artist Ai Weiwei, the “Bird’s Nest” remains one of the most impressive feats of stadium architecture in the world. The 250,000 square meter structure housed more than 100,000 athletes and spectators at a time. To accommodate such capacity, China turned to Honeywell’s EBI Integrated Building Management System to create an integrated “intelligent system” for improved building security, safety and energy efficiency.
Case Study
Smart Street Light Network (Copenhagen)
Key stakeholders are taking a comprehensive approach to rethinking smart city innovation. City leaders have collaborated through partnerships involving government, research institutions and solution providers. The Copenhagen Solutions Lab is one of the leading organizations at the forefront of this movement. By bringing together manufacturers with municipal buyers, the Copenhagen Solutions Lab has catalyzed the development and deployment of next-generation smart city innovations. Copenhagen is leveraging this unique approach to accelerate the implementation of smart city solutions. One of the primary focus areas is LED street lighting.
Case Study
Airport SCADA Systems Improve Service Levels
Modern airports are one of the busiest environments on Earth and rely on process automation equipment to ensure service operators achieve their KPIs. Increasingly airport SCADA systems are being used to control all aspects of the operation and associated facilities. This is because unplanned system downtime can cost dearly, both in terms of reduced revenues and the associated loss of customer satisfaction due to inevitable travel inconvenience and disruption.
Case Study
IoT-based Fleet Intelligence Innovation
Speed to market is precious for DRVR, a rapidly growing start-up company. With a business model dependent on reliable mobile data, managers were spending their lives trying to negotiate data roaming deals with mobile network operators in different countries. And, even then, service quality was a constant concern.
Case Study
Buoy Status Monitoring with LoRa
The Netherlands are well-known for their inland waterways, canals, sluices and of course port activities. The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure indicates that there are thousands of buoys and fixed items in and near water environments that would profit from IoT monitoring. One of the problems with buoys for example, is that they get hit by ships and the anchor cable breaks. Without connectivity, it takes quite some time to find out that something has happened with that buoy. Not to mention the costs of renting a boat to go to the buoy to fix it. Another important issue, is that there is no real-time monitoring of the buoys at this moment. Only by physically visiting the object on the water, one gains insight in its status.
