parking
It is necessary to adopt a strong parking strategy, especially in the city center. For example, sensors installed on light poles can monitor parking space vacancies and inform people through mobile applications where the nearest parking space is. The same system can be used to pay parking fees (and may impose fines if necessary).
air quality
Air pollution directly or indirectly reduces the quality of life in cities. Therefore, municipal authorities around the world are seeking urgent solutions to this public health issue.
The first step is to create a map of the problem area and pictures of which pollutants are at work. With this information, mayors can more fully address this issue.
emergency response
Smart bars can help reduce emergency service response time in two ways. The first one is the SOS button, which is a fast and easy solution for those who have witnessed accidents. The emergency response center subsequently used closed-circuit television surveillance to enable them to provide the most comprehensive services as soon as possible
Crime monitoring
Closed circuit television has long been used to improve the safety of streets in big cities. The smart pole has added a massive closed-circuit television network, covering more angles and making it more difficult to disrupt. The lenses of these cameras can be used as evidence in some countries' courts.
Digital signage
Last but not least, municipal authorities can use smart poles as fast communication channels. If a pole is equipped with a touch screen, it can even serve as a hub for bilateral communication - such as surveys, questionnaires, and improvement ideas. These contribute to creating a better environment for the flourishing development of digital citizens.
Where to start?
A smart rod can integrate all of these, and even more sensors, but that doesn't mean it must be so.
Each city has its own problems to solve, and the advantage of smart poles is that they are highly customizable. Cities can determine their priorities and then add them to the smart sensor combinations they install.
Smart light poles can be the first step in creating an intelligent ecosystem in any city - an ecosystem based on reliable and real-time data. In the 21st century, cities no longer need to play guessing games after the fact. They can provide better solutions for citizens with less time, energy, and resources. Isn't this a very smart idea?
