挑战
The town government of North Kingstown recognized the need for a system that allowed citizens to report problems or concerns anonymously. This was in response to the popular opinion in the community for more information about the government as well as accountability for the government. The town started the search for a third-party system at the recommendation of a state auditor and outside consultants.
关于客户
North Kingstown is the 13th largest municipality in Rhode Island, United States. It offers an outstanding and affordable quality of life with walking neighborhoods, outstanding restaurants, numerous recreational activities, an outstanding school system, and great shopping. It is a wonderful place to live, visit, and do business. The town government, led by Town Manager Michael Embury and Director of Technology Jason Albuquerque, is committed to promoting open government through technology.
解决方案
After researching various solutions, the town’s audit committee chose NAVEX Global’s EthicsPoint Hotline and Case Management. During the installation, Albuquerque worked with NAVEX Global’s Implementation Services team to customize the system. Embury and the town council and auditors were able to customize specific details to accommodate the precise needs for the town itself. The system is intricate and comprehensive; they can analyze the data, and there are no administrative time requirements on their side.

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
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.

China Mobile Smart Parking
Smart Parking, powered by NB-IoT technology, is making it easier for drivers to find free parking spots. Cities can better manage their parking assets and maximize the revenue available to them as a result. Drivers searching for parking create congestion and pollution by circling and hunting for available parking. Smart Parking services are able to significantly ease these problems by guiding a driver directly to a parking space.

Barcelona Case Study
Barcelona’s heavy traffic and its associated high levels of pollution were the primary factors that motivated some companies and universities to work on strategies for improving traffic in the city centre. Bitcarrier is one of the technologies involved in the In4Mo Project, whose main objective is to develop the applications that form the core of smart mobility, one of the fundamental pillars of the smart city concept.
