While the world is becoming more connected, cities continue to have issues due to the rapid urbanization of the world, economic constraints, and the need for environmental sustainability.
Some key stats to point out:
Today, 50% of the world’s population lives in cities
By 2050, 70% of the population will live in cities
In order to attract and retain knowledge economy workers and businesses, cities need to make themselves livable, vibrant, improved mobility, provide good environmental conditions, etc., In order to achieve that, they need to manage their infrastructure in the most effective way.
Cities are taking steps to improve their infrastructure, although most of them have a ‘siloed’ approach. They invest in one problem at a time creating duplication in infrastructure and losing value of cross domain interaction.
This approach is neither scalable nor economical and does not benefit from cross-vertical sharing of data and services (For example, congestion management solution can’t leverage the video feeds from cameras installed for security solution)
The incremental decision making that Cities make can lead to VERY expensive solutions as each decision comes with a proprietary protocol, proprietary network, and in many cases the need for additional power and network cables. What is needed is a shift to a unified, standards based common architecture that can support today’s needs and expand to more uses as the decisions are made. Cloud, wireless, and Internet Protocol were exactly designed for incremental and linear investment in infrastructure and applications.
Cisco Smart+Connected City Infrastructure Management provides a common integrated platform and moves cities from “siloed” services to one that can share and leverage resources: from the basic infrastructure platform and common data to shared information assets such as video and management systems.
Four key categories of the city infrastructure are: Transportation, Safety & Security, Environment, and Utilities. From these themes we are working with cities to develop solutions to help them manage expenses and to be more responsive.
The Cisco Smart+Connected CIM architecture brings together different city management vertical solutions on top of the existing Smart+Connected City Wi-Fi network. The City Wifi network is the single foundational network infrastructure, which facilitates an information exchange between resources and applications across different domains. The CIM platform is the common data layer that enables the Data from different sensing devices to be aggregated, analyzed and published for application consumption – so cross-domain intelligence is achieved and decision making can be improved across verticals.
Here you see our Smart+Connected Communities Solutions Portfolio. The vertical solutions currently offered are:
Smart+Connected Parking – This solution gives citizens live parking visibility through the use of smart apps and provides cities with improved planning & added revenue through increased parking rates, all powered by analytics.
Smart+Connected City Traffic – helps cities monitor and manage traffic and quickly identify traffic incidents so that they can be resolved faster
Smart+Connected City Safety and Security – allows cities to detect security incidents faster and to shorten response time.
Smart+Connected City Location Services - City planners and officials can gather new data and insights of the city by deploying location-based services together with geo-spatial capabilities. Such analysis can lead to improved long-term planning decisions. City officials can use the information for city planning and get a comprehensive view of the city.
Smart+Connected City Lighting – helps cities manage their street lighting to reduce energy and maintenance costs. Integrated with the traffic solution, S+C City Lighting can be used to help identify where traffic incidents occur, guiding first responders to the scene (via flashing lights) and alerting motorists of the incident so they can be rerouted.
Our newest solution is Smart+Connected City Operations Center: which provides data visualization, management and collaboration across our solutions and multiple key verticals of CIM.
As cities continue to grow in number, size, and complexity, urban infrastructure and the services that rely on it are increasingly stressed. Of all urban utilities, street lighting comprises one of the largest expenses in a municipality’s utility bill, accounting between 10% and 38% of the total, according to New York City Global Partners. Furthermore, electricity prices have increased significantly worldwide, which add to a city’s expenses.
Light emitting diode (LED) light bulbs can help a city save on its electricity bills because of their long life span and lower consumption of electricity, but they are more expensive than traditional light bulbs. While the falling cost of LED bulbs is driving sales and allowing adoption at a faster rate, LED lighting is still somewhat expensive relative to traditional lighting and cities are looking to offset the expense and increase the return on investment.
Cities are looking for a solution to help reduce lighting expenses and at the same time improve operating efficiencies while minimizing upfront investment.

Value Prop
1) Reduced number of workstations: Conventional systems require numerous workstations. Smart+Connected City Operations Center maximizes real-time monitoring and control efficiency from one workstation through the synchronized control of high resolution blueprints, images, streaming camera data, electric and electronic signals, and system alerts - allowing for a more precise interaction between all relevant data.
2) No additional hardware for added cameras: Conventional systems face an acute cost increase due to increased hardware and integration costs. For example, to effectively process video feeds from 1,000 cameras, conventional systems require all hardware from image processors to video walls be directly proportionate to the number of cameras. No additional costs are incurred with the Smart+Connected City Operations Center simplifying CCTV system installation, expansion, and operation – reducing CAPEX
3) No additional integration costs - Additional Expenses traditionally incur when the number of cameras are increased and hardware reconfigurations are required. With Cisco’s end-to-end integrated platform, no integration costs are needed for added cameras, as all required hardware is unified into a single plug-in system, curtailing integration costs between hardware and systems and enabling maximum cost reductions with system scalability. In addition, the platform allows simple and accessible integration with other independent control systems through a single integration point
4) Bandwidth reductions & system performance- Performance of conventional systems drastically decrease with the increase in number of cameras. Smart+Connected City Operations Center maintains its performance regardless of increased number of cameras due to IPQ technology. In addition, bandwidth usage is reduced by 97.5%

Consolidation happens on network and sensor level
The Internet of Everything is the next step in the evolution of the Internet that connects people, process, data and things, to better protect cities against crime, terrorism, and civil unrest. Here the value of IoE on City Safety:
New things are connected such as IP Cameras, vehicle sensors, face sensors, etc.
From these things, new data flows including video, analytics, social media
All of this combines to help improve the process alerting officials to crime trends, ensuring they have real-time awareness which then impacts budgets
This helps people such as city planners, citizens and law enforcement to make better decisions
The overall value results in less crime, sharing of city data, increased economic growth and improved operational efficiencies.
