Each city has its own
Cardiovascular system (traffic, mass transit) ::
Skeletal system (infrastructure) ::
Respiratory system (energy) ::
Digestive system (waste) ::
Primitive Nervous system (telecom) ::
In order for a city to provide access to its
intelligence behind the knowledge and become
a Smart City, the development of the
Intelligence System that connects the central
nervous system to a brain is required
the city as a human body! Smart Cities!

Digital DNA
Smart Buildings
Big Data!
The building blocks to effectively and efficiently use city data will
ultimately reside in a city’s ability to repurpose its existing data
and documents associated with the Built Environment
Existing Municipal Built Environment data:
Building Departments, Engineering Departments, Land Departments,
Planning Departments, Tax Departments, Postal Services, they all
collect and manage vast amounts of data that when viewed as a
whole, create the virtual representation of your physical city
