Vogelkop Designs focuses on integrating the Internet of Things (IoT) into urban planning to enhance city living through real-time data analysis. This technology aims to improve traffic management, energy efficiency, and environmental quality while promoting sustainability in urban environments. As cities evolve with technology, the emphasis is on improving the social fabric and infrastructure based on live data to create more resilient urban spaces.

Internet of things and urban planning

2. People throughout known history have been moving in a
direction of progress. People prefer to settle at place
which meets expectations of their comfort level, for
some it is better job/ aspirations and to some it is better
healthcare. It is said that there would be only 30% of
rural areas in the world sooner.

The crucial task would be to understand and design
for social aspect in technologically driven cities

3. Resilient cities
Maximum utilization of
renewable resources
With IOT integrated urban planning , we can look forward to getting information at tip and
making city dwellers arrange or reschedule daily errands which in turn can smoothen traffic on
roads.
With all operations connected for the update, urban dweller can arrange facilities in advance.
IOT
Real data generation for
smooth functioning of cities
Less impact on carbon footprint with green
practices like using byproduct from solid waste,
car pool sharing options etc.

4. Internet of things is not imagination
anymore. Cities like Los Angles are
already synchronizing traffic lights to
reduce congestion. New York on the
other hand has developed quantified
community which will use real data for
monitoring traffic, waste production
and energy usage

5. Second tiered cities are seamlessly merging with
metro cities which in turn are growing boundless.
With the urban planning integrated with
technology, cities can be designed based on live
data enabling city managers to run it efficiently
For urban planner, IOT is boon since urban life
now can be improved with real time data

“National government may make agreements.
But change has to take place locally, where
more and more of us living our lives each
day”
–David Cadman, President 2006-
2015 ,ICLEI-Local governments for sustainability
Sharing communities , traffic analysis are
few things that will positively contribute
towards making cities more resilient

IOT can play active role in urban space due to
connectivity with end users via smart phone and
internet.
- With information accessible to end users, real
data can be used for energy optimization.
- Traffic on road can be channelized by informing
user about alternate routes as well as shared
vehicle options in advance
- Building can be managed for optimum energy
usage based on real data of people occupying
space
- Renewable energy can be shared with
neighbourhood depending on actual need and
supply data
- Environmental quality can be maintained by
linking various factors and mitigating impact by
implementing green practices.
- Social media can now play active role in
maintaining urban environment and avoid any
inconvenient developments to end users
