Talking about smart cities is often like comparing apples and oranges;
they differ in vision, objectives, implementation, budgets, etc.

Barcelona started as an application-driven city, but has started recognizing
the need for deploying a common platform
“There are a lot of different silos,
a lot of sensor vendors, a lot of
different applications, and the first
thing we need is a common layer, the
main lesson we have learnt in Barcelona
is that the first thing you need to
become a successful smart city is to
start deploying a common platform.”
Francesca Bria, Barcelona’s chief technology
officer and digital commissioner https://www.ft.com/content/6d2fe2a8-722c-11e7-93ff-99f383b09ff9

transportation options, to travel
where and when they want
to go, conveniently and safely.”
