Supporting Smart City initiatives with data visualization
Smart City Lübeck is a case study exploring the possibilities and technologies that enable the city to digitize and connect its internal processes efficiently. In partnership with Smart City Lübeck, easy.bi developed a custom web application for data visualization, helping city officials leverage data to enhance urban management and decision-making.
One of the key challenges facing Smart City Lübeck was the need for a simple and effective way to visualize existing city data. With a growing volume of demographic, traffic, location, and sensor data, city officials required a platform that could integrate and display this information in an intuitive and meaningful way.
Our contribution
To address this challenge, easy.bi developed a solution that evaluates demographic, traffic, and location data while incorporating city-specific sensor data. These datasets were connected through a data lake using FIWARE and CKAN, ensuring meaningful linkage and contextualization. The data was then visualized using a Drupal-based content management system, supported by advanced data visualization frameworks.
easy.bi developed a robust data visualization framework using Drupal, enabling city officials to easily display and evaluate data from multiple sources. This application provides the ability to analyze relationships, identify trends, and make informed decisions that improve various aspects of urban management.
The journey to success
The success of the Smart City Lübeck project was built on a foundation of collaboration, innovation, and a shared vision for transforming urban management. From the outset, we worked closely with Lübeck's city officials, data analysts, and IT leads to understand their needs and challenges.
By leveraging modern technologies such as FIWARE, CKAN, and D3.js, the platform ensures scalability, reliability, and user-friendliness. Continuous feedback loops and iterative development allowed us to refine the system to meet the city's evolving needs effectively.
The impact
The implementation of this data visualization platform has significantly enhanced Lübeck’s ability to manage and analyze city data. By integrating multiple data sources through a unified system, city officials can:
- Identify trends and relationships in urban data.
- Make data-driven decisions to improve infrastructure and services.
- Enhance transparency and engagement by providing public access to relevant city data, such as parking availability and environmental sensor readings.
This case study highlights the value of well-designed software solutions in driving smart city initiatives and improving overall quality of life for residents.
