Smart City


Edmonton

The city of Edmonton in Canada, found more innovative ways to use its available data and technology, including social media. The local authority determined that by integrating, analysing and transmitting relevant data, decision-making across the city could be improved. Edmonton also collaborated with IBM to find more innovative ways to use social media as part of a package of measures to enhance the quality of transport in the city. Traffic and road safety initiatives in particular were quick to benefit from the provision of timely transport information via more channels to more people. The strategy provided a channel for disseminating real-time travel information as well as acting as a critical feedback mechanism, with citizens able to report on road closures and accidents. The Edmonton initiative promotes smoother, safer journeys and reinforces civic engagement by encouraging citizens to become the eyes and ears of the city. ‎[30]
