From trashcans to Street View: the everyday data that’s saving lives

/
You might think that smart cities are all about operational efficiency, but we don’t. We believe that smart cities are about people and their data can save lives.

When energy is a problem, could data be a solution?

We’ve lost count of the many and inventive ways that organisations look to meet their sustainability goals, keep on top of costs and transform to operate more efficiently and effectively. And like the old adage about not seeing the forest for the trees, we know that quite often they are overlooking one obvious, but significant change that can address all three issues in one single action: through better management of energy consumption.

It’s a smart time to be luxe
