More and more cities and communities around the world are deploying sensors and integrating real-time information from citizens, generating tremendous amounts of data. The power of analytics is essential to making sense of this growing mountain of data created by the Internet of Things, and helping to make cities smarter.
WHAT IS THE THE INTERNET OF THINGS?
The Internet of Things is the concept of everyday objects – from industrial machines to wearable devices – using built-in sensors to gather data and take action on that data across a network. So it’s a building that uses sensors to automatically adjust heating and lighting. Or production equipment alerting maintenance personnel to an impending failure. Simply put, the Internet of Things is the future of technology that can make our lives more efficient.
