 Welcome from Intagio 2019 in Stuttgart. At the Smart City Solutions part of Intagio's sensor data are in focus at the Smart City Solutions Dialogue at Wednesday with our partner Fraunhofer, USP, Thomas Ausländer. Join us. Welcome. Thank you very much. What have sensor data to do with the Smart City? Yes, we have to think about what makes a city smart. And I think the word smart does not only mean a little bit intelligent but also in order to do that, to have these smart or intelligent applications you need some knowledge. And you can only get knowledge from data. And that is why you need data coming from sensors and this data need to be processed in order to get information out of that to qualify information, to know about uncertainties of the information such that decision making is possible. What are the challenges for the cities? The sensors, the collecting, the handling of the data? Probably all of them. So depending on the use case you already have a lot of data and maybe there are already existing solutions but these solutions are only very, very vertical. So for one particular use case you have one solution. If you want to have another use case to be implemented maybe you have to implement another type of solution. So in order to make this much more efficient you need an organized sensor data management with well-defined interfaces. And this is the problem to be solved because for this you need good architecture and a good approach and a good methodology. And you have a solution for NOVA? Yeah, we think that the key to do that for various use cases in an efficient way is to look for open sensor data management and open here means data management that is based on international standards. Define how you communicate but also what to communicate. That is the content of the data, the meaning of the data, the whole data model behind sensors. All this has to be standardized. And only if you do that in an organized fashion across multiple domains then you really have an efficient approach. What are the highlights of the dialogue Wednesday at Smart City Solutions? Yeah, the highlights are exactly going into this direction. We want to demonstrate and also to explain why open sensor data management is important. So there are representatives of the OpenGIS Spatial Consortium and we will explain one of the most promising standards which is the SensorThings API standard and also implementations of that. There's for example the Fraunhofer OpenSauce SensorThings API server which is an open source solution of SensorThings API which is already used in various cities in Germany. So we also have representatives of German cities that explain their needs, their requirements, why sensor data management is important, what type of solutions and applications they need, what are the business models behind. And on the other hand we have presentations coming from those who have to implement. So to bring together the users and the developers, this is the main key objective of tomorrow's workshop. More on Wednesday at the Smart City Solutions Dialogue Thomas Uslender. Thank you for joining us. Thank you very much and please visit us at this small workshop tomorrow. And thank you for watching. Bye.
