Barcelona developed the urban platform in 2013
as a new ICT architecture that provides a single, transversal platform that
interconnects the entire city. The project was proposed to create a sustainable
city model that can manage different resources in an efficient way, including
water, public services, temperature regulation, CO2 emissions, civil works,
humidity and energy efficiency.
The platform has three components; Sentilo (raw
source data), City OS (intelligence component) and Applications (City Council
and third parties as output information providers). Thanks to the use of an
intelligent process engine that connects different events in real time,
emergency situations can be anticipated and responses from different services
coordinated in a more efficient and expedited way.
