Revision history [back]

There are different levels of involvement of cities with FIWARE.

• First of all, there are two cities that have bet to use FIWARE technologies under a commercial contract, Valencia and Santander. That means that these technologies are being used in production.
• During the last couple of years, more than 15 cities all over Europe have been experimenting with FIWARE technologies:
  • publishing open data (static with CKAN, dynamic with context / NGSI, or even connecting IoT devices).
  • and developing (themselfes or through third parties) pilots and prototypes using the data and various Generic Enablers. Some examples
  • a crowd detection system that analyzes video streams and generates NGSI context data about people moving around in the streets.
  • a smartphone as a sensor system that gathers data from advaced smartphones and aggregates it into a web application.
  • thousands of sensors from Smart Santander connected to the platform.
  • a dashboard for energy consumption data from a campus building
  • a open311 over ngsi wrapper and application -etc.
• FIWARE is supporting Open and Agile Cities initiative, where NGSI and CKAN platforms are promoted http://connectedsmartcities.eu/open-and-agile-smart-cities/ . So far, almost 50 cities have joined OASC initiative.
