Vehicular Networks for

Smart Cities

The most cost-effective way to:

• offer free WiFi in urban transport,

increasing number of passengers,

reducing emissions and generating

additional revenue

• acquire real-time city-scale data

from cheap WiFi sensors to increase

safety and efficiency of municipal

operations (e.g. traffic, waste

collection, etc.)

Largest Vehicular

Network Worldwide!
