•Economic development, business locate where human and physical capital is – i.e. cities
• Developed world has underinvested in its cities; the developing world needs new urban infrastructure ($41T needed by 2030)
• Rise of “new” cities (MASDAR, New Songho City, GIFT, KAEC, etc.)
•Global financial crisis is spurring government stimulus, creating new jobs
•At the end of 2008, 50% of the world population lived in a city
•Urban population will almost double between 2010-50 (to 6.4B!)
•18 countries in the world with contracting populations (in 2050, 44)
•Asia will become 50% urban in next 15 years
•Rapid urbanization is creating high stresses for many Asian cities, in turn driving the construction of hundreds of new cities
• Convergence of pervasive digital networks, sensors, advanced analytics
• There are over 4 billion mobile cellular subscribers in the world today (60% penetration)
• Location-based services and social networking continue to grow in capability and popularity
• IT has made it possible for global enterprises to operate anywhere in the world
•Drive for cities to cut carbon emissions and increase the energy they get from renewable sources
•There will be 1.2 billion cars on the road by 2015 (~1 car/6 people)
•95% of the world's cities still dump raw sewage into their waters

IBM Smarter Cities
Description:
Provides a domain services request management system with Executive, domain Operations, and Agency dashboards that include domain KPI reports with trends and analysis of event and domain data.
Centralized environment for planning, organizing, monitoring and sharing information continuously in response to changing conditions.
Allows for drill down capabilities on details of service requests, team members and assets assigned and status – which is also available in a geospatial context for situational awareness.
Provides for integrated collaboration within the views and as an element on the dashboard.
Event and directive management is achieved through integrated incident management, reporting and collaboration & communication.
Customer pain addressed:
Domain leaders today manage incidents and view KPIs / reports through disparate systems
Lack of domain to domain coordination and collaboration in the planning and execution of events
Solution software key components:
1. Incident Reporting & Tracking
2. Situation Awareness & Reporting
3. Real Time Collaboration
4. Resource & Critical Asset Management
5. Cloud Enabled

IBM Smarter Cities
Description:
SVS , Smarter Video Surveillance, the ability to analyze and identify potential public safety issues from CCTV supplied footage.
The SVS solution can monitor feeds from CCTV cameras and search for pre defined issues. This removes the need for constant human monitoring
The SVS solution can playback CCTV feeds to flow a issue from point to point after the issue. Consider a stolen car, the SVS system can analyze footage from CCTV feed to CCTV feed to pin point the direction the car was driven
The SVS solution can alert in real time the operator when a pre defined event occurs. This can be displayed on a main screen and the event can be stored for trend analysing.
Customer pain addressed:
CCTV Camera hardware and installations are becoming cheaper to install while the cost ownership of human monitor is static or increasing in cost
Technology evolution in the CCTV space has been centred around hardware and not software analyzing

Key Value:
• Traffic analysis capability to allow for better management of traffic , improvement of commuter experience, reduction of pollution and improve the ability for emergency responders and public safety officials to act quickly
• Ability to aggregate information across multiple intra-city geographies/locales as well as information from a diverse set of data input source types and vendors
• A data source agnostic , standard information model on top of which vertical value applications can be created with ease and with ability to scale
• Ability to access historical and real-time information about all traffic performance, conditions, configurations and incidents
Customer Pain Addressed:
• Existing traffic data systems, ATMS and TMC applications each cover limited intra-city geographic/locale scope
• Integrations between traffic data systems, ATMS and TMC applications that function across the same city are either non-existent or limited
• There is a diversity of traffic data systems in terms of types, vendors and data abstraction levels which is posing a great challenge to the creation of vertical traffic applications traffic flow optimization, improving commuter experience, pollution reduction & emergency response
• There is no way to have city-wide visibility for traffic performance, conditions, configurations and incidents
Solution Software key components:
1. Standards based integration data capture systems
2. Traffic data model and repository
3. High-performance access to data for visibility, advanced analytics in built & add-on functionality
