Problem
Urban planners and municipal agencies often lack timely, granular data on how people move through and use city spaces, making it difficult to assess congestion, event impacts, park utilization, and economic activity for informed decision‑making.
Solution
CityData provides a suite of data‑driven products that collect, process, and visualize high‑resolution mobility and footfall information for public spaces. Using rugged, solar‑powered IoT sensors and aggregated GPS datasets, the platform delivers real‑time counts of people, vehicles, and animals across streets, parks, events, and commercial districts. AI models infer visit patterns, economic impact, and multimodal flow, enabling the creation of digital twins for scenario analysis and investment planning. The resulting dashboards and APIs give city officials, transportation planners, and economic development teams actionable insights while ensuring privacy compliance.
Target Audience
Primary customers are municipal governments, transportation authorities, and urban economic development agencies that need data‑backed insights for planning, operations, and policy evaluation.
