Fleet management and maintenance represent a major cost center for cities around the world. Remote diagnostics and predictive maintenance solutions, however, can help to deliver major savings as well as provide real-time visibility on fleets – from trucks to buses, and other city-run vehicles. To deliver maximum benefit, the solutions need to be powered by advanced data management and analytics systems. The data management challenge is only getting tougher, especially given the proliferation of the connected vehicles and devices that collect the data. Luke Antoniou, senior editor, SmartCitiesWorld, talks to Cindy Maike, vice president of industry solutions and value management, Cloudera. 

CAVs and the data they produce could ultimately become a key part of the wider connected communities. SmartCitiesWorld sits down with Michael Ger, Managing Director, Manufacturing and Automotive at Cloudera, and Douglas O’Flaherty, Global Ecosystem Leader at IBM Storage, to discuss the autonomous vehicle market, its opportunities today and what lies in wait for the decade ahead.

There’s a big opportunity for cities to better harness the sharing economy to achieve municipal goals and give power back to the people, Rustrum says.

In the latest episode of the SmartCitiesWorld podcast, we talk to Ben Green, author of The Smart Enough City: Putting Technology in Its Place to Reclaim Our Urban Future.

He offers insights into why technology is not an end in itself and how cities can be “smart enough,” using technology to promote democracy and equity.

Cities need the right people to lead their transformation – they can’t do it with technology alone. What are the challenges?
