Smart Cities IoT Vertical Kit

The Smart Cities IoT Vertical Kit allows real time monitoring of key parameters in cities, such as sound and light to make noise urban maps, or to develop adaptive lighting systems.

Weather control and air quality applications can be carried out thanks to humidity and temperature sensors and pollution detectors (NO₂, CO, O₃).

The data is sent to the Internet by the GW using Ethernet and 4G radios.

Meshlium visualization plugin allows to:

• Visualize real-time data.
• Show measured data graphically between different time periods. It is possible to select for example last week, or last month data.
• Compare different parameters in the same node, and check their historical evolution in a comparative way.
• Geolocate the nodes via GPS and a communication module, and check in a visual map the data measured for each node.
• Sensor data is stored internally using the Meshlium MySQL database. Data can be extracted to a third Cloud Platform later.

Know more about the Meshlium Visualizer at the Meshlium Technical Guide. Section 16.

* There is no SSH access in the IoT Vertical Kits.

Meshlium Sensor Visualizer interface includes 100 times free access limit.

After 100 log-ins a license fee can be acquired to keep on using it.

Application examples

Smart Parking project in Montpellier to relieve traffic congestion and reduce car parking search.

Ten minutes searching for car parking several times daily means more than 240 hours per year, and an average of 700 complete days in your life. the French company Synox has shared all its knowledge and know-how to Montpellier Mediterranean Metropolis with new and innovative urban services and particularly a smart parking solution, developed with Libelium's technology, named “Connected Parking”.

Monitoring aquatic and environmental parameters at the coldest weather conditions to encourage salmon spawning and reduce pollution in Oslo.

Being Norway one of the world's largest exporters of fish, activities such as trout and salmon spawn become crucial. As one of the first ThingFarm has developed an IoT solution for monitoring the water quality and conditions for living organisms, fishes and plants in rivers and sea. Within the last months of the year, salmons and trouts spawn in rivers all over Norway. To know if all parameters are adapted and stable for the fishes to spawn eggs, knowing the river and water conditions is of great value.

The city of Tilburg (NL) becomes smart and sustainable teaming with Libelium and Ericsson to develop an IoT environmental control platform.

Libelium and Ericsson have joined efforts to check the environmental status of the water standards, the air quality and the noise levels measured in several zones of Tilburg city (NL) to be visualized on a public website.

Athens International Airport trusts EXM and Libelium's IoT platform to enhance environmental monitoring.

Libelium and Ex Machina have worked together to deploy a sensors network in Athens International Airport that enhances its environmental monitoring capabilities by augmenting existing air quality monitoring outside the airport fence and helping determine the location of the aircraft on the airfield.

Libelium's IoT sensors platform helps to control environmental impact on Palma de Mallorca's harbor to become a smart tourist destination.

Turning Palma de Mallorca into a smart tourist destination by improving the quality of its environment is the main aim of the project in which Libelium and Mallorcawifi.com have been working together. To do so, a wide Waspmote Plug and Sense Smart Cities sensors network has been deployed all around Mallorca harbor to measure the impact of its activity.
