Smart Cities
SAP has new technologies, applications and software that support the next generation of smart cities. For example, the analytical cloud application Vehicle Insights links vehicle data with sensor data to provide meaningful information on driver behavior and efficiency.
Mobility and logistics service providers can keep an eye on the condition of their vehicles in real time, while at the same time taking environmental pollution and traffic problems into account.
The TwoGo app illustrates how software can be used for carpooling. With the CityApp, SAP and the city of Nuremberg have presented a solution for crowdsourcing. It allows citizens to report defects and damage in their immediate surroundings.
Algorithms link these reports with data such as the volume of traffic in the affected district. City administrations can use this information to optimize their processes.
