RUMBLE Partner Issues White Paper on How to Approach Smart City Projects

RUMBLE strategic partner, Cradlepoint, recently sponsored a white paper (A Sensible Approach to Smart City Projects) showing the most successful smart city initiatives have been those that started small.

“Some companies will come and try to create a global dashboard that tries to take data from every part of a city and analyze it,” said Ken Hosac, vice president of IoT strategy and business development, Cradlepoint. “The approach we’ve been taking is to find a specific targeted use case and make that use case better, or enable a use case that didn’t exist before.”

This more “sensible approach” of refining one service at a time instead of undertaking a massive project upfront has overcome the hesitancy of city managers taking advantage of smart city technologies.

The White Paper explores various facets of smart city initiatives, including:

• Examples of smart city technologies
• The potential benefits of smart cities to enhance the quality of living for its citizens
• Common and pragmatic first steps in embarking upon smart city initiatives
• Smart city pitfalls to avoid
