The book had been published as part of an EU Smart Cities MarketPlace initiative, led by the Major Cities of Europe, Open and Agile Smart Cities and the DataVaults project, and is now available in the River Publisher Series in Energy Sustainability and Efficiency.
According to DataVaults, this book sets out to address some of the issues that a smart city needs to overcome to make use of the data currently available to them. It addresses the question of how this can be enhanced with emerging technologies that enable a citizen to share their personal data.
The book provides answers for those within a smart city, advising their mayors or leaders on introducing new technologies. Additionally, this publication contributes to the new model for the European Data Economy. Through elaborate case studies it shows how a city can offer better services and new revenue streams can occur.
Finally, it addresses the challenge of assigning a value on data and concludes by looking at the new emerging technologies that will help cities towards achieving their carbon-neutral targets.
