Tianjin Binhai at the vanguard of smart city
Through a giant screen displaying real-time data about various aspects of urban management and public services, people can really sense that the Binhai New Area, north of Tianjin municipality, is rising as an excellent example of smart city in China.
The monitor is part of an intelligent operation center newly opened in June in the area, which covers 2,270 square kilometers, 300 million residents and innumerable companies.
To provide better service and manage the area in a smarter way, the Intelligent Binhai Operation and Management Center has applied "1+4+N" solutions, which refer to one "city brain" to collect and analyze big data, four major platforms to offer services of different kinds and online applications used to deliver the services.
Powered by internet of things and big data, the center has integrated comprehensive urban management, emergency response, public and business services, data analysis and application and many other functions.
The residents, enterprises and city administrators have been the direct beneficiaries of the intellectualization.
