Corporation of Chennai is preparing a proposal towards Smart City Challenge which would include city wide smart urban solutions as well as identification of areas within the city for its implementation.

Your views, opinion and solutions on urban issues faced by Chennai would not only support a better tomorrow for Chennaites, it will also make Chennai a strong contender for getting shortlisted as one of the first 20 cities in India to implement Smart City Solutions in Phase 1.

Purchasing and allotting the heavy vacuum cleaner for every 10 km of roads in chennai. So that it could absorb the dust and sand particle accumulated on the road. It will considerably reduce the particles suspended in the air (air pollution). The dust particles in the air can cause abrasions, or scratches, on the cornea of the eye, these injuries cause infection or damage the vision of the persons. Most common victims are bike riders.

- implementing new ideas like allocating premium spaces for tourists (in beach, worship places), launching mini double deck tourist buses for sight seeing, creating new tourist places (declaring some worship places as tourist places), developing lot of open spaces (large center squares and circles), creating culture park that provides food, music, dance and other cultural activities, - improving existing tourist places

Chennai is known for heritage, culture and tourism. If we leverage this to make Chennai as smart city, Chennai can be the no. 1 tourist destination in the world. Some ideas are - passing heritage act, preserving heritage sites - improving tourist touch points (educating tourists facing people to be tourist friendly, controlling tourist destinations for cleanliness and security)

With the arrival of smart thermostats and building management systems, there are now millions of buildings with some of the pieces needed to be smart, on the cusp of being able to ‘talk’ and ‘listen.’

Developing an intelligent city platform is very important. The city’s digital control system will accommodate an expanding list of applications, from managing electricity demand to routing traffic to finding a parking spot, to name just a few.

A smart city is a system of systems – water, power, transportation, emergency response, built environment, etc.– with each one affecting all the others. It is those insights – presenting, perfecting and predicting – that enhance the livability, workability and sustainability of a smart city.

We need to benefit from a large network of Near-field Communication (NFC) equipped point of sales with the roll-out of contactless cards technology. It means hundreds of merchants are already capable of accepting mobile payments and wallets for seamless consumer experience and value added services, but also cashless cities are able to reduce frauds and benefiting from better insights on their citizen purchasing journeys.

Should correlate multiple data sources to predict crime like the way we predict weather. Or predict which expensive transformers are about to fail on the power grid and which will still be good for years to come.
