WHAT PART DOES MOBILITY PLAY IN MAKING THE CITY SMARTER?

The ability to work on ‘traffic data’ is the foundation upon which we’re building tomorrow’s mobility: vehicle counts, average speed, density. The challenge is to know how to continuously capture and analyze these data, to develop near-immediate-forecasting systems that let users decide and act in real time.

WHAT IS YOUR PART IN THE OPTIMOD PROJECT?

Phoenix ISI is involved upstream in forecasting matters. We collect and analyze, in real-time, all the traffic data sourced from more than 500 points. Every six minutes, we generate a forecast, detailing everything that will happen along the network in the sixty minutes to come.

WHAT IS SO UNIQUE ABOUT THE TESTING DONE IN GREATER LYON?We’ve been broadening our expertise in analysis and fore-casting of highway and suburban-area traffic for nearly 20 years. City traffic is more complex and we had to reinvent and reconfigure our tools and algorithms to fit those patterns. It’s a bit like the weather in the plains versus in the mountains: In the mountains, the weather changes very quickly and demands greater responsiveness.

HOW DOES THIS COLLABORATION BENEFIT YOUR COMPANY?

Lyon is a superb site for testing and developing this new tool, which is best-suited to an urban context. This region has all the urban characteristics and alternative forms of transportation (public transport, bicycles, carsharing, carpooling...) needed for our experiments. The Optimod project is the ideal catalyst to make great strides in travel challenges and, once it’s completed, we’ll be able to roll it out elsewhere in France and Europe.

What makes the Optimod project so effective is how it changes each individual’s relationship with in-city travel by embracing all modes of transportation: bicycle, shared electric vehicles, mass transit, etc.Optimod is a central control system for mobility forecasting unlike any other in the world and has three original components: an integrated approach to passenger and urban freight transport, service development based on ITS (Intelligent Transport Systems), and private-sector partnerships to develop an innovation-focused policy.

Optimod is: • traffic predictions up to one hour: responsive and practical traffic management information;• mobile applications: optimized travel time;• business services: reducing delivery-related costs.

DIGITAL SERVICES

Data recovery and processing are fundamental to developing a digital Smart City. Greater Lyon provides a public-data platform, Grand Lyon Smart Data, through which operators will ultimately share their own data.This platform is already able to handle real-time data flow – big data – in record time. The data can be used to create new services to making city living more pleasant, easier to visit, easier to work in.Greater Lyon makes residents’ lives easier by offering a range of services that provide one-step access to cultural and visitor information, and, in the future, an entire range of services (mobility, etc.) using contactless technologies.

?HOW DOES THE GÉOVÉLO PROJECT USE REGIONAL DATA?

The Géovélo application is a GPS system for cyclists that uses continuously updated map data supplied directly by the Grand Lyon Smart Data platform. It was developed in collaboration with Greater Lyon and Open Street Map. Géovélo calculates bike routes for cyclists, taking into account bikeways and user profile data, such as skill level, travel frequency, recreational biking, etc.

DO THESE DATA MAKE THE CITY SMARTER?

To build a metropolis meeting tomorrow’s economic and social challenges, data access is quite simply essential. Data should be viewed as an asset and translated into urban intelligence. Data analysis provides a basis for assessing behaviors and anticipating societal shifts

to offer new, more ergonomic services better tailored to citizens’ needs.

WHAT WAS GREATER LYON’S ROLE IN THE GÉOVÉLO PROJECT?

Greater Lyon is completely and wisely committed to the open-data revolution, because that’s an absolutely priority for any modern metropolis. It’s one of the cities having the most expertise in gathering and updating data. Above all, the region goes beyond making data available to the market: It has an actual strategy to ensure their use has economic value and serves the greater good. Greater Lyon has positioned itself as true partner and has entered into a long-term relationship with us, introducing us to other market players, providing seminars, and even handling public relations and boosting the project’s exposure.

Conserving energy resources, managing consumption

ENERGY SMART GRIDS

L I N K YP R O J E C T

What makes this such a smart project is how users are involved in the management of energy resources. The Linky meter is a new step towards smart grids and has been installed in 175,000 Lyon households to date. The concept is to field-test this communicating electricity meter to gather real-time information and tailor network’s management to new uses. Users enjoy simpler, more precise management of their consumption and quicker problem-response times.

IS THE SUBJECT OF ENERGY VITAL TO A SMART CITY?

It’s critical that we rethink how we use power networks: That’s essential to supporting the energy transition. Greater Lyon has been anticipating these issues for more than three years, including being a pilot zone for large-scale implementation of the Linky meter. The purpose is to show that it works, as well as what services it can offer citizens and businesses.

WHY RETHINK THE NETWORKS AND SWITCH TO SMART GRIDS?

The energy transition is based on three major innovations: the massive wave of renewable energy sources, widespread use of electric vehicles, and energy conservation. This means better grid management and streamlined integration of power sourced from renewable energies around the region (wind, solar, hydro, etc.). Smart grids with smart meters are an essential component

to this new structure, because they measure grid activity and can anticipate and adapt to needs.

WHAT ARE LINKY’S ADVANTAGES?

Linky means that ERDF and its customers have a clear picture of power consumption. Electricity bills correspond to actual meter readings and we can take readings and work remotely, without disturbing people. And it means we can more effectively incorporate green power sources into the network.

AND FOR THE REGION?

Greater Lyon is an internationally recognized testing ground. Some 40% of France’s projects are developed here, in partnership with leading manufacturers, generating tens of millions of euros in investments. Companies invest in Lyon because it has a favorable climate and because you can test and implement technologies here that lead to expansion opportunities abroad.

WHAT IS HIKOB’S SCOPE

OF ACTIVITY?

Hikob was born when three researchers came together, all wanting to take their particular specialty further on the information systems market. We created energy-autonomous sensors to radio-retrieve information. Greater Lyon gave us the wherewithal to test our sensors in real-life conditions, including using existing infrastructures, like the CRITER traffic-light control system.

TELL US ABOUT THE GRIZZLY PROJECT...

Greater Lyon wanted to upgrade its winter practicability tools, meaning everything having to do with roadway maintenance in snowy or icy conditions. We supplied our technology by installing temperature sensors and providing environmental data, making it possible to collect information to better manage the impact of bad weather (salting, driving conditions, etc.). Our eco-innovative project has also been supported by the Rhône-Alpes region through the innovation supporting program INNOV’R.

YOU’RE ALMOST THROUGH WITH THE TESTING PHASE: ARE YOU READY TO ROLL OUT YOUR SOLUTION ELSEWHERE?

Through the first winter, we were able to compare the collected data with the Météo France forecast data. The challenge this coming winter will be working on the communities actually using that data. After that, we’ll team up with Greater Lyon to do a full assessment of the project’s implementation, then be able to formalize an operational and marketable offer.
