breathing data that can help improve our

00:08
Internet of Things sensors and mobile
00:10
devices
00:11
we can truly make a city more
00:13
sustainable and responsive revealing
00:15
information for things like how we
00:17
commute energy efficiency and even
00:20

lines can be created vehicles can be
00:25
connected and traffic flow can be
00:27
improved in a smart city GPS becomes
00:31
integrated with our city grid changing
00:33
all traffic lights to green for EMS
00:35
vehicles street lights illuminate our
00:37
sidewalks entirely based on optimal
00:40
travel times and implementing citywide

01:06
opportunities that’s a smart city we’re
01:09
not there yet but we can be we have to
01:12
do it together the district is working
01:14
hard to provide residents access to
01:17
online resources through responsive
01:19
public Wi-Fi we’re working with major
01:21
universities to tap into advanced
01:24
research services and share knowledge
01:26
and to advance health care through
01:28
connected devices
01:29
we’re busy creating intelligent and
01:31
efficient buildings reducing cost and
01:33

01:36
optimize city resources and assets and
01:38
improve our city services we’re working
01:41
on new utilities that monitor water

while detecting viruses and wastewater
01:50
to support Public Health we’re even
01:52
testing smart sewage technology that can
01:54
detect infectious diseases and predict
01:57
and prevent future outbreaks and that’s
01:59
just the start
02:00
