Here is to integrate its real-time traffic and speed data with the mobility company’s CitiAnalytics tool, which helps cities better understand traffic jams, air quality and people movement.

Dieter Lange, director sales, Europe, Middle East, Africa and Russia, says City Lojik’s analytics can help cities “improve urban planning, relieve congestion and curb pollution for better quality of life”.

Here says real-time traffic data analyses data from a mix of sources to provide an accurate depiction of real-world traffic conditions while speed data delivers information from a database of GPS data points.

CitiAnalytics is available to all cities and local authorities in the UK, with plans to launch the technology internationally as well.

  • Siemens Mobility project uses rerouting to improve air quality in Munich
    February 25, 2019
    Up to 40% of drivers are willing to help reduce air pollution when provided with alternative routes on ThinxNet’s Ryd platform, says Siemens Mobility. The partners worked with air quality specialist Hawa Dawa in a four-week project in Munich to prove that intelligent traffic control can help cities become more sustainable. Siemens says initial results for more than 1,600 drivers in the German city showed savings of 83 kg of carbon dioxide and 114 g of nitrogen oxide as well as a reduction of 633km driven
