NISG submits Inception Report for New Town Smart City

I just got the inception report submitted for the Smart City Project of New Town. It is prepared by NISG- National Institute for Smart Governance. It has proposed to adopt a citizen-centric approach. It proposes to adopt innovative design and futuristic technology. It will make an Integrated Smart City Development Plan for New Town after interacting with residents, stakeholders, product demonstration and research. It has proposed the following modules:

SCADA based Water Management: Including predictive maintenance, leak management etc
Energy: including smart lighting and smart metering
Sewerage & Waste Management: including networked solid waste disposal and recycling
GPS based Transport: including route optimisation and traffic prediction
Security and Safety including intelligent video analytics

I will meet them next week to give our feedback. Here is a picture of the cover of the Inception Report:
