Scriptr.io powers “Best in Transportation” winning app at Hack Red Hook

Posted by | Jun 30, 2016 | |

About smart cities Smart cities – or intelligent cities – hold the promise for addressing the challenges that city planners will have to face in the coming years: in 2025, around 58% of the world’s population will be living in urban areas and city planners need to be able to provide citizens with the services they expect (transportation and traffic, contained energy consumption, security, etc.) in a sustainable manner. The vision behind smart cities is thus to find means to reach the latter objective and is also about improving the quality of life by leveraging technology – and notably...
