Customer examples
Dataport
The Baltic Sea resort of Eckernförde optimized public parking and tourist traffic flows as part of a pilot project using Internet-of-Things technology. Effective parking management reduced the burden of environmentally harmful CO2 and now prevents time-consuming traffic jams.
Systems for environmental protection
A cloud interface is used to retrieve data from environmental sensors based on both time and events. An intuitive interface allows end users to create and manage devices and assets as easily as possible.
Rosenheim municipal utility
The municipal utilities manage various regional electricity market participants as part of Redispatch 2.0. With the help of the IoT solution ThingsBoard, it was possible to implement a
web-based platform that integrates and coordinates all operator data.
