Intelligent Management in Various Urban Environment - iRoad, the Smart Road Management Center of New Taipei City Government

Solution Description

Smart Transportation

New Taipei City is the country’s largest first-level administrative district and holds around 100 roads and pipelines to effectively maintain various daily needs. With this comes an average of 10,000 construction cases per year that are audited to maintain the normal supply of various underground pipeline resources. This eventually led to negative impact such as traffic, decreased road quality and the waste of resources. To provide citizens with a higher quality road that can simultaneously co-exist with the construction process within limited human resources and budget, the “Smart Road Management Center” was created. The project focused on 5 goals: streamline administration process, mobile governance, smart management, develop value-added applications, and transparent governance. Through virtualization, cloudification, and intelligence, it can grasp road construction in real time, observe maintenance status, and support road rescue decision-making, all which can improve the overall road maintenance effectiveness.
