Line 1: Line 1:
Writing "Smart City" applications is hard. Often, the software and tooling environment is proprietary and the resulting applications fail to inter-operate with applications developed elsewhere. It can also be expensive due to a lack of in-house knowledge, skills and tools for such software. Having an open source Software Development Kit (SDK) that provides libraries, tools and common APIs could be valuable in addressing this problem. The goal would be to make it easier, cheaper and faster to develop, deploy and sustain Smart City applications worldwide.

This is a workshop to discuss the creation of an open source development community and project to build an environment of SDKs and tools towards such a goal.
 
This aligns with the Federal initiative for a "City Web", which encourages the adoption of common and proven approaches to the [https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2015/09/14/fact-sheet-administration-announces-new-smart-cities-initiative-help Smart City mission].  It is hoped that cities and stakeholders coordinate existing activities to share data models, software tools ''etc''. The Federal [https://www.nitrd.gov/ NITRD] program and CITII would be greatly accelerated in that goal by a thriving open source community of developers and users sharing best practices and resources.
 
Our workshop-style open meeting will discuss next steps with those interested in this effort. If you are interested in attending the workshop (will which occur on the morning of February 2, location/time TBD) please indicate interest on the Google Form. If you are interested enough in the topic to help organize please send email to daniel.frye@urban.systems.
 
 
So far, we have a speaker from FIWARE lined up and we are looking for one from Iotivity as well.  Also of interest, would be hearing from any Smart City application developers that might like to present or host a poster on issues they have in building modern Smart City applications.
 
 
Current proposed speakers/discussion leaders:
 
Jose Gonzales - FIWARE
 
TBD - Iotivity
 
Nivedita Singhvi - Open City SDK
 
 
Feel free to add early ideas and thoughts about this idea here as well.
