Revision as of 23:37, February 1, 2017
This workshop builds on the great work done by the Global City Teams Challenge (GCTC), a collaborative network of project teams, or “Action Clusters,” working on groundbreaking applications of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies within the smart city/community environment. On October 25-26 the GCTC SuperCluster meeting in Washington DC launched cross municipality teams to focus on specific smart city topics. This workshop continues the work started in that session to build a Transportation Master Plan - Last Mile.
The primary municipalities involved in the first GCTC Supercluster meeting included Baltimore, Chattanooga, Columbus, DC, Florence, Greeneville, Milan, and Portland. We are encouraging the participation of other municipalities who recognise the need for a first/last mile solution. We further encourage participants to review the Transportation Master Plan - Last Mile and offer improvements, extensions and simplifications.
For those looking for more context we encourage review of the whitehouse announcements on smart city technology including the Fact Sheet the Obama White House produced on “Smart Cities” to Help Communities Tackle Local Challenges and Improve City Services and the report by the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology (PCAST), Technology and the Future of Cities, which lays out why now is a good time to promote technologies for cities.
