What’s so smart about Smart Cities?
A Smart City provides effective integration of physical, digital and human systems to deliver a sustainable, prosperous and inclusive future for its citizens.
DelBianco CitySmart will be a suite of tools to benefit city operations, such as management of urban infrastructure (utilities, traffic, services, etc.). Any city will be able to continually tailor and advance functionalities serving their urban management needs, with an integrated system meant to increase awareness, efficiency, sustainability and quality of urban life.

Underlying Technologies
From the server backend to the web application frontend, everything should be open standards and open source. �And open data sources are a first consideration, i.e., OpenStreetMap.

Server Setup
Mapping server
GeoServer is an open source server for sharing geospatial data.
Designed for interoperability, GeoServer publishes data from any standards-based spatial data source.

Tile cache
GeoWebCache is a Java web application used to cache map tiles coming from a variety of sources such as OGC Web Map Service (WMS).
It implements various service interfaces (such as WMS-C, WMTS, TMS, Google Maps KML, Virtual Earth) in order to accelerate and optimize map image delivery.

Database
PostgreSQL is a powerful, open source object-relational database system. It has more than 15 years of active development and a proven architecture that has earned it a strong reputation for reliability, data integrity, and correctness.
PostGIS is a spatial database extender for PostgreSQL object-relational database. It adds support for geographic objects allowing location queries to be run in SQL.

Server stack
OpenGeo Suite is a complete web-based geospatial software stack. The applications contained are:
Every component is open source by itself and can be installed and configured separately of OpenGeo.

Data sources
The project aims to be compatible with open standards-compliant geospatial data sources, be it public or private. It is crucial, however, to have compatibility for openly available urban map data.
OpenStreetMap (OSM) is a collaborative project to create a free editable map of the world. The creation and growth of OSM has been motivated by restrictions on use or availability of map information across much of the world, and the advent of inexpensive portable satellite navigation devices. OSM is considered a prominent example of volunteered geographic information.
CitySmart aims to have full integration with OSM data.

Builds On Prior Work
Trilogis wwwOSM
wwwOSM demonstrated integration of OpenStreetMap(OSM) with�ESA NASA Web World Wind.
Trilogis demonstrated visualization of 3D OSM data in Web World Wind without use of any plugin embedded in the browser (unlike OSM’s own solution, OSM-3D). The wwwOSM source is readily available, although the backend interface needs to be entirely rebuilt from scratch.

Springfield City WMS service
The city of Springfield, Oregon, USA, is working towards a unified data warehouse that contains all the city’s geospatial data, also fully visualized by Web World Wind.
We are working in collaboration with the City of Springfield. They are sharing their data and progress with the Del Bianco CitySmart team.
