A global snapshot of great uses of IoT in urban contexts
Nominet looked at nearly 150 projects which self-identify as smart city projects. We compiled our list based on the ‘findable’ in terms of digital, urban projects, excluding those in the home.
This is not an exhaustive list and it focuses on the projects, not the cities themselves. If you would like to add your project, please send details to: [email protected].
