SOM II, sub-project: Visualization of data

In a smart city, a lot of data can be collected — but if you can't find good ways to display the data, it becomes difficult to get an overview. Data from the smart bike project carried out in autumn 2018 was used in a sub-project to demonstrate how to visualise the data set, for example to support decision makers.

The sub-project on cyclists' road choices was led by Emeli Adell at Trivecteur and cyclists' mobiles were used to detect road choices through Lund and a bluetooth button allowed the cyclists to mark unsafe locations.

The data set created in the cycle project was used to make a visualization tool.

“The visualisation tool will be of great use in the cycling project, but also in many other projects,” says sub-project manager Johan Lindén at Mobile Heights, California. in a January 2019 interview. The tool allows the user to see the results in a map environment, but also to filter the data set by interesting parameters.

The idea was to make it possible to collect varying data in a common environment, which in this case was Sensativas Yggio platform and all results could be displayed through the visualization tool that was created.

T-maps participated to help display the data set geographically. T-maps combines knowledge in cartography and GIS with software development and databases. The company develops solutions to deliver data, information and products in innovative ways.

“In the project, T-Maps provides a platform for easier visualization of sensor data and other data in a map view,” said Peter Bårmann, Sensative in an interview in January 2019. For Trivector's cycling project, you can also create a map view where you can filter travel behaviours based on a number of parameters such as gender, age, mode of travel etc.

“The tool allows you to base decisions on data that can in principle be collected in real time,” said Johan Lindén.

At the beginning of 2019, the Technical Administration was allowed to try a trial version.

“The tool is very intuitive and easy to use,” said Erik Nilsgart. There are a lot of people in the municipality who work with this type of data.

“The visualisation makes the data easy to understand and easier to work with,” said Helena Runesson.

The project is a sub-project of the SOM project is part of the Strategic Innovation Programme for the Internet of Things, IoT Sweden, which is funded by Vinnova. Anders Trana at Future by Lund was the project manager for the entire project. The project started on 1 September 2017 and ran until December 2020.
