Cities around the world face increasing pressure from population growth and technological disruption. And how these cities manage growth will determine our world’s ability to flourish. Hitachi collaborates with its partners to build smart and sustainable cities for people, businesses, organizations, and governments. Leveraging our capabilities across advanced analytics, LiDAR technology, and IoT, we are committed to augment urban development by creating safe spaces and smart cities that are more connected and provide a better pedestal of opportunities. Using solutions like Hitachi Video Analytics and Hitachi Visualization Suite, we render real-time situational awareness to various city and state governments while protecting the privacy of every citizen. We strive to improve people’s quality of life by providing operational intelligence to the city’s transportation agencies which helps them build smart transportation systems that are optimized for the daily commute of residents.
