White paper: Smart Cities with Frost and Sullivan | TomTom Newsroom

Smart Cities make a bold promise. With new infrastructure, cybersecurity, big data collection and analysis, and heaps of new mobility technology, they claim to tame the chaos of modern city life. With smarter cities, congestion will be a thing of the past, efficiency will be the norm, space will be shared fairly and multi-modal transport will be commonplace. But how do we do it? What needs to come together to make Smart Cities not just a promise, but a reality?

Industry researchers and consultants, Frost and Sullivan, with additional insight and data from TomTom, provide answers to those questions in this recent white paper. You can download the recently published report, in full, here:

It’s a tall order, but as Frost and Sullivan explain, with highly accurate, high-resolution traffic and location data from the likes of TomTom, we can fully understand the cities of today, to build the cities of tomorrow that we dream of.
