Selected Case Studies

Traffic Management

Traffic Management

Initial Situation and Problem Statement:

The densely populated urban structure and the increasing road traffic present the city administration with the challenge of reducing harmful emissions and sustainably improving air quality without having to resort to drastic and undifferentiated measures, such as general driving bans.  This requires a holistic basis of environmental data that has not yet existed.

Solution:

Hawa Dawa’s holistic approach integrates air quality data taking into account other influencing factors and offers data-based analyses, as well as modelling and dynamic forecasts. For this purpose, an intelligent infrastructure for the collection of environmental and traffic data was set up and a data platform was provided for evaluation. On this basis, Hawa Dawa supports the city in the selection of “soft” measures and the measurement of success.

Benefit:

  • The sustainable basis of environmental data provides the necessary information for optimisation measures for urban transport.
  • The intuitive web interface for displaying results enables decision-makers to gain deeper insights in a simple way.
  • In addition, the entire range of possible mobility concepts as well as the effects on neighbouring areas are taken into account.

Citizen Information

Citizen Information

Initial Situation and Problem Statement:

The mid-sized city does not have any air quality data from its own measurement networks. The city considers the collection of its own air quality data to be part of data-based public welfare and urban planning. In addition, great importance is attached to providing information to the citizens. This is to be taken into account both through group-appropriate prepared data and through citizen events.

Solution:

A measurement network based on Sentience IoT measurement devices was implemented. The data is displayed on an intuitively understandable citizen dashboard and on an expert dashboard for the experts in the administration. In addition, the experts receive regular reports that correlate the air pollutants with weather data and thus allow deeper insights. The measurement data will also be made available via API for the city’s Open Data application. Several citizen events rounded off the solution.

Benefit:

  • The importance of easy-to-understand visualisations for the citizens has been brought into our consciousness by this project.
  • Actual data have replaced broad assumptions.
  • The development of own measurement data series can be used to improve future data models.

Health Management

Health Management

Initial Situation and Problem Statement:

Ambient, outdoor, pollution is a significant contributor to urban asthma and diabetes events and hospitalisations whilst at the same time actually being a manageable problem with the use of better monitoring technology, granular data analysis and intuitive digital tools. The regional authorities wanted to have tools for mitigating the impact of air pollution for the administration and also for at-risk citizens.

Solution:

Leveraging the huge potential of geospatial and environmental data, historic health and pollution metrics were used as the basis for the development of customer-focused digital tools to help reduce exposure and manage risk. To assist urban health planners, clinicians and authorities a dashboard was developed by combining all relevant parameters – be it health or education, mobility or traffic – into a single digital interface that allows for scenario planning and predictive analysis with the aim of reducing the health risks of pollution.

Benefit:

  • Facilitated understanding of a complex situation
  • User-oriented output/interfaces for administration and citizens
  • Comprehensive data aggregation considers all relevant interrelations of factors.

Urban Planning

Smart City

Urban Planning

Initial Situation and Problem Statement:

The smaller-sized city has an ambitious plan for becoming a „Smart City“, which puts the wellbeing of its citizens and improvements of the quality of life at the centre of all its efforts. Getting a comprehensive insight into the air quality of the city’s entire built-up area is a major objective.

Solution:

Hawa Dawa established a fully-managed air quality network for the city. Experts from Hawa Dawa worked with the city administration to determine the most appropriate sensor locations, which deliver unbiased and comprehensive data on the air quality within the city. Detailed analytics on the effects of weather conditions, climate, traffic and land use are made available via API for direct and seamless integration into the city’s planning tools.

Benefit:

  • A comprehensive basis for fact-based decisions of the city administration
  • A data pool that is accessible by all city departments
  • A system for better understanding of the implementation of state-of-the-art smart city technologies – from prioritisation to evaluation

Environmental Nudging

Environmental Nudging

Initial Situation and Problem Statement:

Traffic is a major contributor to air pollution. The objective was to positively influence traffic behaviour, for example, that of daily commuters, to achieve non-critical emission levels throughout the city and to incentivise driving behaviour to have positive effects on pollution.

Solution:

Together with two partners from the traffic / mobility space Hawa Dawa developed data-based route recommendations for encouraging individual drivers to actively (and repeatedly) select their upcoming journeys according to forecast pollutant levels along their most commonly travelled routes. Using anonymized historical trip data, the most commonly travelled routes were estimated and, using Hawa Dawa‘s pollutant forecasts, a more eco-friendly (and in many cases, shorter) route was developed and pushed to drivers. Hawa Dawa’s 24-hour forecasts of Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) levels were pivotal to the algorithm being able to form route recommendations for the sample group of drivers.

Benefit:

  • Empowering individuals to actively change their behaviour for reducing their environmental footprint.
  • Measurable results for communicating and promoting the impact of environmentally friendly behaviour
  • Creating an additional pillar for eco-sensitive mobility
