关于客户
The San Jose Police Department (SJPD) is a law enforcement agency based in San Jose, California, located in the heart of Silicon Valley. The department is responsible for maintaining public safety and enforcing laws within the city. With a workforce of over 1,000 officers, the SJPD handles a wide range of criminal, moving, and municipal violations. The department is committed to leveraging technology to optimize its processes and improve efficiency. In recent years, the SJPD has been exploring various technological solutions to streamline its operations, reduce errors, and save valuable labor and funds. The department's leadership, including Police Chief Robert L. Davis, is focused on finding innovative ways to enhance the agency's capabilities and provide better service to the community.
挑战
Prior to using Intermec by Honeywell CN3 mobile computers, all of the processes associated with criminal, moving and municipal violations were manual. When an officer stopped a violator, he or she recorded the driver’s details, information regarding the incident and the ensuing court dates with pen and paper. Prone to human error, this process caused additional labor when information was recorded inaccurately, as well as caused potential trial delays. Many times officers neglected to fill in certain boxes or entered incorrect data. This created extra labor for both the quality assurance process and for the officers who would be required later to complete necessary paperwork to fix the error or risk the citation being thrown out in court. Once the ticket was issued, it was then sent to the records division for quality control. If the ticket did not pass the quality assurance process, the check person issued an amendment form, attached it to the original ticket and returned it to the officer to correct. If the information on the ticket was validated, one copy was sent to the courts and entered into their database, and another copy was sent to the police department and entered into a separate database. By segmenting the process for entering violations into the system databases, there was more opportunity for error. Two different data entry departments meant two separate opportunities for mistakes. Using this system, the SJPD was averaging a 10 percent annual error rate. Two systems for data entry also meant twice the labor— something the SPJD needed to optimize during budget cuts.
解决方案
Based in the heart of Silicon Valley, San Jose Police Chief Robert L. Davis knew there had to be a way to leverage technology to optimize the agency’s processes. Three years ago, the department began researching different solutions that might fit the department’s needs. “We needed a device that was rugged enough for the officers to use out in the field,” said Davis. “We also needed a device with an extended battery life, write-on screen capabilities and a card-swiper that could read drivers’ licenses. The software solution needed to enable us to swipe the violator’s driver’s license and at a later time download the information to the police department’s data base, and after, to the court’s database.” After viewing several presentations, SJPD opted for a bundled solution developed by 3i Infotech and Intermec by Honeywell. The result is a paperless eCitation system that enables San Jose police officers to connect to the city court’s database via the handheld computers after docking the device at the end of a shift. With the CN3’s Bluetooth wireless technology, officers are also able to connect wirelessly to mobile printers and print tickets in real time. Now, when citizens are pulled over for a traffic violation, the arresting officer simply swipes the violator’s driver’s license to record the driver’s personal information. The officer then identifies additional details regarding the citation using the CN3’s touch screen. Drivers sign the ticket on the screen or on a printed hard copy. In the first two weeks, 1,000 citations were issued with less than a two percent error rate. SJPD hopes to lower this rate to zero percent. “The San Jose Police Department can now spend more time on education and enforcement as opposed to citation entry and correction,” said Davis.

Case Study
Turning A Stadium Into A Smart Building
Honeywell created what it called the “intelligent system” for the National Stadium in Beijing, China, turning the venue for the opening and closing events at the 2008 Summer Olympics into a “smart building.” Designed by highly controversial artist Ai Weiwei, the “Bird’s Nest” remains one of the most impressive feats of stadium architecture in the world. The 250,000 square meter structure housed more than 100,000 athletes and spectators at a time. To accommodate such capacity, China turned to Honeywell’s EBI Integrated Building Management System to create an integrated “intelligent system” for improved building security, safety and energy efficiency.
Case Study
Smart Street Light Network (Copenhagen)
Key stakeholders are taking a comprehensive approach to rethinking smart city innovation. City leaders have collaborated through partnerships involving government, research institutions and solution providers. The Copenhagen Solutions Lab is one of the leading organizations at the forefront of this movement. By bringing together manufacturers with municipal buyers, the Copenhagen Solutions Lab has catalyzed the development and deployment of next-generation smart city innovations. Copenhagen is leveraging this unique approach to accelerate the implementation of smart city solutions. One of the primary focus areas is LED street lighting.
Case Study
Buoy Status Monitoring with LoRa
The Netherlands are well-known for their inland waterways, canals, sluices and of course port activities. The Dutch Ministry of Infrastructure indicates that there are thousands of buoys and fixed items in and near water environments that would profit from IoT monitoring. One of the problems with buoys for example, is that they get hit by ships and the anchor cable breaks. Without connectivity, it takes quite some time to find out that something has happened with that buoy. Not to mention the costs of renting a boat to go to the buoy to fix it. Another important issue, is that there is no real-time monitoring of the buoys at this moment. Only by physically visiting the object on the water, one gains insight in its status.
Case Study
China Mobile Smart Parking
Smart Parking, powered by NB-IoT technology, is making it easier for drivers to find free parking spots. Cities can better manage their parking assets and maximize the revenue available to them as a result. Drivers searching for parking create congestion and pollution by circling and hunting for available parking. Smart Parking services are able to significantly ease these problems by guiding a driver directly to a parking space.

Barcelona Case Study
Barcelona’s heavy traffic and its associated high levels of pollution were the primary factors that motivated some companies and universities to work on strategies for improving traffic in the city centre. Bitcarrier is one of the technologies involved in the In4Mo Project, whose main objective is to develop the applications that form the core of smart mobility, one of the fundamental pillars of the smart city concept.
