NewsSmart Cities to get ‘brain centres’

Upcoming Smart Cities shall now go to a new level of monitoring and delivery of civic services through Digitally Integrated Central Command and Control Centres, Union Housing and Urban Affairs Secretary Durga Shanker Mishra said. These centres would serve as the ‘brain centres’ of the Smart Cities for ensuring coordination in the functioning of various agencies of urban local bodies, thereby resulting in improved services delivery to the citizens. He said these centres, based on a host sensor connected to a central server, would function as the eyes and ears of the cities by monitoring garbage collection and its transportation. Samir Sharma, National Mission Director, Smart City Mission, said such centres were under implementation in Pune, Nagpur, Surat, Ahmedabad, Vadodara, Jaipur, Raipur, Naya Raipur, Bhubaneshwar, Visakhapatnam and Kakinada.
