Smart Urban Lighting Technology Implementation in Riga
Riga is gradually upgrading its street lighting system by replacing outdated sodium lamps with energy-efficient LED lights equipped with smart controllers. These solutions allow the brightness to be adjusted based on actual needs, helping to reduce electricity consumption and environmental impact. The Significance of the Project for Riga Many streetlights in Riga are outdated and […]
Expansion of the Municipal Air Quality Monitoring Network and Low-Emission Zones Efficiency Assessment
An expanded air quality monitoring network operates in Riga, providing a broader and more detailed dataset on urban air pollution levels. Before the project, air quality monitoring was limited to only a few stations, which did not offer a complete picture of pollution distribution and variations across different areas. By expanding the system with additional sensors, […]
Development of a Unified Mobility Data Ecosystem
Currently, mobility data in Riga is stored across various systems and municipal departments that are not interconnected. This fragmentation limits the ability to efficiently analyze traffic flow, public transport operations, and sustainable mobility development. To address this issue, a unified mobility data ecosystem is being developed, providing centralized, structured, and accessible data to enhance transport […]
