LIFE LATESTadapt: development and demonstration of a portfolio of nature-based and smart solutions for improving the climate resilience of cities in Latvia and Estonia
In Riga, Terbatas Street, innovative nature-based solutions have been introduced that improve the city’s ability to adapt to climate change. As part of the project, testing of green roofs, green walls, raingardens and other elements is ensured, which helps to reduce urban overheating and improve quality of life for residents. The Significance of the Project […]
GEO RIGA: A Geospatial Data Publishing Platform
GEO RĪGA is a geographic information system established by the Riga Municipality that brings together and publishes geospatial data held by the local government. It is a platform that provides access to information about the administrative territory of Riga for residents, businesses, researchers, neighbourhood activists, and other interest groups, facilitating data usage and promoting transparency […]
Urban ReLeaF: Resident-Powered Data Ecosystems for Inclusive and Green Urban Transitions
Urban ReLeaf engages residents in urban greening and climate change adaptation by promoting their participation in urban planning and improving environmental monitoring. The digital tools developed within the project help better understand and manage green infrastructure, improving city sustainability and resident well-being. The Significance of the Project for Riga Riga needs to strengthen its green […]
Smart Lighting in Ķīpsala
A smart lighting system has been implemented in Ķīpsala to reduce electricity consumption and improve the quality of the urban environment. This solution combines low-energy LED luminaires, motion sensors, and smart controllers to adjust light intensity based on pedestrian and vehicle movement. The Significance of the Project for Riga Riga is actively introducing energy-efficient and […]
Novality – A Smart Bicycle Parking Solution
In Riga, a solar-powered smart bicycle parking facility has been tested in collaboration with Spanish start-up Novality. It offers a safe place to store bicycles and scooters, private cabinets for helmets and personal belongings, and power charging options. The Significance of the Project for Riga Riga Centre faces intense traffic, air and noise pollution, as […]
Implementation of an IoT Wheelchair Lift Monitoring System in Riga City Municipality
The project introduced an Internet of Things (IoT)-based monitoring system for wheelchair lifts across Riga City Municipality. The system enables remote monitoring and data analysis of lift operations, allowing timely maintenance, increased user safety, and optimized maintenance costs. The Significance of the Project for Riga Before the project’s implementation, lift maintenance was carried out twice […]
Development of a Vehicle Noise Monitoring System
The project established a system for measuring vehicle-generated noise levels in the urban environment using noise sensors and video surveillance cameras. The solution enables the collection and analysis of data on noise sources and intensity, providing a basis for developing proposals to reduce noise pollution. The Significance of the Project for Riga Residents of central […]
Detection of Cargo Vehicle Tire Overload and Overheating Using Video Analytics
The project developed a mobile video analytics solution for detecting tire overload and overheating in cargo vehicles, replacing the less efficient “weigh-in-motion” technology. The Significance of the Project for Riga Cargo vehicles exceeding permissible axle loads cause significant damage to the city’s road surfaces, bridges, and overpasses, while also contributing to increased noise and air […]
Ensuring Public Transport Priority at Signalized Intersections Using License Plate Recognition and Vehicle Type Classification
The project introduced a new public transport recognition system at the intersection of Ulmaņa Gatve and Vaiņodes Street in Riga. The system automatically identifies and distinguishes between buses and trolleybuses, allowing traffic lights to prioritize each transport mode separately. This innovation ensures smoother and more efficient traffic flow across the intersection. The Significance of the […]
GPS-Based Monitoring and Optimization of Public Transport Lanes and Green Wave Efficiency
The project developed a digital solution for monitoring the operation of public transport lanes and “green wave” corridors using GPS data from intercity, international, and Riga city public transport routes. The system enables tracking of actual travel speeds, identifying delays, and responding promptly to traffic disruptions, thereby improving the overall efficiency of public transport operations.
