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. […]
“SimpleCharge” – An Electric Vehicle Charging Solution Using Streetlight Poles in Ķīpsala
Testing a new, innovative electric car charging solution using street lighting poles. The Latvian start-up company “SimpleCharge” has created the first electric charging station in street lanterns in the Baltic States, introducing technologies that effectively use existing infrastructure. This approach offers a simpler and cheaper way to develop an electric car charging network, especially in […]
I-NERGY: Artificial Intelligence for Next Generation Energy
Project I-NERGY fosters the use of artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions in the energy sector to improve energy efficiency and climate investment planning. The project has developed smart data analysis tools to help better manage energy consumption, predict return on investment and reduce risks. The Significance of the Project for Riga Safe, accessible and sustainable energy […]
Environmental Violation Prevention System
The project introduced advanced technologies — unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) — to help the Riga Municipal Police respond to environmental violations more quickly and efficiently. The Significance of the Project for Riga Riga regularly faces various types of environmental violations, including pollution, illegal fishing, grass burning, and noise disturbances during nighttime hours. Police resources are […]
Multimodal Cities (cities.multimodal) – The First Mobility Point Established in Riga
Multimodal Cities (cities.multimodal) – The First Mobility Point Established in Riga The project “cities. multimodal” fosters the development of solutions for sustainable and smart mobility in Riga and the Baltic Sea region. A first mobility point in the vicinity of VEF, which connected different sustainable modes of transport, facilitated micro-mobility opportunities and provided innovative data-based […]
