Smart City IoT Dashboard
Project Title:
Smart City IoT Dashboard
Objective:
To create a centralized IoT-based dashboard that monitors and manages key smart city services like traffic, air quality, waste management, and public utilities in real time.
Project Summary:
This project focuses on building a smart city management system that collects data from various IoT sensors deployed across the city and displays it on an interactive web dashboard. The system provides real-time insights into urban infrastructure such as traffic flow, pollution levels, waste bins, and street lighting. City officials and citizens can use the dashboard to monitor conditions, optimize resource usage, and respond quickly to issues.
Key Components:
Hardware: Sensors (air quality, traffic, light, waste level), microcontroller (ESP32/Arduino), GSM/Wi-Fi modules
Software: Cloud storage (Firebase, AWS), Web dashboard (HTML/CSS/JavaScript), Data visualization tools
Technologies: IoT, Cloud Computing, Data Analytics, Web Development, Real-time Monitoring
Features:
Real-time monitoring of air quality, traffic, and waste levels
Visual dashboards with maps and live data feeds
Alerts and notifications for abnormal readings
Historical data analysis and reports
Admin/user access levels for different stakeholders
Applications:
Municipal smart city control centers
Urban planning and development
Public safety and environmental monitoring
Citizen awareness and engagement platforms
Outcome:
The project showcases how IoT can transform urban management by providing data-driven insights and automation. It promotes sustainability, efficiency, and a smarter way of living—making it a great real-world application of IoT for students.
