EXPO 2020 DUBAI
At the core of this platform is MindSphere , the open , cloud-based IoT operating system from Siemens . Data from sensors , gateways , systems and building management applications is collected in MindSphere , where it can be analysed and visualised by applications such as Navigator , the cloud-based energy and asset management platform from Siemens . The Siemens system helps Expo 2020 Dubai achieve its goal of an optimal balance of energy efficiency with visitor safety , security and comfort .
To analyse the data in MindSphere , Siemens has worked closely with the organisers to develop a smart city app that will be used for the first time at the mega-event . The app can supply detailed environmental data such as air quality and weather conditions , as well as monitor irrigation systems across the site . But that ’ s just the beginning , as once Expo 2020 closes its doors , the app can be expanded to accommodate a range of other possible use cases and has the potential to become an all-purpose tool for the future smart city .
