Improvement of urban mobility supported with IoT technologies
Urban mobility is one of the most significant factors in the successful development and sustainable future of large cities. The increasing demand for fast, safe, and eco-friendly transportation services is a trend in modern society. These requirements pose the challenge of finding corresponding solutions for efficient mobility of people in urban areas. However, many problems are caused by the increased traffic in cities, leading to high congestion, negative impacts on the environment, rising security challenges, etc. Therefore, the research community and other stakeholders have increased their focus on finding solutions for these issues. The Internet of Things (IoT) has enabled the development of efficient and cost-effective solutions to enhance urban mobility. Enabling IoT technologies has become a significant driver for smart mobility concept development. The continuous development of IoT has led to various applications focused on urban mobility improvement. This paper presents some IoT possibilities and potentials for developing solutions for smart urban mobility.
