PROJECT DEFINITION

IMPLEMENTATION
B. Gateway
In order to integrate these different infrastructures (sensor
networks) available and to minimize the number of platforms
deployed in the city, the BCI project proposes to develop a
gateway that supports the connectivity of the multiple sensor
networks and multiple transport networks.
A. Sensor Capabilities
The BCI proposed model has used as a sensor base for the
deployment already available in the city, in particular the one
in the area of the 22@1, which was built in the context of 22@
Urban Lab project [2] and promoted by the Barcelona
Municipality. The objective of this deployment was validating
the solution and analyzing the applicability of the data obtained
independently of manufacturer and technology.

problems in the long term. To cope with the difficulty the BCI
project has incorporated an intelligent module that is able to
correlate data in time and space to identify potential problems.
The indications generated should be validated by human
operators to verify the indication and to feed the learning
capability of the intelligent module.
C. Transport Network
The Barcelona Municipality has a corporate network using
state of the art technologies and a wide coverage: 380 km of
optical fiber and more than 2000 Access Points define the
corporate network. At the lowest level of the access network
there is a capillarity that offers Ethernet, Wi-Fi, WIMAX, and
cellular access. Depending on the location one of the listed
access options can be the most suitable but others should be
kept as backup.
IV.
APPLICATION
E. Intelligence
The large volume of information that can be collected it is
not only difficult to handle, it is difficult to analyze and to
derive indications about alarms or trends that can result in
