Sistemas de decisión automatizada en el sector público colombiano
This AI tool helps users identify and map tertiary roads (smaller rural roads) across a country using satellite images. It processes satellite data to automatically detect and georeference these roads, providing an accurate and up-to-date inventory. Users can then visualize road networks, assess accessibility, and make informed decisions for infrastructure planning and development. By automating this process, the AI reduces the time and cost associated with manual road mapping, supporting more efficient resource allocation for future projects. It ultimately helps improve transportation systems, particularly in rural and underserved areas.

Joint Research Centre Data Catalogue: Public Sector Tech Watch latest dataset of selected cases
The "Pametna Mlaka" project led to the development of a digital twin for the Mlaka neighborhood in Kranj, Slovenia. This digital twin is powered by data gathered from technologies like smart meters (for electricity, gas, water, and traffic) and environmental sensors. By leveraging this data, the project facilitates real-time monitoring of resource usage, allowing both citizens and authorities to access and analyze it. Ultimately, the goal is to enhance resource management practices and increase sustainability, and scale up the solution beyond Mlaka, which served as the arena for this pilot project.
