MyCity Connect

• Accessible anywhere in the world
• Built for end-users
• Micro-services based
• Single-sign-on
• Modular & flexible for small, medium and large cities

Operator and platform benefits: 

• Operator-friendly: it’s easy to use from a single sign-on system that gives you access to important data and reports via a user-friendly and intuitive dashboard. 
• Easy accessibility: the microservice-based technology is built on a brand-new platform and operated by SWARCO 24/7 in a secure cloud system. 
• Proactive management: real-time and historical data reports enable you to implement strategic decisions with scheduled or manual control functions, workflows, and roadwork management, and more. 
• Flexible integration: SWARCO MyCity shares & processes data from different systems in an urban environment, and we can act as the aggregator of mobility-relevant data sources and convert these to value adds, but also as a vendor who acts as a contractual aggregator. 
• Modular and scalable: SWARCO MyCity is scalable and enables you to add new solutions when you need them or accommodate project-specific requirements.

City and road user benefits:

• Efficient Vehicle movement: reduce travel times for road users by using real-time and historical data to plan and evaluate traffic flows and keep your city’s traffic moving efficiently. 
• Improved traffic safety: improved monitoring, workflows, and data processing mean you can proactively prevent many incidents before they happen (such as a dangerous build-up of traffic resulting from a faulty signal), reducing the likelihood of accidents, or when there is an accident, priority can be given to emergency vehicles. 
• Better air quality: smoother traffic flows and less congestion mean reduced levels of vehicle emissions. MyCity helps you create a green wave and prioritize specific types of vehicles, such as buses, emergency vehicles, and cyclists, making it more realistic to reach your city’s environmental goals. 
• Lower infrastructure costs: this modern planning tool will allow you to make better use of your city’s existing infrastructure, rather than the costly alternative of building more roads. 
• A more appealing place to live: the quality of life in a city goes a long way to determining whether or not it attracts new businesses and more people to live and work there. A well-managed city road network that is easy to navigate and relatively free of congestion goes a long way toward improving the quality of life.

We offer 12 solutions with SWARCO MyCity Connect:

• MyCity Monitoring LITE 

  a simple monitoring solution used for ITC controllers that replaces the existing product SWARCO Cloud. It now allows customers to continue enjoying SWARCO’s Smart Intersection/Smart Corridor and also gives them access to MyCity’s fully integrated ecosystem.

• MyCity Monitoring

  An upgrade from MyCity Monitoring Lite, makes it easier than ever to monitor real-time status, alerts and historical data for all devices, including traffic signals, parking equipment, detectors, cameras and more. 

• MyCity Air-Quality Monitoring 

  MyCity Air-Quality Monitoring helps to solve one of the biggest problems of our cities. Sensing, collecting, and visualizing real-time and historic air-quality metrics gives a clear picture of urban air quality. Armed with this baseline data, it makes it easier to understand what future investments will be needed to improve air quality.

• MyCity TMS (Traffic Management System) 

  Takes the stress out of managing traffic flows through small to large cities. Its user-friendly and intuitive interface makes it quicker and easier for operators to proactively manage traffic through city roads. This helps ensure more efficient traffic flow, thereby reducing the risk of congestion, lowering air pollution, shortening travel times, and encouraging more people to choose alternative forms of mobility. 

• MyCity TMS Adaptive 

  A traffic management system using adaptive network control functions that enables operators to make more complex program selections. They can now do away with the limitations of rigid coordination, in terms of both physical range and timing, to perform short-term traffic flow forecasting or change green time distribution and select scenarios. 

• MyCity C-Exchange 

  The first solution deployed in the field of cooperative, connected, and automated mobility (CCAM), where the interface serves as a secure data broker between SWARCO’s field devices and those of local systems and OEMs. MyCity C-Exchange connects infrastructure and vehicles by providing signal phase and time (SPAT) and helps to improve traffic flow, reduce congestion, and prepare cities for digitization. 

• MyCity Sign Manager 

  Used to control variable message signs that use the UTMC protocol. This means that any sign can be monitored and controlled in real time in the office or via mobile phone while in the field. Sign control helps improve traffic flow and reduce congestion by minimizing search traffic and optimizing route information. 

• MyCity PGS (Parking Guidance System) 

  An end-to-end parking solution that includes parking sign management, scenario management, custom dashboards, and analytical tools that provide a full overview of parking facilities and events. This cloud-based scenario management solution helps cities to digitize their work and transition from inefficient routines to a solution that makes it easier for day-to-day operators to solve their city’s parking management problems. 

• MyCity Journey Time 

  Visualize and report on extracted data from connected detectors for average, minimum, and maximum journey times, and provide an overview of vehicle speed and waiting times. It monitors the status of vehicles moving on a particular set of paths or sectors of paths. MyCity identifies which routes have the most and the least traffic delays and visualizes this data in real-time with color-coding on a map. You can choose to measure Journey Times using traditional detection and/or Floating Car Data (FCD).

• MyCity Vehicle Count 

  Monitor the number of vehicles and classify them into 19 categories, including vulnerable road users such as pedestrians and cyclists, as well as motor vehicles. The standard data model can easily be integrated with new data sources and extended to accommodate additional data sets. Using camera-based detection, cities can now better understand how their traffic looks on specific routes and base future investments on data. 

• MyCity Strategy Manager 

  Enabling operators to achieve the city’s goals and policies related to traffic, environment, and urban life. Data collection from various sources and visualization allows cities to analyze their efforts and proactively improve their mobility management strategies.

MyCity has been built to evolve as mobility evolves, allowing city managers to proactively respond to changes in urban mobility trends and the technology used to support them.

Thanks to its scalability, MyCity allows traffic managers to add new solutions any time or accommodate project-specific requirements. The accelerated change in urban mobility has brought with it the need to look beyond the perfectly engineered and customized system that can last for 10 or more years towards the urgent need for a modular and flexible system that can be quickly and easily adjusted to emerging technologies and urbanization. 

A single sign-on system gives access to important data and reports via an intuitive dash board, independent of location or device. MyCity shares and processes information with different data sources and acts as the aggregator of mobility-relevant data sources. It offers added value by fusing this information, building out further applications and by serving as a single point of control to a city.
