Rewriting the Future of Smart Cities: ZNV Launches Smart City Information Management
SHENZHEN, China, Nov. 3, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Global surveillance supplier ZNV held a release conference for its latest product SCIM (Smart City Information Management) in Beijing on October 26, 2016, and officially launched the new application in the global market. Lots of visitors attended the release conference and were deeply impressed by demonstration and introduction of the new product.
Software platforms from many manufacturers in the existing market provide a limited capacity of computing, and due to private protocols they use, there are always barriers to interconnection among these platforms and information exchanges and sharing are not available. Consequently, isolated information islands emerge and become a significant obstacle to smart city development.
SCIM launched by ZNV is just the solution to the above problem. To achieve data integration and sharing, ZNV SCIM accesses and integrates different types of cameras or power and environment monitoring and sensing devices from a variety of manufacturers, and supports thousands of protocols accumulated in dozens of years. The software standardizes information, breaks through isolated information islands, and classifies, marks, authorizes and prices the information to prepare for in-depth applications in the future.
Besides, classified retrieval and management analysis of mass data generated during smart city construction rely on big data technologies, as traditional models cannot satisfy big data management requirements. In light of this, ZNV successfully combines big data technologies with its information management and security techniques developed for years, provides diverse services, for example, multi-source information acquisition, mass data convergence, intelligent analysis and processing, in-depth mining of big data, city trend display and report and beneficial information for the people, and builds a new mode for city management and social services, so as to realize core values of new Smart City 3.0.
ZNV Executive Chairman and CEO Robert Zhu said at the release conference that smart city development is the most popular field and national investment in it has gone beyond RMB250 billion yuan (USD37 billion). There are more than 500 smart cities being planned or constructed across the country, and smart city development will be promoted as expected. However, information and data cannot be shared during construction of some cities, so they are not smart enough without sharing in the view of ZNV. Fortunately, ZNV SCIM perfectly achieves the purpose of sharing and smart cities.
As introduced by ZNV CTO Joe Cao and demonstrated by technicians at the conference, ZNV SCIM is designed on the basis of thorough understanding of smart city construction. It utilizes ZNV's 10 core technologies about security and power and environment developed over 20 years, and innovatively creates an information sharing core product applicable to new smart cities. The product consists of three parts: resource sharing, content sharing, and service sharing, which were the most noteworthy features that caught visitors' eyes.
First, SCIM quickly accesses and integrates various information resources. Based on long-term technical accumulation and market development, the product accesses various protocols and information more easily, including video and power and environment signals, computer and IT data and other diverse signals of devices from other companies, as well as information from varied power and environment devices in safe city, intelligent traffic, emergency response, power supply and communication systems developed by a variety of manufacturers in different phases.
Then, SCIM sorts, classifies, authorizes, and prices various information to reach the goal of information sharing. The product not only provides quick and convenient information query, but also comprehensively manages real-time information and historical data in the aim of helping decision makers find the relationship among data and make a correct prediction. This is a unique technology in the existing market.
Third, SCIM realizes in-depth applications and quick customization for customers. In consideration of different backgrounds and requirements of smart cities, ZNV customizes in-depth applications in the SCIM framework according to specific customer requirements, and has achieved success in some in-depth application cases.
Robert Zhu said, "We intended to build an ecological chain on the open, inclusive and integrated sharing platform in the win-win situation with partners. In this way, as the country advocates, we can grasp new smart city development, rely on the means of data centralization and sharing, and construct an integrative national big data center.
"The key to smart cities is to create information sharing, bring beneficial information to the people, integrate existing systems into planned ones, and break through isolated information islands. ZNV is willing to make joint efforts with all partners to rewrite the future of smart cities and work as the major builders of smart cities."
