Siemens Operating System for Cities

First published in ITS World Congress Preview - October 4, 2019

Siemens will have a significant presence at the ITS World Congress Singapore to highlight its Operating System for Cities that combines all the trends of future mobility in one, powerful and elegant system.

As Siemens points out, the level of traffic complexity will dramatically increase in future mobility systems because of the continually growing demand for transportation as well as increasing levels of automation and connectivity of assets. For instance, self-driving vehicles will gain market share and play a fundamental role as a mode of transport, and autonomous driving will disrupt mobility – especially on the roads.

Siemens believes that coordination is crucial for such a growingly complex mobility system. That is why its Operating Systems for Cities solution combines all the trends of future mobility. It enables cities to centrally manage traffic and provide seamless point-to-point connectivity across all modes. It also allows easy and flexible demand responsive transport and fully automated SDV’s, only differentiated by user groups and capacity. In summary, from trip planning across passenger communication to mobile ticketing, payment and comprehensive mobility as a Service (MaaS) solutions, Siemens says its solutions enhance the passenger experience.

This integration of Siemens systematic approach from traffic planning to traffic management includes all levels that a city needs to manage future mobility trends.
