Select For Cities Hackathon Helsinki

Organized by INDRA/Minsait in cooperation with VTT

Make Helsinki a smarter city by developing an innovative data solution on the Onesait IoT and Big Data platform

The aim of the hackathon is to bring together a diverse range of perspectives, from academics to entrepreneurship and professionals to create innovative smart city solutions utilising Big Data and IoT. Participants will compete by developing a prototype using Onesait platform capabilities to improve Antwerp Smart Zone and Helsinki’s Jätkäsaari area. Some examples of possible solutions; new sensors to let the city speak (noise source detectors, crowds), gadgets and public devices for citizen interaction (actuators, sensors) or apps to increase city interactions or any other way to understand the Talk of The Town and improve citizens life. The developments have to be created on top of INDRA/Minsait’s Onesait Platform. You can use the wide selection of tools provided on the platform and the Data Sources loaded for both Antwerp and Helsinki environments. Examples of loaded data are air pollution, traffic flow, maritime traffic data... If you need it, you can upload your own Data Source. This hackathon is organized in conjunction with the Select4Cities project in Helsinki and Antwerp by INDRA/Minsait - this entry is for the Helsinki event.
