Essa notícia é anterior a catástrofe da região serrana do Rio. O Rio de Janeiro fez uma parceria com a IBM para um protótipo do conceito de Smart City, baseado na iniciativa da IBM denominada Smart Planet. A ideia é basicamente a construção de uma rede sensores espalhados pela cidade que permitam a previsão de eventos climáticos críticos e desastrosos. A ideia é permitir com uma antecedência de 48 horas a ocorrência desses eventos e a integração com a infraestrutura existente para execução de planos coordenados de evacuação.
In it’s bid to be the dominant platform in the emerging Smart City market, IBM has announced a partnership with Eduardo Paes, the mayor of Rio de Janeiro, to build a “Single City Operations Center” that would allow the mayor to monitor, command, & forecast critical events across the city. The contract offers IBM the chance to prototype their Smarter Planet platform on a world-class megacity. Focusing initially on forecasting extreme weather events like the disastrous floods & mudslides that wracked Rio in April 2010, the system will be built on IBM’s Deep Thunder platform and tuned to data from river basins, rainfall logs, topographic surveys, and satellite feeds. This will give Rio’s mayor and his COO (newly-appointed at IBM’s request) a 48hr head’s-up for forecasting extreme weather conditions likely to impact the city. The system would also integrate with existing civic infrastructure to help coordinate evacuation plans and traffic flows:
