Concept “Bus rapid transit station” installed in campus area (New shelter, heating systems, intelligent tickets identification)

Task U5: Digital blueprint describing the BRT-station, including travel statistics and photos of the design and building phase and the completed result. This is to show that the construction is complete and used in the area.

Street lights (300) replaced by intelligent LED columns

Task G6 A screenshot of the central management system showing the project district and highlighting the installed intelligent LED lighting infrastructure with a detailed key explaining the extent of the intelligence and connections to comms and EV infrastructure In addition a report detailling the operational parameters of the LED lighting and associated connected assets

European workshop 5/5

The fifth in a series of workshops designed to provide an opportunity to showcase the experiences of the Lighthouse and Follower cities together with reactions from other stakeholders eg industry partners and representatives from other Smart City Projects With a strong focus on interaction and peerto peer exchange efforts will be made to find innovative ways of documenting these workshops to maximise dissemination These will be held within the scope or backtoback with EuropeanInternational Smart city events

Data Management and Data Protection Plan

RUGGEDISED will capitalise on the development of a welldefined Data Management Plan DMP A data management plan will be developed in the first six months of the project D921 as described previously in section 225 It will describe all of the data that will be created in the project and how this data will be handled during the project and after its completion All data and methodologies will be openly accessible at the completion of the project as far as possible via the main project websiteThe Data Management Plan DMP will includeData Types Formats Standards and Capture MethodsEthics and Intellectual PropertyAccess Data Sharing and ReuseResourcingDeposit and LongTerm PreservationShortTerm Storage and Data ManagementDMP will comply with the EC DMP template14 and will specify how the generated data will be easily discovered preferably via DOI and accessed ensuring open access by adopting the adequate licensing scheme eg Creative Commons License Moreover DMP will describe quality evaluating toolsprocedures which will prove the data intelligibility DMP will also define the type of accompanying information in the form of metadata or short description to allow potential users to gain awareness on the data concepts and evaluate their suitability for future useAs the Ethics commission has raised points related to personal data collection storage protection retention and destruction which in turn has lead to the Ethics requirements attributed to Ruggedised the DMP will synchronise with the relevant deliverable of the coordinator
