Environment

Pollution is, nowadays, one of the biggest issues all around the world. Most of it comes from cars either from people commuting or from people looking for a parking spot.

EMBERS, provides you with air quality and pollution data from cities, for you to try and optimize the parking, traffic or other kinds of transportation to reduce the pollution on that city. This can be done with Big Data Analysis on the data that is on platform and correlating it with traffic and/or parking to try and optimize the traffic on the cities.

EMBERS empowers you with the necessary tooling to solve this issue and solve the pollution issue on every city nowadays.

Public and Private Transportation

Imagine that your city center is filled with pollution. A good idea would be to stop people from going there by car, to avoid a high polluted area.

EMBERS enables you to correlate public and private transportation routes, to give you a single route with different transportation modes without changing your destination.

Logistics

Imagine the chaos it is while someone parks in the reserved delivery location at the front of your store! You need to park the van farther away than you’d normally would and bring everything by hand.

With the information integrated in EMBERS you can access the type of a specific parking place, in this case, a reserved one and monitor when someone has parked in that spot. From there you can be notified and see, in real time, who has parked and act upon it.

EMBERS provides you this information, it’s just a matter of constructing the business logic on top of it!
