BUSSOLA: A Cloud Collaborative Platform of Oriented Services to Passengers

BUS Services Mobilizing Living Lab, namely BUSSOLA, focuses on means of transport for people to make a living lab on the move upon which to design, implement and test innovative services that uses and feeds platform SmartDataNet. In particular, thanks to several sensors and devices, the system pays attention on three main macro-areas: air quality monitoring, passengers monitoring and safety on board the vehicles. A distributed and modular architecture has been adopted, to communicate and manage heterogeneous information. The solution is based on cloud technology for a better flexibility and scalability system and an easier adaptation at future requirements in term of computational resource and storage. It allows to experiment and adopt paradigms typical of the world of the Internet of Things and the Internet of Services, it made available by the platform SmartDataNet starting from the processing of big data and open-data.
