A Smart City Dashboard for Combining and Analysing Multi-source Data Streams

Smart city projects are making available numerous, diverse, potentially valuable data streams. However, it is cumbersome and laborious for domain experts to identify, analyse and inter-relate such streams. In this paper we describe a system that is designed to support these users to obtain an understanding of key features of individual streams, and to undertake a variety of analyses that inter-relate multiple streams. Three case studies are presented, showing the use of the system to process live car-park, weather, building energy consumption and bicycle journey data from the CityVerve Smart City project in Manchester.
