Solingen Gets Tech Upgrade: Camera Vehicles Map City in 3D
Solingen is set to undergo a technological upgrade with camera vehicles operated by Cyclomedia Germany GmbH conducting a comprehensive image search and 3D laser scan of the city's streets, pedestrian zones, and public facilities from October 13 to November 10, 2023. The client for this project is the city of Solingen itself.
The vehicles will not only capture visual data but also collect precise measurements of the road space using laser scanning technology. This data will be used internally by the city's administration to keep track of the road space and traffic infrastructure, ensuring it is up-to-date and well-maintained.
To ensure privacy, faces and vehicle license plates in the images will be made unrecognizable before the data is delivered and used. This adheres to strict data protection regulations, balancing the need for information with the right to privacy.
The city of Solingen expects this project to make work processes more efficient, saving time and reducing costs. With up-to-date information about its infrastructure, the city can make informed decisions and improve its services. The project is set to conclude on approximately November 10, 2023.
