During a recent virtual meeting, city and county representatives and their Georgia Tech partners from the latest class of the Georgia Smart Communities Challenge program discussed the status of their projects and the challenges they’ve faced along the way.
The amount of data generated around the world has exploded. It’s available in volume and quality unmatched in human history. Now, this data can be used to create a city’s Digital Twin that can give us insight and a deeper understanding of the communities we live in.

SCI2 Launches #SMARTer Together Webinar Series
We are proud to introduce the #SMARTer Together webinar series. This series aims to challenge us beyond the immediate crisis and onto a newer state where we have another chance to build strong community-research partnerships for good. By focusing on complex, societal problems that communities all over GA and the rest of the world face, we aim to provide innovative research and create partnerships to empower all. We adhere to GT’s Strategic Plan and Mission on “developing leaders who advance technology and improve the human condition.”
We believe all communities can be smart. Through the integration of technology and data, communities of various sizes, geographies, and development can be empowered to improve their quality of life. That is why we have pulled together a cross-sectoral partnership to raise awareness and knowledge, develop networks, and implement smart projects. This monthly newsletter is part of this greater effort!
