Features

Communication with different smart city technologies

The ODP’s Open Standard Multiprotocol Middleware helps the platform to connect and communicate with different district management systems even if they utilise different communication technologies.

Data ingestion, transformation, and analytics

The ODP, via its Open Standard Multiprotocol Middleware, ingests data streams from various systems. These data streams will then be processed and transformed in real-time allow sense-making for greater situational awareness. It also analyses data from different systems and sensors and uses AI such as machine learning to predict and send commands to systems in response to real-world happenings.

Real-time monitoring of systems and operations

The ODP integrates real-time information from a network of sensors and IoT devices.

Digital twin

The workings of ODP can be visualised via a digital twin, which is a virtual representation based on a real-life 3D model. This digital twin will include real-world data, such as power consumption, weather forecasts, and temperature readings. With the digital twin, developers are able to run simulations of real-world scenarios before actual implementations. For instance, developers can use it to test new products and processes such as training the software of autonomous vehicles.

Integration with building systems and building services

The ODP has been integrated with building systems that include:

  • Elevator systems
  • Escalator systems
  • Building Air-Conditioning and Mechanical Ventilation (ACMV) systems
  • Access control and security systems.

It has also successfully been integrated with building services such as:

  • Robotic delivery
  • Electric vehicle charging stations
  • Meeting room occupancy
  • Temperature monitoring and control.

Roadmap

Future development

GovTech continues to further enhance the ODP, with the goal of scaling it as a comprehensive Smart Facilities Management (FM) solution for the Singapore Government. In addition, it is working closely with other agencies to proliferate its use beyond FM, to support them in their need for Operational Technology (OT) interoperability regardless of domain.
