Almaty won bronze in South Korea for its urban data geanalytics platform project

The "Smart City" Award is an international competition that was held for the first time this year. It was approved by the Seoul Metropolitan Government and the World Smart Sustainable Cities Organization to encourage megacities to adopt new technologies.

This year, Almaty won the bronze award in the Tech-InnovaCity category for its innovative GEO-ANALYTICS.KZ project. Wellington took gold, while Madrid and Los Angeles won silver in this category.

The competition received 240 applications: participants included not only cities proposing innovative solutions but also private companies that developed unique technological products. The jury evaluated projects in three categories: Tech-InnovaCity, Human-CentriCity, and Leadership.

The Almaty-based GEO-ANALYTICS.KZ platform can integrate various data in real time while preserving the history of changes.

This is a universal tool for analyzing urban data. By processing all incoming information, the system can identify where there is a shortage of schools, Centers for Public Services (CPS), and kindergartens, assess the load on road infrastructure, and monitor the activity of small and medium-sized businesses to provide targeted assistance.
