The Cologne-based startup dataMatters, a spin-off of RWTH Aachen University, has introduced urbanOS, which it claims is the world’s first operating system for Smart Cities. This municipal operating system functions similarly to computer or smartphone operating systems but is optimized for the “smartification” of urban infrastructure, ranging from traffic management and waste disposal to energy supply and public safety.
According to the company, the “digital town hall” is highly scalable – meeting the needs of cities, districts, and municipalities, from small towns to mid-sized cities and even large metropolitan areas.
