Strategic Target Name: Adding Circular Economy Compatible Process Optimization Capacity to Facility Management Systems with IoT (Internet of Things) and Spatial Data Analytics

Field of Activity of the Project: Process Management for Circular Economy with Advanced Technology

Project Summary: Our project aims to use advanced technology and equipment and materials more efficiently in many different sectors for sustainable urban life, to recycle them and to ensure that personnel work in more productive processes. In addition to providing IoT protocol and application underpinnings and data analytics support for the entire platform, the presented solution will also demonstrate a vertical IoT (Internet of Things) technology as proof of concept that achieves the stated goal. The word 'vertical' in this definition means that this solution includes all parts ranging from sensor equipment in the field to applications fed by analysis.

With its integrated IoT platform solution planned according to circular economy principles, it provides the basis for other projects under SUIT and transfers academic innovations from them, while aiming to offer a new product to the international market at the right time with a proof-of-concept integration in the production sector.
