Activities

		Baltimore Community Resilience Hub
		Baltimore is highly vulnerable to a range of natural hazards, including coastal storms, flooding, extreme heat, and high winds. These types of extreme events are likely to increase in frequency and magnitude over the coming years. These natural hazards, combined with exacerbated influences of climate change, create impacts that will affect the City’s residents, businesses, infrastructure, and natural systems, and threaten regionally significant assets.
		My Digital Data Locker Baltimore
		For those staying in a shelter or shuttling between other people’s homes, keeping track of these vital documents can be near impossible. They also can be lost, destroyed or stolen. Recognizing that this was blocking some people from securing stable housing, the city of Baltimore this year launched an innovative program — My Digital Data Locker — to help people store and keep track of key documents.
		Smart Transit Hubs - B Smart
		Pilot a smart street light corridor within a system of transit “super-nodes” developed by transforming current major transit stations into transit hubs (Hubs) defined by: connected, city-wide mobile resources; public wifi last mile, multi-modal transport between and to/from Hubs (car share, bike share, ride share, preferably electric vehicles with EV-charging at Hub) GPS / GIS / location services Bus rapid transit, preferably electric, running non-stop Hub to Hub
		Smart Waste Management & Logistics: Ecube Labs
		Objectives Deployment of solar waste compacting bins, ultrasonic fill-level sensors and trackers/beacons Utilization of data resource management platform to monitor & analyze various data points

		How Open-Source Software Makes Cities More Livable
		St. Francis is now rolling out a new calendaring and scheduling service on its website, designed to help neighborhood people register for services or reserve space for events.
		Launch of My Digital Data Locker Baltimore
		Baltimore’s Continuum of Care (CoC) have launched My Digital Data Locker Baltimore – a web-based tool that gives people experiencing homelessness a secure place to manage digital copies of vital documents needed to obtain housing services.
