On February 7-8, 2017, The City of Kansas City, Missouri, KC Digital Drive and Think Big Partners held the “NIST / KCMO Supercluster Platform Workshop” that attracted over 120 participants from around the world. During this two-day event, participants came with a list of problems and questions associated with smart city data and the city platform that was needed to manage it. Additionally, inter and intra-departmental data management issues were also discussed to develop cross-sector understanding of the data platform required to make inter-departmental decisions in a near real-time, macro-city management basis.
The format for the event was based on small breakout groups, facilitated by a table leader. Each table compromised of various public and private sector participants and each session had a specific focus for discussion. These focus areas included:
- Analyzing your cities challenges (the problems)
- Operationalizing the data (use cases)
- Essentials for success
- Crossing Silos
- Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s)
- Financing and managing for the future
