City-Wide IoT Monitoring with GIS Visualisation
Give city operations teams a single view of infrastructure across every district — sensors, street lighting, environmental monitors, parking, and more — on a live GIS map. Monitor conditions in real-time, respond to alerts with geographic context, and manage city-wide IoT from one unified platform.
Visualise Your Entire City on One Map
The CONTEXUS GIS Platform brings city-wide IoT infrastructure to life on satellite imagery. See every sensor, meter, and connected device positioned precisely on the map. Monitor environmental conditions, track device health, and respond to alerts—all with geographic context that makes urban management intuitive.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Smart City Monitoring and how does GIS visualisation work?
Smart City Monitoring is a comprehensive IoT platform that deploys sensors across urban areas and visualises them on GIS (Geographic Information System) maps. CONTEXUS overlays real-time sensor data on satellite imagery, enabling city managers to see device locations, status, and readings directly on interactive maps covering entire districts or city-wide deployments.
What types of IoT devices can be monitored on the city-wide GIS map?
CONTEXUS supports a wide range of urban IoT devices including environmental sensors (air quality, temperature, humidity), smart street lighting, traffic sensors, parking sensors, waste management monitors, water quality sensors, noise monitoring devices, energy meters, and security cameras. Each device type displays with distinctive icons on the GIS map for easy identification.
How does the platform handle large-scale sensor deployments across a city?
The platform is designed for scalability with support for thousands of IoT devices distributed across multiple districts. GIS-based clustering automatically groups nearby sensors at zoom-out levels, while zoom-in reveals individual device locations. Real-time data streaming ensures all sensor readings are current, with alert thresholds triggering notifications for any anomalies.
Can the smart city platform integrate with existing municipal systems?
Yes, CONTEXUS integrates with existing municipal infrastructure including traffic management systems, utility SCADA networks, emergency services, and building management systems. Standard protocols (MQTT, REST APIs, BACnet, Modbus) ensure compatibility with diverse legacy systems while enabling centralised city-wide visibility.
What analytics and reporting capabilities are available for city operations?
The platform provides comprehensive analytics including trend analysis across time periods, comparative district performance, environmental compliance reporting, energy consumption patterns, and predictive maintenance alerts. Customisable dashboards enable different departments (environmental, traffic, utilities) to focus on relevant KPIs while maintaining unified city oversight.
