Short paper: Sensors data fusion for Smart Cities with KNIME: A real experience in the SmartSantander Testbed

Abstract

Big Data is conceived as the powerful tool to exploit all the potential of the Internet of Things and the Smart Cities. A new dimension of understanding about the human behaviours is expected to be reached through all the gathered data in the emerging smart environment. This work analyses the data from the European Project SmartSantander. This work has correlated the traffic behaviour with respect to the temperature in the Santander City. This has been presented as the evolution of both flows present a similar behaviour. Specifically, they present a fine grain correlation of over the 57%. Finally, it has been also presented as the traffic distribution, aggregated by temperature bins, follows up a Poisson distribution model. Thereby, allowing interpolate and predict complex behaviours based on simple measures such as the temperature.
