Slide 1: As we progress to the future, cities are experiencing a growth in demand of various resources; CitySmart will help facilitate collaborative efforts in the creation of sustainable cities. In an effort to expedite the development and creation of sustainable cities around the world, A World Bridge (AWB) teams have started the development of our own CitySmart prototype from Kodiak's 100% renewable energy system, and Fei Tian Academy of the Arts Sustainable Campus.
----------
Slide 2: AWB teams include Kodiak Island, Alaska School District, Fei Tian Academy of the Arts (New York), and the Yupiit School District in Alaska, collaborating to share multiple tasks, such as analyzing energy, water, and food budget. We are also sharing operation and maintenance data for understanding the “how to” build, maintain, fund, and manage renewable and sustainable systems.
----------
Slide 3: The CitySmart-WorldWise application was demonstrated at the first CitySmart conference in Europe in March 2017, and in the United States at the first international CitySmart conference in California in May 2017.
----------
Slides 4 and 5: The Graphic User Interface’s design is a manifestation of its localization to the UN Sustainable Development Goals with a geospatial layer manager (left vertical menu) and O&M Data (horizontal). In 2015 the UN General Assembly formally accepted a new set of 17 measurable Sustainable Development Goals. Our application fits in #7, and #11 of theses SDG (Affordable and clean energy, and sustainable cities and communities)

Slide 6: There are currently over 70+ place marks around the globe that create pop-up boxes when it’s selected. Pop-up boxes have the site’s photo, a brief description, its latitude and longitude, and a link to a website with further detail.
----------
Slide 7: This layer shows all the A World Bridge Earthquake Signal Precursor sensors with links to the ESP application created last year. This application placed first in last year’s NASA Europa Challenge. This application reads electromagnetic fields continuously, in real time. This enables us to look for, and study, anomalies that occur before earthquakes. One day, we hope these anomalies will allow us to enable us to trigger warnings based upon the strength of magnetic anomalies, distances, and directions to the hypocenters. In the future, this application will be helping communities to stay sustainable and safe in the event of an earthquake.
Slide 8: This pop-up dialog box demonstrates the AWB site information for Kodiak, Alaska
----------
Slide 9: This site and pop-up box shows information from the AWB team in Middletown, New York. There is information about their water quality tests, including graphically visualized data and a link to more detailed information.

Slides 10 and 11: Under “Energy Distribution,” we have multiple layers depicting parts of Kodiak’s energy grid. This one shows the entire grid with yellow arrows that indicate the direction of energy flow.

Slides 12,13,14,15: These next layers show overhead cables, and underground cables, and the transmission lines from Kodiak’s Dam. These include 3d poles, and when you enable layers together, you can see the interaction between them. For example, when showing the overhead cables (pink lines) and underground cables (yellow lines), you can see where they meet and transform.

Slides 18 and 19: Orthomosaic are 3d layers GeoTif- maps rendered from hundreds of high resolution photos that are then projected onto the globe; these may take longer to load than other layers . This layer shows the KEA wind farm combined with a Placemark to describe it. These Placemarks are created from a single .csv file and their pop-up boxes are dynamically created when chosen.

Slide 20: This orthomosaic features the U.S. Coast Guard’s Bear Valley Golf Course and provides high detail of the project site, allowing the user to study the layout and distribution of vegetation while making an informed decision on Nano-agricultural testing locations.
—————
Slide 21: This workflow diagram shows how the orthomosaics and grid layers are
projected onto the globe. For the orthomosaics, hundreds of high resolution
photos are taken from above the site using high-definition cameras on drones
from our Unmanned Aircraft Systems-Scientific Applications team; these are then
converted into orthomosaic Geo-rectified maps of the location using various
software programs. For the various grids available in this application, our
partner, Kodiak Electric Association, provided us with a CAD file that we
extracted DWGs from and then converted into GIS shape files. Once the
orthomosaics are completed and the grid layers are in the correct format, they
are stored in a geospatial server accessed through JavaScript to add the layers
to the globe.
—————
Slide 22: This next workflow diagram is a more in depth version of the previous diagram. It also features the construction of the Placemarks on the globe. The Placemarks are defined in a single .csv file that is processed through JavaScript and added to the globe; their pop-up boxes are created dynamically from the information in the .csv files. Once a placemark is located, it checks for the location inside the parsed .csv and identifies location of the required information. After locating the information, it is input into another JavaScript function that changes the html of the pop-up box and triggers visualization.

Slides 28-34: For food sustainability
research, this information contains student experimental work on the
utilization of Nanotechnology in Agriculture project. A World Bridge students
treated and tested poor soils throughout the community to develop farming solutions
without pesticides, and only organic fertilizers. One of reasons why there are so
few farms in Kodiak is because of the massive amount of compressed volcanic ash
under the soil from volcanic events over 100 years ago. Now, this volcanic ash
makes soil very acidic, which obstructs plants’ growth. AWB teams have been
testing the effectiveness of Nano-Ag to create development of nutrient-ready soil
conditions at the U.S. Coast Guard’s Bear Valley Golf Course. All reports and
data are available in the O&M section.

Slides 37-39: The first graph page displays the kilowatt production, wind speed, and rpm of the Kodiak High School wind turbine; this page is also accessible through the Placemark under “Energy” and “Wind.” A raspberry pi CPU collects data at 1Hz from a radio transmitter onboard the wind turbine, then sends the data to an Influx database for storage and analysis. The data is then visualized on the web frontend through dynamic gauges and graphs. However, due to hardware updates, the KHS data is currently static.

FTAA tested the drinking water from the academy to determine any contaminant levels that are harmful - and minerals that are good for the health of the body. The AWB team plans to compare the drinking water quality to the regulations of the National Primary Drinking Water standards, to confirm safe levels for our students and staff. From conducting these tests, we have confirmed that all the results are within the regulations.

Slide 55: Education Outreach - This CitySmart-WorldWise application is designed to provide community administrators the information necessary to understand the current status of resources, and condition of their communities.The ability to quickly review the status of power generation and distribution, water quality and treatment levels, food production and distribution, and many other systems allows these administrators to plan future strategies and action to adjust to new, and environmental change conditions. Additionally, students are generating and acquiring these data, which creates understanding and education outreach for the entire community, and promotes collaboration between the communities’ systems and culture.
