„SMARTER means that the process or the
element of the grid is:
INSTRUMENTED (measure, sense and see
the condition of everything),
INTERCONNECTED (people, systems and
objects can communicate and interact with each
other in entirely new ways),
INTELLIGENT (analysing and deriving
insight from larger and more verse sources of
information, predict and respond better to change).”
INFRASTRUCTURE
Type of boundary of urban zone, that is both part of the city and in contact with water. This term can be used both to describe the city as a whole – WATERFRONT CITIES
or type of landscape in cities – WATERFRONT SPACES

CONDITIONS FOR SMART INFRASTRUCTURE
DEVELOPMENT
GDYNIA
• Part of Tricity
• City rights – 10th February 1926
• Population – 247 799
• Area – 135,14 km²
STATE OF COMMUNITY- case study of Gdynia -
• development history• natural environment• land use & housing• transportation system• public utilities• socio-economic situation

RE
TRANSPORT INFRASTRUCTURE
• independent public transport systems in 3City• poor capacity of road network• private cars constitute most of the traffic• no public water transport
INTERMITTENT BUS LANES
WHY IN GDYNIA?
Linear spatial structure of the city and road system with leading two axes N-S leads to excessive use by the individual transport and as a result a congestion

PUBLIC BICYCLE SERVICE SYSTEM
WHY IN GDYNIA?
- to change structure of transport in Gdynia by increasing the share of bicycle and to make better use of the landscape and the advantages of the location – seashore and
beautiful views.
PARKING SYSTEM
Existing and new parking spaces should be integrated
with Tristar System. Thanks to that, everyone
could check availability of free parking spaces via mobile app or on
dedicated website.Parking system signs – examples.
WHY IN GDYNIA?
Due to lack of free space for new car parks there is a need to smarten the present system. Opportunity to check availability of free parking spaces in downtown may
help to avoid congestion in city centre.
WATER TRANSPORTATION
PROPOSED WATER TAXI STOPS:•Gdynia – Babie Doły, Oksywie, Waterfront (existing Molo Rybackie), South Pier, Seaside Boulevard, Orłowo
•Sopot – Pier•Gdańsk – Jelitkowo, Brzeźno, Nowy Port
(and then become a part of Gdańsk water tram system)WHY IN GDYNIA?
Make use of water access and creating alternatives to car roads and rail

P/R INFORMATION SYSTEM
PASSENGER INFORMATION SYSTEM with screens that will display current information about the functioning of public transport.
ROAD INFORMATION SYSTEM along main roads in Gdynia.
WHY IN GDYNIA?
PIS could help citizens to navigate around the city and would inform passengers in advance about problems in the public transport and existing hazards.
RIS could help to unload traffic during rush hours and to control traffic during accidents or other random events which could affect the traffic in the city.
AUTOMATIC CARS
CARS FOR RENT by smartphone app and special card or just credit card. AUTOMATIC CARS that don’t need driver interference.
WHY IN GDYNIA?
Automatic cars are more efficient and less accident-prone than man-operated vehicles. Introducing automatic cars could help improve the traffic situation.
BASIC SUPPLY INFRASTRUCTU
RE
• energy supply based on non-renewable energy sources
RENEWABLE ENERGY GENERATORS
New in-conduit hydropower technologyEnergy from the fast-flowing water in the large-diameter and gravity-fed pipelines
WHY IN GDYNIA?
Favorable geographical conditions (terrain height differences)
Most of energy in Gdynia still from non-renewable energy sources

WIND SOLAR STREET LED LIGHTS
WHY IN GDYNIA?
Favorable coastal climate

HARBOUR HEAT PUMPS
Mechanical system which draws HEATING AND COOLING from the adherent seashore.
Heat pumps pull the cooling or heating from circulation loop, as needed, and sending it to perimeter heating/ cooling in the building.
WHY IN GDYNIA?
Sea is a heat accumulator. Winter temperatures near the bottom of the sea (south shore of Baltic) have an average of 5-8 C, in summer 14-17 C

ENERGY FROM WAVES
WHY IN GDYNIA?
Energy from wave is a renewable and environment friendly source of power,
it is also abundant and widely available

FLOATING HOMES
WHY IN GDYNIA?
In recent years, floating houses have become one of the solutions to contemporary housing needs.
Gdynia as a waterfront city should also be able to offer such opportunities

EFFICIENT SHOWER SYSTEMS
WHY IN GDYNIA?
Beaches in Gdynia require infrastructural facilities like showers,
while this type of showers helps to reduce the water and energy consumption

SOCIAL INFRASTRUCTU
RE
SOCIAL
Network, cooperation and using new technologies are key elements to bring educational system on higher level. Sharing experience and gathering information
from all over the world (or all over the region) are really important for new generation of students, in preaparing them for functioning in ‘global village’.
• shore devastation• lack of possibilities for big data analysis • few smart means of contact between the citizens and municipal government
PUBLIC ORDER AND
PROTECTION
SMART METERS AND SENSORS WITH APPLICATIONS BASED ON DATA
WHY IN GDYNIA?
Smart meters and sensors should be implemented in many areas of
everyday life: real-time data collection leads to new SMART solutions
– e.g. smartphone applications based on the collected data

FIXMYSTREET PLATFORM + WIFI
Platform Fixmystreet helps in everyday life, but also needs constant access to high-speed internet connection.
WHY IN GDYNIA?
Not introduced in any Polish city – Gdynia as a good example for others Creating additional hotspots in public transport (buses, trolleys)
as a convenience for residents and tourists

ACTION FOR PROTECTING THE SEASHORE
year 1900 and 2004
WHY IN GDYNIA?
Natural water erosion has been changing the cliff in Gdynia for many years.
Especially Orłowo cliff should be protected because of its unique
landscape and tourism potential

• poor innovativeness of local economy

DEVELOPMENT OF MARINE BIOTECHNOLOGY
WHY IN GDYNIA?
There is a prediction of a growth in the marine biotechnology in the coming years at world scale. Gdynia has scientific and research background needed.

DEVELOP WATERFRONT CITY MORE CONCENTRICALLY
WHY IN GDYNIA?
Gdynia should consider possibilities of expansion in the seaside direction.
May become a self-sufficient floating district-city like Dubai, or stable
island like in new districts (Zeeburgereiland) in Amsterdam
