Smart City in Wiesbaden

Inspection of the Wiesbaden city area on behalf of the state capital Wiesbaden

Information on data protection for citizens: As part of the ongoing digitalization and further development into a smart city, the state capital of Wiesbaden is currently having the public road network recorded by camera vehicles.

This creates 360-degree panoramic images and precise 3D point clouds of the Wiesbaden streetscape. Cyclomedia Deutschland GmbH was commissioned with the implementation.

Purpose of the inspection

The purpose of the survey is to map the physical environment of publicly accessible spaces in the Wiesbaden city area digitally, precisely and up-to-date in order to make the data efficiently usable for administrative processes, planning, infrastructure management and similar applications. The data is used exclusively for internal municipal tasks, for example

  • Planning, maintenance and further development of roads, paths and urban infrastructure
  • Preparation and monitoring of construction and transportation projects
  • Documentation of the cityscape
  • Optimization of internal administrative processes

The images are not published on the Internet.

What data is recorded?

During the journey, panoramic images of the public road space and three-dimensional geodata are recorded. People or vehicles may appear randomly in the image. To protect privacy, faces and vehicle license plates are automatically blurred by pixelation.

Who can view the data?

Access is granted exclusively to selected municipal employees, primarily from building, planning and regulatory offices, municipal enterprises and municipal companies with a legitimate interest.

Storage duration

The anonymized image and 3D data are permanently archived for planning, documentation and administrative purposes.
