The DBOX system plays a crucial role in enhancing situational awareness within smart cities by providing real-time aerial data for better urban management. It can gather data of the condition of rooftops, identify long-abandoned vehicles, help tracking rain or snow accumulation on roads and in residential courtyards, and assess road safety conditions. DBOX can also gather data on the condition and capacity of heat distribution networks, enabling more efficient maintenance and energy management. Additionally, the system supports waste management by identifying the accumulation of bulky waste in public areas and detecting overflowing trash bins, allowing for timely interventions and improving overall city cleanliness. DBOX helps smart cities make informed, data-driven decisions to optimize urban living conditions.
