2 HOP Ubiquitous S.L. A pioneer company on innovation and Internet of Things (IoT) solutions developing full integrated research solutions for Smart Cities. We focus on the development of IoT products with ubiquitous connectivity to meet the needs of the human being at a global level, for this reason we have created innovative low power modules with M2M, IoT & LPWAN communications capabilities; allowing the connection of different platforms and products. Our IoT solutions use open APIs permitting to collaborate with IT companies such as Fujitsu, Nokia and Microsoft. We design our own hardware and firmware allowing scalable management that facilitates the implementation of large-scale deployments, maintenance, monitoring and ad-hoc sensors to meet the demand of the market. Wework in ETSI ISG CIM (FIWARE data models) and ETSI onem2m. Members Smart Cities Data Models Gold Members Smart Cities Open Ecosystem IoT & Smart Cities Members Data Processing & Management (FG-DPM) Co-chair Quality of Data Sensors (IEEE PAR 2510)

3 INSIGHT HOP Ubiquitous (NUIG) S.L. Experts on research enabling the convergence of software systems, the semantic web and the Internet, heavily focused on the evolution of Sensor Technologies, Artificial Intelligence and Robotics Systems. We investigate the use of Semantic technologies and cyber-security fundamentals to unify the real and the virtual worlds. Leaders on adaptive IoT middleware technology which abstracts data from heterogeneous sensor networks and bring this to a higher application-level(s) for enabling Big Data Systems management and also enable interconnected sensor networks and IoT sensor web data interoperability by using the Internet. The main areas of interest at IoT-Lab are as follow: Internet of things Architecture, Systems and Applications. M2M communication and End-to-End System Solutions. Methods and Algorithms for Big Data, Collection and Transformation. Cloud Computing Infrastructures and Data Management Platforms. Privacy and Security-Enabled Middleware Platforms. Member XG-SSN (W3C SOSA) Co-chair EU IERC (AIOTI WG01) Co-chair IoT Experimentation (IEEE ComSoc)

6 Smart HOP Ubiquitous Destinations S.L. in Europe Tourism and City interaction Supported by: Services for Citizens Provided by: The customized design of cities is required in modern capitals to enhance the integration and interaction of visitors within cities, creating a complete, memorable and positive experience for the user. Smart City experience is achieved when a fluid or natural tourism is part of the city. Smart POIs are strategic areas of interest, consisting of a set of Smart Spots (the specific point of virtual connection) that points to a URL and create a physical space into a portal of information where everyone approaching the spot o spots can collaborate through a smart device to enhance the space. Users FIESTA-IoT CIty IoT Data from Deployed IoT City Platforms Smart Spots are a medium that defines communication between cultural heritage and the visitors or citizens. It offers direct access to different tourist services and products in a simpler way. The following are the main characteristics of a Smart Spot: Connect physical objects or places with the smart devices. Open a Online Applications with information designed to specific point All the information is sent to the cloud

7 Smart HOP Ubiquitous Destinations S.L. in Europe - HOP FINE-TUNE Project* Advanced air quality data analytics based on open and semantic annotated data Laboratory for advanced & Accurate Calibration. Reducing effect of cross sensitivity and individually for each sensor. Algorithms to estimate the gas concentration (PPB) with high accuracy. Algorithms to detect anomalies and loses of precisioon over time. Algorithms to adjust sensor parameters during device lifetime (fatigue compensation). Fine tune with cross systems data transfer based on Open Data** **FIESTA-IoT provides tools and federated access to open and semantic annotated data for air quality parameters in cities such as Santander, Spain, Crete, Greece, Paris, France,Guilford, UK. *Supported by FIESTA-IoT Project Open Call 2 for SMEs
