Xiong'an New Area highlights the characteristics of a digital city
This year is the seventh year of the establishment of Xiong'an New Area. From a piece of land to a map, to the jointing growth of Xiong'an on the ground, the synchronous construction of Xiong'an on the cloud, and the "eyes" of smart light poles, the intelligent characteristics of Xiong'an New Area have become more and more prominent, and the intelligent application scenarios have become more abundant.
"Welcome to take the Xiong'an New Area No. 901 intelligent networked bus, please fasten your seat belts ......" board the unmanned intelligent networked bus at the Ding'an bus station in Xiong'an New Area, the vehicle smoothly enters the main road, the soft-packed seats are comfortable, and the route information on the electronic display screen in the car is clear at a glance.

According to Kou Tianhao, brand commissioner of Yuexiang Xiongan Technology Co., Ltd., the vehicle adopts pure electric operation mode and has a range of more than 200 kilometers. Equipped with radar, high-definition cameras, and integrated navigation, these devices are like the "eyes" and "brains" of autonomous vehicles, which can not only recognize traffic lights and lane markings during driving, but also automatically make actions such as overtaking, changing lanes, and making emergency stops. At present, the demonstration application of 5 scenarios of intelligent networked buses has been carried out, with a total of 9 demonstration routes, 72 stations, and a cumulative safe operation mileage of more than 150,000 kilometers. Kou Tianhao said.
There are "smart" cars, and there are "smart" roads. Xiong'an New Area has built the country's first large-scale regional-level digital road in the Rongdong area, and the traffic flow and road congestion index can be "known" to the roads in Xiong'an. The secret is hidden in the smart light poles on both sides of the road, and the cameras, radars and other intelligent facilities on them realize the collection and aggregation of traffic data, and transmit it to the unified cloud platform in real time.

"In addition to intelligent networked buses, unmanned retail vehicles, unmanned logistics vehicles, unmanned sweepers, unmanned patrol vehicles and other unmanned vehicles will also drive into the community of Xiong'an New Area, involving various areas of people's livelihood, and citizens will enjoy more achievements in digital city construction. Wang Zixuan, a staff member of the Office of the Leading Group for the Construction of Digital Cities in Xiong'an New Area, Hebei Province, said.
Intelligence is the distinctive characteristic of Xiong'an New Area, as a city of the future, that has been given at the beginning of planning. The reply of the State Council on the overall plan of Hebei Xiong'an New Area (2018-2035) clearly points out that it is necessary to adhere to the synchronous planning and construction of digital cities and real cities, moderately advance the layout of intelligent infrastructure, build broadband, integrated, secure and ubiquitous communication networks and intelligent multi-source perception systems, and build smart city information management centers.
Over the past seven years, Xiong'an New Area has ensured intelligent infrastructure, intelligent hubs and application security in an all-round and whole-process manner, and built an urban network security guarantee system. Establish an urban intelligent operation model and intelligent governance system, improve the urban intelligent livelihood service system, and build a world-leading digital smart city with deep learning capabilities.
On the west side of the Xiong'an Business Center and the east side of Yuerong Park, the arched urban computing center is called the "Eye of Xiong'an" because it resembles a smart big eye. This is the "brain" of Xiong'an, whether it is urban operation, government services, or smart transportation, smart life, all of which are inseparable from this intelligent hub.

Wang Yudong, deputy general manager of Xiong'an Cloud Network Technology Co., Ltd., the construction and operation unit of Xiong'an Urban Computing Center, said that the Urban Computing Center is an important carrier of Xiong'an Digital Twin City Operation Service System, and its edge computing, supercomputing, and cloud computing facilities provide network, computing, and storage services for the big data, blockchain, and Internet of Things of the entire digital twin city.
Walking into the "Eye of Xiong'an", Xiong'an on the cloud is clearly displayed in digital form, almost every physical building has a corresponding digital building, and the operation data of the new area is displayed in real time on a huge electronic screen. "Xiong'an New Area has built a comprehensive data platform, an urban information model platform, an Internet of Things platform and a video network platform. 'One center and four platforms' aggregates more than 28 billion pieces of urban operation data to achieve deep integration between physical cities and digital twin cities. Liu Yao, director of operation and maintenance of Xiong'an Cloud Network Technology Co., Ltd., introduced.
In addition, there are smart substations "hidden" in the garden, the hospital has a robot assistant, water, electricity, heat, gas and other pipelines "live" in the comprehensive pipe gallery, and the intelligent application scenarios of Xiong'an New Area are reflected in all aspects of urban operation and governance and people's livelihood services.
