Closing date: 20 Nov 2020
The Council’s Smart Trees project is an integrated park management and monitoring system, which has been in development since 2018. Council is seeking the community views on suggested designs, please vote and/or provide comment on the concept drawings below.
Designed to look like a tree, in providing both shade and aesthetics, this piece of community infrastructure provides real time data and intelligence to Council to enable better management of public spaces. For example, the tree can feed back information on park usage data, water efficiency and security or CCTV aspects, as well as providing WIFI and hub ability for public use.
Project partners include Alice Springs Town Council, Commonwealth Government and Ekistica (as project consultants). This is (approx.) $1million dollars project funded by the Commonwealth and Council.
