Predictive Analytics
The ability to forecast future trends through knowledge extraction methods is a major R&D focus of webLyzard. This includes the two digital journalism initiatives ReTV and SONAR, recently presented at the annual summit of the Global Editors Network, and the new EcoMove project that will anticipate mobility bottlenecks to avoid overcrowding and promote more sustainable behavior.
Another sustainability project, the visual analytics platform built for UN Environment, showcases our latest software release Panther Chameleon - including extended PDF reporting and a range of other new features.

Sustainability
EcoMove | Knowledge-Based Platform to Predict Mobility Bottlenecks. Incorporating the insights from our SDG and Climate Resilience initiatives, the EcoMove project will develop knowledge-based solutions for sustainable movement in smart cities. These solutions will provide customized information about mobility options. Citizens, visitors and professional stakeholders will gain access to real-time mobility recommendations, for example to plan and prioritize necessary travel. The City of Vienna will serve as our use case, but the developed methods will be generic and applicable to other cities and regions as part of future projects.
