Meeting the need for smart mobility solutions

Concepts that make transport more efficient are in demand with the ever-increasing need for mobility. With our long-standing transport expertise and our IT know-how, we are constantly developing new, intelligent mobility solutions that increase availability of infrastructure, optimize throughput and improve passenger experience. It’s in how we electrify, automate and digitalize infrastructure that we’re setting the benchmark for tomorrow’s mobility – today.

Integrated Mobility

Satisfying the need for seamless mobility

People today expect and need solutions that make their daily mobility simpler, more flexible, faster, more reliable and affordable. Cities and national economies, on the other hand, face the challenge of reducing the costs, space requirements, noise and CO2 emissions of transportation.

The pressure on mobility providers and policymakers to meet these mobility and transportation needs is not just high but growing – by 2050 the urban population is expected to exceed 70%. In the face of these rising demands, the transport industry is now seeking solutions that will take existing transport infrastructure to the next level.

Make mobility safer, faster, more convenient – and fun

Digitalization not only plays a key role for mobility providers in their struggle to achieve the reliability, flexibility and availability they need to make rail solutions cost-efficient: It lies at the heart of making the lives of people who travel easier and more enjoyable. Locomotives, trains, components, train automation systems – everything is a valuable source of data.

With Siemens Digital Services, a state-of-the-art system that processes this wealth of transportation data, transport operators analyze trends and monitor the status of machinery and the flow of passengers and goods to offer a smooth mobility experience.

The art of intelligence

Siemens initiated the creation of an art based visualization as an ideal way to make data more tangible as well as create a unique feeling and understanding of how data works.

Spot weaknesses before they're an issue: Decrease downtimes, increase availability and capacity: Siemens Digital Services monitors and analyzes data in real time for prescriptive services and intelligent energy management.

Make the most of your infrastructure: Maximize your throughput with Siemens solutions for automated driving, integrated resource and asset management.

The appeal of comfort and convenience: Connectivity is the key to raise the appeal of rail transport. With Siemens communication solutions, passengers use the Internet, enjoy customized services, get real-time travel information and save time with e-ticketing.

Digital Services - Keep your trains on the move

Siemens draws on rich transport experience and in-depth expertise to add intelligence – to create smart solutions that not just allow mobility providers to react swiftly to any given situation, but to anticipate them.

And, last but not least, digital solutions ensure an enhanced and contemporary travel experience with constant Internet access and customized services.

A modern transport system that doesn’t stream data is inconceivable. Anyone who wants to build the world’s most modern infrastructure needs to envisage, plan and build road, rail and digital capability all as one.
