Where We Are Today

4 We are early in our overall product development cycle. This work reflects the most current perspective from our team. We will continue to refine as we learn from customers and initiate pilots. Throughout our development process, we will be committed to the responsible use of data, such as privacy by design principles, even as we consult on a broader data governance policy for Quayside, such as
  • ur proposal for an independent Civic Data Trust.
The ideas we are describing will use published standards. We will be engaging partners with whom we hope to develop and deploy these ideas and ecosystems.

Quick Aside: Ownership

The first two sections address fiber infrastructure and network topology. We plan to work with existing providers to introduce these new technologies and build on the work done to date by Waterfront Toronto. 10 As with all digital infrastructure, residents and businesses would not be required to use these solutions.

SLIDE 11 Fiber Router Deploying fiber, connections inside buildings, provisioning residential or business internet connections, and dealing with home routers is very expensive, and often insecure. The technologies proposed hope to alleviate some of these problems. Home Routers Security Risks

SLIDE 13

What Why How

Neighbourhood-Scale Software-Defined Network

  • ISPs provide firewalls, which provide
imperfect security, while making it very difficult for subscribers to access devices in their homes and
  • ffice when they’re not there.
  • Subscribers are currently required
to manage their own Wi-Fi equipment, which is technically challenging, results in vulnerabilities, and often results in interference between apartments.
  • Internet of Things devices are hard to
deploy, and are often insecure.
  • Software-Defined Networks allow much
more sophisticated, customized routing – for example, a private network for each subscriber including their home, school and office, regardless of their location.
  • Will integrate with and support emerging
5G networks, as well as managed Wi-Fi access points to create seamless access with minimal interference.
  • Internet of Things devices can be
quarantined if they start exhibiting unusual behavior – trying to communicate with unknown internet endpoints, transmitting significantly more data than expected.
  • Managed Wi-Fi significantly improves
performance without requiring subscribers to be part-time network engineers. ○ Optimizing Wi-Fi systems with the layout
  • f the city and buildings in mind can be
done efficiently at scale. 13

Super Passive Optical Network

slide-16
SLIDE 16

What Why How

Super Passive Optical Network (Super-PON)

  • Fiber infrastructure often carries
a small number of wavelengths, leading to underutilization of physical infrastructure
  • Upgrading the network requires new
equipment at multiple points throughout the physical network increasing costs and making upgrades difficult.
  • Many more wavelengths sharing a
fiber, one wavelength per building
  • Passive optical splitters at
intermediate points
  • Each building detects its
wavelength only ○ Upgrades only require new equipment at endpoints, not at intermediate points in the network
  • New Super-PON approach, currently
under consideration by IEEE 802.3 standards committee
  • We plan to work with existing, local
companies with experience in fiber deployment and service delivery. ○ We would provide specifications and technical expertise in this new approach 16

Buildings — Proposing New Specifications for This Tech

18 Points of Entry Multiple point-of- entry locations Conduits Incoming conduits meet a set of specifications (e.g. buried depth, distance from water and sewer lines, coating materials, etc) Meet-Me Room A single location in the building where all telco-related equipment is installed with backup power and spare capacity. Typical in commercial buildings, but less common in residential. Risers A vertical riser, dedicated to telecommunications wiring, accessible on each floor and designed for increased capacity Cabling Cat 6A wiring (or better) to every room for Power Over Ethernet wireless access points.

What

To be clear, the Koala™ is simply a mount and connector, not a device that collects urban data.

Why How

Koala™: Standard Outdoor Mounts w/ Power & Connectivity

20
  • Mounting, maintaining, & upgrading
signals and sensors is expensive, disruptive and time consuming ○ Avg cost per intersection for Adaptive Signal Control: $20k-30k
  • This leads to slow adoption cycles
for new technology
  • Example devices:
○ Lights ○ Wi-Fi access points ○ 5G cell base stations ○ Temperature, wind speed, humidity, rainfall sensors ○ Lidar, radar, other sensors collecting non-personal data
  • Flexible, standardized infrastructure
that can host many types of street digital infrastructure
  • Similar in spirit to USB, but suitable
for the demands of the public realm
  • n street poles
  • Current prototype (subject to change):
○ Hermetically sealed package ○ 200 Watts ○ 6 gigabits per second of data through short-range wireless or wired connection, ○ Mechanical mount that is installable and removable by ground-based operators with special poles (and in the future, possibly by drone)

Koala™ – General Requirements

24

01

Mechanical Security & Ease
  • f Installation / Removal
Infrastructure should be easy to install and maintain: able to be mounted or swapped out within minutes by human operators without large equipment or street closures. It should also be robust to wind, dust, precipitation, temperature variations and other challenges
  • f the urban environment.

02

Power Client devices inevitably need
  • power. Some devices, like
displays and lighting, may require more than 100 watts
  • f wired power.
Other devices, like air quality sensors, could possibly be powered through solar panels.

03

Connectivity Most client devices will need to send and receive data. In locations like Quayside with high-quality, reliable wireless connectivity, most devices might not need hard-wired data connections. If this system used for 5G antennas, a wired connection will be required. 24

SLIDE 25

What Else Does Koala™ Provide?

25

01

Security Physical device authentication and data encryption

02

Civic Data Trust Control Ability for Civic Data Trust to turn off network or power for devices out of compliance with Civic Data Trust requirements.

03

Ecosystem Development Standardization and reduction
  • f cost and disruption
creates the conditions for a thriving ecosystem of urban technology creators, such as startups, researchers, or established companies. 25
slide-26
SLIDE 26 Koala™ will be a standard, similar to USB

Using Koala™ Will Not Be a Requirement

26 Devices will not be required to use Koala™, but we hope that the cost reduction and ease of use make them an attractive option 26 26 Device adoption will determine the standard’s success
slide-27
SLIDE 27
  • Make it easier and cheaper to deploy, maintain and upgrade devices that are required to meet quality of life goals.
  • Create a higher-performance optical network with lower cost and greater upgradeability.
  • Reduce the burden of wired and wireless network management for end users, and largely eliminate interference
between adjacent spaces.
  • Provide a seamless network across the neighbourhood with secure private networks for each person.
  • Work with existing providers to introduce these new technologies and build on the work done to date
by Waterfront Toronto.

slide-32
SLIDE 32 The following slides will discuss data collected by a storm water management system to help prevent flooding. All the data collected for stormwater management is non-personal information (e.g., information on water levels, weather, etc). Because data is being collected, Opti will adhere to the following privacy by design principles and an RDIA process:
  • Opti will publish an RDIA for any data collection for water management.
  • As the data is non-personal, this could be a case of self-certification as envisioned in Opti’s proposal for a Civic Data Trust.
  • Opti will make data collected in the public realm (non-personal / de-identified) publicly accessible.
