In collaboration with the DINO project, the “AI in Office & Administration” event on June 19, 2024, focused on specific use cases:
First, Dr. Peter Haller from Urban Analytica presented the startup’s approach to solar cadastre: Urban Analytica’s AI-powered system searches throughout Bavaria (and soon throughout Germany) for building roofs with or without PV systems and calculates the PV potential for each roof using 3D laser building models, orthophotos, weather data, and much more. This enables the creation of comprehensive solar cadastre maps.
His colleague Dr. Johann Eppelsheimer then elaborated on the demand-driven expansion of urban infrastructure: Urban Analytica has developed a methodology to compare the supply and demand for public infrastructure based on data and to identify gaps in supply. A specific example: planning the expansion of car-sharing with Stadtwerk Regensburg. This approach can be applied to other areas, such as the expansion of daycare centers, playgrounds, public transportation, green spaces, and electric vehicle charging stations.
The second presentation, “Startups and the Public Sector,” also included specific use cases, such as a template for responses in a support ticket system or data governance. Speaker Horst Amper also addressed how to navigate the requirements for AI projects in public administration—such as data protection—and offered tips on how startups can raise their profile with public administration agencies.
