What makes WaiPoint truly innovative is its ability to analyse and recommend the optimal combination of transport methods based on real-time conditions. Rather than defaulting to car-centric solutions, the app intelligently evaluates multiple travel options to suggest the most efficient journey, whether that means taking a bus to avoid congestion, combining a ferry with a short walk, or cycling along a traffic-free route.
By considering the entire transportation ecosystem, WaiPoint empowers users to make smarter mobility choices that save time, reduce stress, and decrease traffic congestion across Malta. This holistic approach to navigation transforms how people move through their day—turning fragmented transportation options into a cohesive, efficient network at your fingertips.
2. Traffic Insights: Data-Driven Decisions for Better Planning
For Local Councils, City Planners, Government Agencies, and Transport Authorities
Understanding traffic patterns is key to better urban planning by local councils and city planners, and Traffic Insights provides the tools to make it happen. By aggregating data from traffic cameras, GPS systems, and sensors, this platform offers real-time and historical analytics.
Authorities can use Traffic Insights to identify congestion hotspots, assess the effectiveness of current infrastructure, and plan future developments. For example, a local council could analyse rush-hour patterns to determine the best location for a new bus lane or pedestrian bridge. By turning raw data into actionable insights, Traffic Insights helps create cities that move more efficiently.
3. Traffic Flow: Test Before You Implement
For City Planners and Transport Authorities
City-wide traffic experiments can be disruptive, but what if you could test strategies in a risk-free environment? Traffic Flow is an advanced simulation platform that allows authorities to model and optimise traffic management plans before implementing them.
Imagine simulating the effects of a new roundabout or road closure on a virtual version of your city. Planners can tweak variables, test scenarios, and predict outcomes, all without inconveniencing drivers. This proactive approach minimises costly errors and ensures smoother transitions when changes are rolled out in real life.
4. Dynamic Traffic Signage Control: Real-Time Road Updates
For Commuters and Transport Authorities
Outdated road signs can’t keep up with modern traffic demands. Our Dynamic Traffic Signage Control system leverages real-time data to display updates that reflect current conditions. Whether it’s rerouting traffic during an accident or adjusting speed limits in response to weather changes, the system ensures that drivers receive accurate, timely information.
For commuters, this means safer, more predictable journeys. For transport authorities, it’s a powerful tool to optimise traffic flow and reduce congestion without the need for manual intervention.
5. Incident Detection and Response: Immediate Action When It Counts
For Emergency Services and Public Safety Officials
Accidents, fallen trees, or blocked roads can paralyse a city. Our Incident Detection and Response system uses AI-powered public camera networks to identify issues the moment they occur. By recognising incidents in real time, authorities can dispatch resources faster and minimise disruptions.
For example, if a car accident blocks a major intersection, the system can immediately alert traffic controllers and emergency services, enabling quicker response times. It’s about reducing downtime and keeping cities moving, no matter what.
6. Emergency Response Coordination: Optimized for Speed
For Emergency Services
In emergencies, every second counts. Our Emergency Response Coordination system integrates real-time analytics with intelligent resource allocation. By connecting dispatch centres, ambulances, and first responders through a unified platform, it reduces response times and enhances collaboration.
This system ensures that resources are sent where they’re needed most, whether it’s rerouting ambulances during heavy traffic or deploying additional personnel during large-scale incidents. The result? Lives saved and a more resilient community.
7. Ferry Monitor: Efficient Commutes Over Water
For Ferry Operators and Passengers
Daily ferry commutes shouldn’t feel like a gamble. Ferry Monitor uses AI-powered cameras to monitor terminal capacities and predict wait times. Passengers can plan their trips more effectively, reducing stress and avoiding unnecessary delays.
For operators, the system provides valuable insights into passenger flow and passenger count, helping optimise schedules and prevent overcrowding. Smooth sailing for everyone, both on land and at sea.
8. Environmental Inspection: Building Responsibly
For Environmental Agencies and Construction Companies
Construction sites often bring noise, dust, and regulatory challenges to neighbourhoods. Our Environmental Inspection tool monitors these sites using AI to detect violations in real time. Whether it’s tracking noise levels or ensuring dust control measures are in place, the system helps protect communities while enabling responsible urban growth.
9. Litter Watch: Cleaner Streets for All
For Municipal Services and Communities
Nobody likes irresponsible dumping of litter around bring-in sites, and with Litter Watch, you won’t have to. This system uses smart surveillance to detect and report littering around bring-in and waste collection sites in real time. For municipalities, it’s like having an always-on cleanup crew. For residents, it means cleaner, more welcoming public spaces.
10. RoadCare Tracker: Proactive Maintenance
For Infrastructure Agencies
Potholes and damaged roads are more than just nuisances—they’re safety hazards. RoadCare Tracker uses AI to monitor road conditions, flagging issues before they escalate. This proactive approach ensures repairs are made quickly, extending the life of road infrastructure and keeping drivers safe.
11. PPE Compliance Monitor: Safety on Construction Sites
For Construction Companies and Workers
Construction sites demand strict safety compliance. The PPE Compliance Monitor uses AI to ensure workers wear required protective gear.
It automates checks, detecting missing PPE like helmets or vests and alerting supervisors instantly. Integrated site monitoring also tracks equipment use, traffic impact, and danger zones, optimising efficiency while reducing risks.
By minimising human error and enhancing real-time decision-making, the system improves safety, ensures compliance, and keeps projects on schedule.
12. Nurse LUCIE: Enhanced Elderly Care
