Initial situation & challenge

Hockenheim was looking for a solution to efficiently provide up-to-date information, events, and dates in public spaces. The systems had to be suitable for both indoor and outdoor use and meet high standards of weather resistance, security, and continuous operation. In addition, an automated display of meeting and room occupancy in municipal buildings was required.

Wedeko's solution approach

In enger Abstimmung mit der Stadt entwickelte Wedeko ein ganzheitliches Konzept für ein digitales Stadtinformationssystem. Ziel war es, unterschiedliche Informationsbedarfe über eine einheitliche, intuitiv bedienbare Lösung abzudecken. Zum Einsatz kam eine Kombination aus robusten Outdoor Systemen und Displays für den Innenbereich, ergänzt durch eine zentrale Content- und Datenanbindung.

implementation

Several digital information points were implemented as part of the project:

• Two 55" outdoor touchscreen kiosks in central locations with city maps, event information, and tourist content

• ein 75" Touchsystem vor dem Rathaus als zentraler Informationspunkt für Bürgerinformationen und städtische Services

• A special shop window display with fire protection enclosure for optimal visibility in daylight

• zwei 32" Displays vor Sitzungssälen mit Metalleinhausung und automatisierter Datenbankschnittstelle zur Anzeige von Terminen und Raumbelegungen

All systems are designed for permanent use in public spaces and blend in with the cityscape in terms of design.

classification

The project demonstrates how digital information solutions can be implemented in a practical manner in a municipal environment. The combination of robust technology, clear information architecture, and centralized control exemplifies Wedeko's approach to solutions.

Results & Added Value

The new city information system enables consistent, up-to-date, and accessible information transfer. Citizens and visitors benefit from simple operation and clearly structured content, while the city makes internal processes more efficient through automated displays.
