The "Civil IoT Taiwan" project is developed to address the four urgent needs of the public to integrate and close to the public services related to people's livelihood, including air quality, earthquake, water resources, disaster prevention, and other issues. The project is part of the "Forward-looking Infrastructure Development Program" project in the "Digital Technology" section. It is a large-scale inter-ministerial government project involving the Ministry of Science and Technology, the Ministry of Communications, the Ministry of Economic Affairs, the Ministry of the Interior, the Environmental Protection Agency, the Academia Sinica, and the Council of Agriculture. Moreover, it applies big data, artificial intelligence, and Internet of things technologies to build various intelligent life service systems to help the government and the public face the challenges brought about by environmental changes. At the same time, it also considers the experience of different end-users, including government decision-making units, academia, industry, and the general public. The goal is to enhance intelligent governance, assist the development of industry/academia, and improve people's happiness.
To maintain the excellent basis for the development of the Civil IoT Taiwan project and its data platform and to continue to take root and cultivate more diverse user groups to step into the various application areas of the Civil IoT Taiwan project, there are three goals of this project: 1) Rooted downward, providing step-by-step self-study learning materials for college and high school students, and conducting cross-domain learning across the fields of information, geography, earth science, and humanities and society; 2) Demonstration application, aiming at the existing applications of Civil IoT Taiwan, in the way of stripping the cocoon, lowering the entry threshold and guiding more profound innovation of production system; 3) Horizontal expansion, providing additional data access methods, using the popular Python language, redeveloping the data access suite, drawing on more diverse technical energy, and enriching the user group of the data platform.
