Urban Planning for Smart Cities - Presented by Amber Watts
Amber Watts is a System Engineer at UNCIO Engineering, with over 7 years of experience in systems engineering, primarily in requirements and configuration management, systems integration, and safety certification. Based in Los Angeles, she supports large rail infrastructure construction projects in the LA metro area, Central Valley, and San Francisco Bay Area. She works with systems and civil engineers and architects to manage project scope and requirements. Amber has varying levels of experience in asset and procurement management, change and risk management, and database management. Amber holds a BS in Urban and Regional Studies & Planning and a Community Engagement Certification both from Virginia Commonwealth University.
Amber, in collaboration with Jim Hubbell for the INCOSE Smart Cities Initiative, has developed a presentation to introduce the merging of urban planning and systems engineering practices in the development of Smart Cities. The Smart Cities Initiative is currently using urban planning and model-based systems engineering (MBSE) strategies to perform analyses and develop solutions for various interest groups and municipal organizations as a way to assist future projects, programs, and initiatives around the world. During the presentation, Amber will discuss how urban planners approach municipal planning, explain terminology, and provide a framework for how systems engineers can best collaborate with urban planners to support urban improvements. This discussion will use a case study from a planned community in Seattle, where urban planning practices and active participation from city and neighborhood residents have created a vibrant and productive development with affordable housing.
