The Ultimate Guide to Smart Cities
2024 edition
Overview
Today's metropolitan cities rely on technology to function efficiently and effectively. In recent times, technologists have found that data, analytics and AI can play crucial roles in creating better infrastructure. A Smart City refers to a technologically modern urban area that uses a variety of electronic methods and sensors to collect specific data.
A smart city's objective is to increase operational efficiency and provide better living conditions for citizens in the long run. The more informed a city is, the better prepared and organised it is, and this often leads to positive technological breakthroughs.
