Smart Cities

A smart city is an urban framework that integrates information and communication technology (ICT) and Internet of Things (IoT) solutions to manage a city's assets and improve the quality of life for its citizens. As a key concept within modern urban and regional planning, it applies data-driven approaches to optimize the efficiency of city services and infrastructure, such as transportation, energy grids, water systems, and public safety. The ultimate goal is to create a more sustainable, resilient, and responsive urban environment by using real-time data to inform decision-making, reduce resource consumption, and enhance civic engagement.
