Smart cities leverage technology to improve efficiency, safety, and ease of navigation. The increasing population puts pressure on traditional service delivery, presenting a significant challenge to the sustainable development of cities.
Building a smart city starts with enhancing existing infrastructure. Urban planners typically concentrate on improving mobility and transportation, addressing traffic congestion, fostering business growth, and promoting energy efficiency. Managing physical resources such as energy and water, and addressing healthcare, traffic, and city logistics are essential challenges for ensuring sustainable growth. 'Smart city' standards provide city leaders with innovative tools and opportunities to make effective changes in response to these challenges.
