innovations are almost an obligation in accordance to deal with urban systems and
Information and Communication Technology (ICT) together. Public services have
increased significantly recently by local authorities which are integrated information
and communication technologies into all areas of life. It is also an important proof that
there has been a change in the axis of methods applied to urban systems. The technology-
oriented investments have varied in urban areas and cities are an application area for new
technologies while the urban infrastructures are considered after the 2000s. From this point
of view, the aim of this study is to reveal how smart city applications and technological
innovations affect the urban planning process that developed in the context of sustainability.
The smart city concept, the Society 5.0 concept and opportunities provided by the use of
ICT applications for sustainable urban development are focused on within the framework.
As a result of study, it has been revealed that the smart city approach does not only have an
understanding that blindly defends the idea of the creation of an intelligent city, but also
this approach is a development process by human capital.
