The NAR Innovation District has a total of 1.188.585 m2 construction
area, made up of the TDZ, commercial and residential units, public spaces,
education, health, sports and touristic facilities. The locations of all public
spaces in the project area were determined based on accessibility design
standards. The FAR for commerce and tourism is 1.0, and for commerce and
tourism areas it is 1.75. The spatial distribution of public areas consists of 22%
green areas, 12% pedestrian lanes, and about 10% bike lanes (Figure 8).

The TDZ sits on a 10ha land and is designed according to the topography. It
consists of Research and Development buildings, commercial and accommodation
areas. The FAR for the TDZ is 1.5. The ground floors of the area house public
facilities, while the upper floors are reserved for commercial functions.
The project area is designed as an innovation zone where 5G fiber optic,
Lora, etc. infrastructures are tested and applied. As in the smart city model in
Figure 9, the NAR area adopts a smart city management model through the
integration of surveillance utilities and open data sharing. Plans are underway
to collect data through sensors, cameras and smart devices, and provide real
time interventions by administrative units. Blocks are adjacent to each other
with an underground service tunnel system that allows service networks to be
repaired without the need for street excavations. A selective waste collection
network and underground waste management systems are to be installed.
The Turkish Management Sciences Institute (TÜSSİDE) has explored 109
Smart City applications and studied their feasibility for the NAR area. These
