b. Smart City

The rapidly developing information and communication technologies
present “smart city” solutions for livable cities. These solutions involve
adaptive smart city systems that appeal to needs, and equipped with the
latest technology. The concept of smart cities has emerged to represent
the opportunities and challenges that cities face while responding to these
changes as well as the issues caused by urban population growth and rapid
urbanization. (Alshahadeh, 2018: 1). The only way for smart systems to produce
smart solutions is to process the data collected from thousands of sensors
every day and turn it into information with added value for the city residents
and governments.
As the population of the city grows, so do the essential needs such as
energy, water, health, shelter, transportation, communication, and safety.
This requires the development of smart strategies for the efficient use of the
resources that satisfy these needs. Today, it is aimed to solve the issues of the
cities and render them more livable as well as develop “smart city” solutions
to improve the life quality of people.
Thanks to smart cities, it is possible to have
• Participative Management
• A Safe Society
• Clean Environment
• Renewable Energy Use
• Decrease in Traffic Congestion
• Efficient Education and Development Management
• Social Integration
• Efficient Data Analysis
• On Site Waste Sorting
• And Effective Use of Resources
Every citizen have unconsciously applied or used smart city project in their
daily lives. For instance, the elevator systems designed through the electrical
system in your building are smart city applications. Additionally, various
directorates in municipalities implement many projects in line with smart city
projects.
