Smart Cities refer to urban areas that leverage digital technology and data-driven solutions to enhance the quality of life for residents, improve infrastructure, and promote sustainable practices. These cities utilize connected devices, sensors, and the Internet of Things (IoT) to collect and analyze data in real time. This information helps in optimizing transportation systems, managing energy usage, improving public safety, and facilitating efficient waste management. Smart Cities aim to increase the efficiency of urban services and to foster a more engaged and participatory relationship between citizens and their local governments. The overarching goal is to create environments that are more livable, resilient, and capable of addressing the challenges associated with urbanization and population growth.
