Title The Smart City: Analysis of Application Areas and Their Potential in an International Context
Year 2021
Published
Abstract With the continuous growth of the world's population, increased pollution levels, global warming, resource scarcity, lack of physical and social infrastructure, hyper-urbanization as well as changes driven by the fast-advancing technology sector, there is a need for fresh input to the strategic development of cities. In the battle for cost-effectiveness and ensuring environmental stability, it is of utmost importance that cities alter their strategies and approaches to achieve higher efficiency in all domains. This study includes the identification of a smart city's application areas and will investigate whether they work in practice in a cross-country comparison of smart cities. A best practice framework that includes successful smart city application areas and their potential including a holistic strategy is provided based on a solid literature foundation and validated by empirical research. The findings of this research suggest that a holistic strategic approach of a smart city's application areas contributes to achieving its maximum potential through a government that not only makes data publicly available, but also sets the right framework for modern business models, and thinks comprehensively to deploy resources where they are most needed.
