THE WORLD'S SMARTEST CITIES WHAT IS A SMART CITY? SMART CITIES USE INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION TECHNOLOGIES TO BETTER MANAGE THEIR USE OF RESOURCES. THIS RESULTS IN ENERGY AND COST SAVINGS AND A REDUCED ENVIRONMENTAL FOOTPAINT. THESE CITIES ARE EQUIPPED WITH INTELLIGENT INFRASTRUCTURE, WHICH PROVIDESA CLEAN AND SUSTAINABLE ENVIRONMENT IN ORDER TO GIVE A QUALITY OF LIFE TO ITS CITIZENS AND DRIVE ECONOMIC GROWTH. APPLICATION OF SMART SOLUTIONS ENABLES CITIES TO USE INFORMATION AND TECHNOLOGY TO ACHIEVE CONNECTED AND INTELLIGENT INFRASTRUCTURE. SMART SOLUTIONS WOULD INCLUDE THINGS LIKE: ENEAGY WASTE WATER E-GOVEANANCE UABAN MANAGEMENT MANAGEMENT MANAGEMENT AND CITIZENS MOBILITY SERVICE WATER QUALITY MONITORING.
