Smart Cities will see success and quicker adoption if consistent attempts are made to incorporate technology into all facets of public life with emphasis on creating a sustainable environment. The availability of real-time data would greatly speed up the process. Healthcare, public sector, infrastructure, and transportation are all expected to be revolutionized, with an equal emphasis on security systems.
Smart city projects become more viable as inconvenient costs decline. The government is increasing its spending on public security infrastructure, which is expected to gain even more attention in the aftermath of the pandemic.
In 2021 and beyond, we will need to keep an eye on 5G as one of the biggest concepts to watch.
As the first step of infrastructure installation comes to a close, cities will turn to Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to accelerate their digital transformation. These will make operations run more smoothly, quickly, and efficiently and produce reliable, error-free performance.
Data integration and homogeneity would be enabled by the interoperability of disparate systems. The foundation of smart city development and sustainability will be data science and analytics. Data analytics will be critical in smart cities for digital transformation in order to build a clean, stable, and seamless environment for civilians. It will significantly affect Smart Cities due to enhanced security, better connectivity, and processing speed.
As 5G rollout begins, the true vision of connected smart cities will begin to take shape. Blockchain technology has largely become democratized, and industry players are working to integrate it into everyday activities like transportation, financial services, defense, and real estate, among others.
