Long description:
Become empowered to build and maintain smarter cities

At its core, a smart city is a collection of technological responses to the growing demands, challenges, and complexities of improving the quality of life for billions of people now living in urban centers across the world.

The movement to create smarter cities is still in its infancy, but ambitious and creative projects in all types of cities--big and small--around the globe are beginning to make a big difference. New ideas, powered by technology, are positively changing how we move humans and products from one place to another; create and distribute energy; manage waste; combat the climate crisis; build more energy efficient buildings; and improve basic city services through digitalization and the smart use of data.

Inside this book you'll find out:
* What it really means to create smarter cities
* How our urban environments are being transformed
* Big ideas for improving the quality of life for communities
* Guidance on how to create a smart city strategy
* The essential role of data in building better cities
* The major new technologies ready to make a difference in every community
