Smart-city technologies can help urban planners make informed decisions about how to improve services and infrastructure, reduce costs, and improve the overall quality of life for citizens. City planners can gain insights into numerous areas of the city and improve services by analyzing data from a variety of sources, including sensors, social media, and citizen comments. Cities need to invest in these technologies to ensure sustainable and efficient development. The call for ideas invites academics and practitioners to submit proposals for smart city data analysis and applications.
