\"making<\/a><\/p>\n

As urban centers are a hub for technological development and revenue growth,\u00a0 more and more people are migrating<\/a><\/u> every year from rural regions to seek better education, job opportunities, health facilities, and an advanced lifestyle. Hence, to adequately fit the growing population into cities, along with providing a fulfilling lifestyle, the government wishes to make cities \u2018smarter\u2019 with the help of technology. However, making cities smarter is not the best way out for providing citizens with a quality life. The government should aim at making smart cities sustainable, which means cities that can readily accept any socio-economic changes.<\/p>\n

A guide for making smart cities sustainable<\/strong><\/h1>\n

Smart waste management, green environment, good governance, enhanced security, and better healthcare are few glimpses of a sustainable smart city. However, making cities sustainable is not easy as each city is different and requires a unique approach to become innovative. Hence, shared below are few measures that the government can take to make cities both, smart and sustainable.<\/p>\n

1.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong>Encourage citizens for active participation<\/strong><\/h1>\n

The first step towards making cities sustainable is to encourage citizens for active participation. As citizens are deemed to be nation\u2019s strength, the government must know citizen opinions and demands. With the rise of the smartphones and various other digital media platforms, people can raise their voice, stating their needs and views to make their city better, all by themselves. The government should set strict laws around crime ratio, waste management, green environment, and so on and so forth, making sure they are followed religiously.<\/p>\n

2.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong>Expand IT expertise <\/strong><\/h1>\n

With sensors embedded in almost every device, product, and \u2018thing\u2019 around us, analysts and IT professionals collect real-time troves of data. But, data that gets collected needs the assistance of IT experts who can draw informative, productive, and actionable insights by leveraging data analytics, AI, and ML technologies.\u00a0 With the help of a team of experts, the government can identify the appropriate use of sensors for products and devices that can participate in the betterment of cities.<\/p>\n

3.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong>Arrange for enough funds<\/strong><\/h1>\n

The global spending on smart city projects worldwide<\/a><\/u> reached 14.85 billion U.S dollars in 2015. The government has to make huge investments in smart, sustainable cities<\/a><\/u>. By encouraging citizens who have the potential to invest in \u2018smart\u2019 city projects, the government can gather handsome funds. Another way to arrange for funds is via \u2018crowdsourcing.\u2019 By using social media platforms, the government can attract people to invest in projects that make their city smart and sustainable.<\/p>\n

Along with the list mentioned above, smart surveillance that involves advanced technologies like \u2018cryptography\u2019 should also be leveraged to safeguard data that is gathered from sensors, actuators, and cameras. In a nutshell, the key to making smart cities sustainable lies in making the cities self-sufficient to provide a growing population with the best of amenities and services.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
