Improve Smart City Operations through the Use of AI and the Internet of Things for Adaptive Management of Urban Infrastructure
The fast pace of urbanization has made smart and sustainable infrastructure management more important than ever. Because of their inherent silos, traditional urban management systems are unable to adapt in real-time to shifting demands in areas such as water distribution, public safety, energy consumption, traffic flow, and energy consumption. This study found that smart cities may use AI and the internet of things to adapt and manage their infrastructure using data. Sensors throughout the city’s infrastructure for transportation, power, buildings, and the environment provide data into Internet of Things devices. Analytics systems powered by AI can automate decision-making, enhance resource allocation, discover anomalies, and forecast demand using massive amounts of data. For predictive maintenance and real-time monitoring, the framework places an emphasis on interoperability, scalability, cybersecurity, and sustainability. By replacing reactive systems with proactive ones, adaptive algorithms and machine learning models can increase dependability, save costs, and revolutionize urban planning. Topics covered in the research include data privacy, infrastructure integration, and data governance. The convergence of AI with the Internet of Things (IoT) creates robust, efficient, citizen-centric urban ecosystems, as shown by comprehensive design and performance evaluation metrics. Smart cities that can adjust to changes in the environment, population, and economy are made possible by these discoveries.
