3. Overpopulation • World Net Population growth of 67,000 persons per day Today’s City Challenges Transport Waste Management Energy Governance Healthcare Water Management • Inefficient Transport Systems deplete the environment • Lack of citizen participation in Government due to inadequate information sharing • Lack of constant electricity in developing countries • Buildings and environment are not well managed • Water resources not efficiently managed • Inequality of access to adequate healthcare • Overcrowding due to need to live close to amenities and places of employment Typical Problems
4. The city of the future will solve the challenges facing the city of today How? Social Equality Sustainability & Green Resources Hi-Tech • Provide better transport systems thereby reducing need for private cars and subsequently reducing CO 2 emissions • Educated citizens who will participate in open governance • Better environmental regulations and planning policies • Better design and architectural structures • Better accessibility to healthcare and general poverty eradication • Energy conservation and use of technology to manage resources • Sensors in most places to gather data and enable data- driven society
5. Intelligent Transport Systems Multifaceted, efficient, safe and comfortable transport system, which is linked to ICT infrastructure and open data Multi-modal transportation Real Time Traffic Information Citizens are empowered with information and tools to determine for themselves the best way to move from origin to destination, throughout all modes of transportation, with due consideration to cost, time, convenience and environmental impact Reduced Environmental Impact Electric Vehicles More efficient vehicles, advanced road, rail, sea and air traffic management systems will increase throughput, reduce greenhouse gas emissions and environmental impact Safety and Security
6. E-Waste Management The most effective way to manage waste is to prevent it Recycling Data-Driven waste collection Waste management is important to eliminate pollution and disease spread
7. Smart Grid Use of smart grids for homes and workplaces will be fundamental Energy Efficient Buildings Smart Meters Solar energy will play a large role in energy production. Vehicles, residential, commercial, industrial and school buildings will be powered with solar technology Renewable Energy The use of renewable energy will eradicate Global warming emissions. Subsequently leading to improved public health and environmental quality Solar Power Generation
8. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Smart Pipes and Sensor Networks Intelligent Water Management Sensors will be used to improve inspection strategies and seamless management of water resources Electric Vehicles SCADA systems will improve monitoring and control water treatment and distribution as well as wastewater collection and treatment
9. Transparency Governance powered by Information gathering, dialogue enablement, decision making and assessment, while storing data for ongoing queries, monitoring, evaluation and reporting Citizen Engagement Electronic Voting Government officials will engage and drive participatory conversations with citizens. Citizens’ feedback and participation will be used by government for informed decision making Social Media Monitoring
10. The city of the future will provide high quality of life regardless of their social status Social Equality Sustainability & Green Resources Hi-Tech Highly Livable Future City
