cities . Why?
Smart cities affect everyone, whether
directly or indirectly. People who live in smart cities or who are visiting
smart cities have the immediate benefit of being connected to the governing
body for information and services. The quality of their lives can be improved
with better traffic management, waste removal, snow removal, and more. Those
who don't live or visit a smart city are affected simply because of the lack of
connected services and communication available to them.
