I was curious about the emerging trends in urban planning.
I found this interesting article about how urban planners must adopt new trends to create sustainable, livable environments.
Exploring the Future of Urban Planning: Key Emerging Trends Shaping Tomorrow’s Cities
It was interesting to learn about Smart cities – they utilize technology to improve the efficiency of the city – from sustainability to livability of urban areas. These smart cities use Internet of Things (IoT), big data, and other technologies to improve resource management – it also can improve the overall quality of life.
Smart cities require significant investment and a handful of various stakeholders. Barcelona and Singapore have done this very successfully through things like smart parking solutions and real-time public transit information systems.
it is interesting to think about how much technology can influence the design of the work around us – even the development and re-development of cities and towns.
