What are the characteristics of municipal management in smart cities?

With the increase of urban population and the gradual expansion of urban scale, a series of urban problems have also emerged: increasingly congested traffic, inefficient urban management methods, fewer and fewer resources, and difficulty in urban management. Effective urban emergency systems, environmental monitoring systems that are far from perfect, etc. When cities face these challenges, new measures must be applied to deal with them. The construction of new smart cities is an inevitable product of human development from traditional agricultural society to industrial society and then to post-industrial society. It provides a new model for future urban development.

1. The connotation of the new smart city

The goal of the "new smart city" is to build the city's smart infrastructure, which requires promoting the construction of physical infrastructure and information infrastructure. Integration mainly requires making full use of the new generation of information and communication technology in all areas of urban economic and social life, maximizing the development, integration and utilization of existing urban information resources, and providing timely and effective services to citizens, enterprises and society, thereby affecting people's livelihood, Make intelligent responses to various needs, including environmental protection, public safety, urban services, and industrial and commercial activities, to create a better urban life for mankind. This can improve urban operation and management capabilities, government administrative service levels, and improve residents' lives. quality, enhance the city’s comprehensive competitiveness and brand influence. Through intelligent sensing, analysis, integration and processing, all aspects of the city can be optimized in a more mobile and flexible way, making the city "smart".

The new smart city is based on the perspective of informatization and attention to human value, comprehensive urban development planning, urban operation management, urban economic and social development, and dynamically integrating urban information data resources through the Internet of Things and cloud computing platforms. , connect physical cities and virtual cities, build a framework that combines smart infrastructure, smart resource management, smart industries and smart operation services, build a complete information infrastructure, rich information data resources, a highly developed information industry and strong public awareness excellent urban form.

2. The importance of building new smart cities

1. New smart cities are an inevitable trend in urban development

According to the United Nations Human Settlements Program’s 2008/2009 World "State of Cities: Harmonious Cities" report: Cities already carry 50% of the world's population... By 2050, the global urbanization rate will reach 70%. In 2011, China's urbanization level reached 50%, and by 2050, it will exceed 70%. The city enjoys both glory and criticism. The traditional "extensive" and "extensive" urban development models are increasingly showing their shortcomings. New smart cities use virtual networks to guide physical networks, reduce urban energy consumption, improve urban resource allocation effects, reduce urban pressure, and optimize urban living environments to transform cities from "extensive" and "extensive" to "intensive" and "connotative" "Model change has brought huge development dividends to the city and is an optimized urbanization path.

2. New smart cities will give birth to new “smart industries”

The construction of new smart cities cannot be separated from the support of the Internet of Things and cloud computing technology. The construction of the Internet of Things will drive the development of service industries such as sensors and data collection and sensing, information storage and processing. The independent market research institute in the United States has predicted that the industrial value brought by the Internet of Things will be much greater than that of the Internet, and a high-tech market with a scale of over 100 million yuan will be formed. According to the industry database, China's RFID industry market size reached 6.58 billion yuan in 2008, 10.777 billion yuan in 2009, and increased significantly in 2010. According to predictions, by around 2035, China's sensor network terminals will reach thousands billion. In this way, this industry has been greatly developed, thereby promoting the process of new smart cities.

3. New smart cities can achieve win-win results in urban management and operations

The construction of new smart cities can optimize urban management and reduce urban operating costs. The "Internet of Things + Internet" model can respond to urban management and social public security in a timely and accurate manner; smart services go deep into food, medical care, education, transportation and other fields, making public services a close companion. Smart government will place more emphasis on humanized services and realize the transformation of urban management from "subject-centered" to "object-centered". The new smart city makes information a new resource for urban operations, allowing the city government to make three major leaps from management to service, from governance to operation, and from fragmented local applications to collaborative and integrated platform services.

By integrating advanced information technology and advanced management concepts, new smart cities are highly likely to achieve a win-win situation for urban management, urban services, and urban operations.

3. How to grasp the construction of new smart cities

The construction of "new smart cities" must grasp three major aspects, namely infrastructure, application innovation, and industrial development.

1. Building new smart city infrastructure

Building smart city infrastructure has two meanings. First, urban information infrastructure such as networks must be smart. For example: building a wireless city, promoting the integration of three networks, and building a cloud computing center to make urban information infrastructure as convenient and fast as using water and electricity to meet people's "on-demand" needs. Second, urban roads and municipal facilities such as street lights, water supply and drainage pipe networks, and gas pipe networks need wisdom. The road can decide whether to automatically start the sprinkler device based on the dryness, and the gas pipeline can detect parameters such as pressure resistance. When an abnormality occurs, it will automatically shut down and notify maintenance to prevent bursting. In fact, urban information infrastructure should be included in urban planning and construction as part of urban infrastructure.

2. Innovative applications of "new smart cities"

Use the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, information transmission and storage and other technologies to integrate automatic intelligence, e-government, and social informatization Carry out innovative applications in three major areas.

In the process of automatic and intelligent integration, the goal is to improve the automation and intelligence of industrial production and carry out the promotion of industrial Internet of Things applications. Apply Internet of Things technology to areas such as production process control, production equipment monitoring, product quality traceability, enterprise energy conservation and emission reduction, and safety production. Through networked monitoring of feeding equipment, production equipment, packaging equipment, etc., industrial automation and intelligence can be realized, improving To improve enterprise production efficiency and reduce costs, artificial intelligence technologies such as wireless networks, sensors, and intelligent industrial robots should be vigorously promoted in industrial enterprises and applied to the construction of enterprise information service platforms.

We must embody wisdom when building e-government, strengthen e-government information sharing and business collaboration in disaster prevention and reduction, food safety and other fields, and strengthen e-government information sharing and business collaboration in emergency management, public security, and security. IoT technology is applied in security and other fields. Apply cloud computing technology to the construction of government data centers as a computing platform for carrying large-scale e-government information systems. Develop the government knowledge management system and improve the professional level and overall quality of civil servants. Develop smart government affairs systems to improve leaders’ decision-making capabilities and promote scientific government decision-making.

In the field of social informatization, develop intelligent health service systems and remote care systems based on electronic medical records. Promote e-schools, virtual classrooms, etc. to promote the sharing of high-quality digital education resources and improve the education public service system. Develop smart homes, smart home systems and smart communities. Establish a highly open information platform to achieve full sharing of information resources.

3. Develop "new smart city" related industries

Practice has proven that the level of informatization development is positively correlated with the degree of development of the information industry. That is, the more developed the information industry in a place, the higher the level of informatization development in that place. New generation information technology industries such as the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, and cloud computing are important foundations for building "new smart cities." To build a "new smart city", we must attach great importance to the development of a new generation of information technology industry. Make the two form a positive interaction.

The construction of new smart cities will inevitably change the way of life and production of urban people, help cope with urban diseases and ensure the sustainable development of cities. The construction of new smart cities requires technological and financial innovation, unified standards and complete regulations, as well as government guidance and market leadership. However, in the development of new smart cities, we must avoid rushing in, rushing for quick results, and hyping concepts. In particular, we must prevent using new smart cities as a basket and stuffing irrelevant things into it. We hope that the construction of our new smart cities can be healthy and sustainable. Continuous development. We believe that through the smart development of cities, we will surely usher in a happy city, a new smart city, a green city and a harmonious city.
