Smart city simply means the use of information technology(IT) at the city level, which was first applied to the desk in 1980s and then expanded to the office or the home and the building in that order. Smart city enables citizen to make the right decision and act like an expert by moving intelligence from human to city structure. Smart city has four characteristics; self-orarnizing city, generative city, citizen-centric city, and realtime city. In order to succeed in building smart city, emphasis should be put on the city platform. Without a city-wide platform, it is impossible to combine data from different sources and to create smart services. This slide explains what is smart city, how to start smart city, and what benefits smart city will accompany.

Driving is not a matter of human capabilities any more.
Rather it depends on what kind of smart devices you use.

Key Characteristics of Smart City
Self-organising City
• smart city is able to increase order
or solve problems without
centralised designs
• ex. traffic optimisation, smart grid
Generative City
• able to create new services or
functions from existing resources
• ex. derivative data, LBS
Realtime City
• monitor in realtime or advance and
reduce uncertainty significantly
• ex. distaster prevention
Citizen-centric City
• citizen can access to city data, make
the right decision, and provide
public services
• ex. weather service, smart grid
