An urban region that uses technology to provide its citizens with better living and working conditions is referred to as a "smart city." Although the structure of the city is defined differently by various governments or smart city initiatives, themes like sustainability, connectivity, data-driven planning, and smart utility systems are prevalent. As a matter of fact, more than 50% of the world's population resides in cities or other urban areas; this percentage could rise to 70% in the future due to increased urbanization and migration of individuals seeking employment in these locations. However, this implies that in order for cities to maintain a high standard of living while being energy-efficient and environmentally benign, they must have improved infrastructure and planning. Stated differently, cities must transform into smart cities. Combining machine learning, which uses the insights gained from the data, with the Internet of Things, which collects data from sensors, makes this possible. Numerous implementations usually concentrate on one or two aspects of a smart city rather than giving the entire thing a makeover. A city might, for instance, add sensors to monitor air pollution, utility meters driven by the Internet of Things, traffic lights with sensor capabilities, or a robust public transit network. IoT may be used to enhance municipal efficiency in several areas, including traffic management, smart street lights, EV charging ports with IOT connectivity, air quality and pollution monitoring, and waste management.
