智慧·城市,基于国际视野下的思考

Smart City:Thoughts from International Perspectives

智慧城市的兴起,得益于ICT技术的迅猛发展。经过这些年国内外诸多城市的探索和实践,智慧城市已经从最初的营销概念,逐渐发展成为一种支持城市发展的新理念。然而在实际应用中,智慧城市的内涵仍然是不明确的,不同城市和规划都会有自己的理解和阐释。对于目前如火如荼、包罗万象的智慧城市建设,很多人也在反思:城市的形成,从来不仅仅依靠技术。技术只是手段与工具,能为城市发展创造更多的机会和可能。我们需要从更大的视野和维度去认识和理解智慧城市,进一步明确其内涵与意义,探究智慧城市与城市规划、建设、管理之间的关系,并积极寻求利用大数据支撑城市实现智慧发展的新路径。

The growing up of smart city is promoted by the rapid development of ICT.After years of exploration and practice in China and abroad,smart city has gradually developed from a marketing concept to a concept which supports the development of cities.However,the connotation of smart city is still undefined during the actual implementation process.Different cities and plans would have their own understanding and interpretation.Regarding the full swing of smart city construction,a large number of people have the introspection that the formation of the city has never relied on the technology.The technologies could only be regarded as measures and tools which create more opportunities and possibilities for the development of cities.We need to recognize and understand the smart city from a wider view and dimension to clarify its connotation and significance,and explore the relationship among the smart city,urban planning,construction and management.In addition,it is essential to find ways of using big data to support the cities achieving smart development.
