1.2 OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY

A smart city uses information and communication technology


(ICT) to improve operational efficiency, share information with the
public and provide a better quality of government service and citizen
welfare.

The main goal of a smart city is to optimize city functions and promote
economic growth while also improving the quality of life for citizens by
using smart technologies and data analysis. The value lies in how this
technology is used rather than simply how much technology is available.

A city’s smartness is determined using a set of characteristics, including:


 An infrastructure based around technology
 Environmental initiatives
 Effective and highly functional public transportation
 Confident and progressive city plans
 People able to live and work within the city, using its resources

The success of a smart city relies on the relationship between the public
and private sectors as much of the work to create and maintain a data-
driven environment falls outside the local government remit. For example,
smart surveillance cameras may need input and technology from several
companies.

Aside from the technology used by a smart city, there is also the need for
data analysts to assess the information provided by the smart city systems
so that any problems can be addressed and improvements found.

1.3 SCOPE OF THE STUDY

India started the development of these smart city projects


at the global level. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s
vision of ‘Digital India’, has a plan to build atleast 100 smart
cities across India. Which he use to speak in his speeches also
and highlighting that, “Cities in the past were built on
riverbanks but now these cities are built along highways. But
in the future, these cities will be built based on availability of
optical fiber networks and next-generation infrastructure.”

1.4 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

It’s an advance city which is outfitted with high-tech communication


capabilities. It is developed by using digital technology also to enhance the
performance and its well being and to reduce the costs and resources consumption
and to engage more effectively and actively with its citizens. While discussing the
idea of smart cities, it comes into our mind of formulation the need to accommodate
the rapid urbanization of latest technologies. Having the Interest in smart cities

3.1 CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK

Smart City Features

Combining automation, machine learning and the IoT is allowing for the adoption of smart city
technologies for a variety of applications. For example, smart parking can help drivers find a
parking space and also allow for digital payment.

Another example would be smart traffic management to monitor traffic flows and optimize traffic
lights to reduce congestion, while ride-sharing services can also be managed by a smart city
infrastructure.

Smart city features can also include energy conservation and environmental efficiencies, such as
streetlights that dim when the roads are empty. Such smart grid technologies can improve
everything from operations to maintenance and planning to power supplies.

Smart city initiatives can also be used to combat climate change and air pollution as well as waste
management and sanitation via internet-enabled rubbish collection, bins and fleet management
systems.

Aside from services, smart cities allow for the provision of safety measures such as monitoring
areas of high crime or using sensors to enable an early warning for incidents like floods, landslides,
hurricanes or droughts.

Smart buildings can also offer real-time space management or structural health monitoring and
feedback to determine when repairs are necessary. Citizens can also access this system to notify
officials of any problems, such as potholes, while sensors can also monitor infrastructure problems
such as leaks in water pipes.

In addition, smart city technology can improve the efficiency of manufacturing, urban farming,
energy use, and more.

Smart cities can connect all manner of services to provide joined up solutions for citizens.

How Smart Cities Work

Smart cities follow four steps to improve the quality of life and enable economic growth through a
network of connected IoT devices and other technologies. These steps are as follows:

1. Collection – Smart sensors gather real-time data

2. Analysis – The data is analysed to gain insights into the operation of city services and operations

3. Communication – The results of the data analysis are communicated to decision makers

4. Action – Action is taken to improve operations, manage assets and improve the quality of city
life for the residents

Downloaded by Akhil Kesharwani (akhil.redmil@gmail.com)


lOMoARcPSD|20526086

The ICT framework brings together real time data from connected assets, objects and machines to
improve decision making. However, in addition, citizens are able to engage and interact with smart
city ecosystems through mobile devices and connected vehicles and buildings. By pairing devices
with data and the infrastructure of the city, it is possible to cut costs, improve sustainability and
streamline factors such as energy distribution and refuse collection, as well as offering reduced
traffic congestion, and improve air quality.

Why Smart Cities Are Important

54% of the world’s population live in cities and this is expected to rise to 66% by 2050, adding a
further 2.5 billion people to the urban population over the next three decades. With this expected
population growth there comes a need to manage environmental, social and economic
sustainability of resources.

Smart cities allow citizens and local government authorities to work together to launch initiatives
and use smart technologies to manage assets and resources in the growing urban environment.

Why do we need them?

A smart city should provide an urban environment that delivers a high quality of life to residents
while also generating economic growth. This means delivering a suite of joined-up services to
citizens with reduced infrastructure costs.

This becomes increasingly important in the light of the future population growth in urban areas,
where more efficient use of infrastructure and assets will be required. Smart city services and
applications will allow for these improvements which will lead to a higher quality of life for
citizens.

Smart city improvements also provide new value from existing infrastructure while creating new
revenue streams and operational efficiencies to help save money for governments and citizens
alike.

Are Smart Cities Sustainable?

Sustainability is an important aspect of smart cities as they seek to improve efficiencies in urban
areas and improve citizen welfare. Cities offer many environmental advantages, such as smaller
geographical footprints, but they also have some negative impacts, including the use of fossil fuels
to power them. However, smart technologies could help alleviate these negative effects, such as
through the implementation of an electric transport system to reduce emissions. Electric
vehicles could also help to regulate the frequency of the electric grid while not in use.

Such sustainable transport options should also see a reduction in the number of cars in urban areas
as autonomous vehicles are expected to reduce the need for car ownership amongst the population.

Creating such sustainable solutions could deliver environmental and societal benefits.

Smart City Challenges

For all of the benefits offered by smart cities, there are also challenges to overcome. These include
government officials allowing widespread participation from citizens. There is also a need for the

Downloaded by Akhil Kesharwani (akhil.redmil@gmail.com)


lOMoARcPSD|20526086

private and public sectors to align with residents so that everyone can positively contribute to the
community.

Smart city projects need to be transparent and available to citizens via an open data portal or
mobile app. This allows residents to engage with the data and complete personal tasks like paying
bills, finding efficient transportation options and assessing energy consumption in the home.

This all requires a solid and secure system of data collection and storage to prevent hacking or
misuse. Smart city data also needs to be anonymized to prevent privacy issues from arising.

The largest challenge is quite probably that of connectivity, with thousands or even millions of IoT
devices needing to connect and work in unison. This will allow services to be joined up and
ongoing improvements to be made as demand increases.

Technology aside, smart cities also need to account for social factors that provide a cultural fabric
that is attractive to residents and offer a sense of place. This is particularly important for those
cities that are being created from the ground up and need to attract residents.

Are they Secure?

Smart cities offer plenty of benefits to improve citizen safety, such as connected surveillance
systems, intelligent roadways and public safety monitoring, but what about protecting the smart
cities themselves?

There is a need to ensure smart cities are protected from cyber attacks, hacking and data theft while
also making sure the data that is reported is accurate.

In order to manage the security of smart cities there is a need to implement measures such as
physical data vaults, resilient authentication management and ID solutions. Citizens need to trust
the security of smart cities which means government, private sector enterprise, software
developers, device manufacturers, energy providers and network service managers need to work
together to deliver integrated solutions with core security objectives. These core security objectives
can be broken down as follows:

Downloaded by Akhil Kesharwani (akhil.redmil@gmail.com)


lOMoARcPSD|20526086

1. Availability – Data needs to be available in real time with reliable access in order to make
sure it performs its function in monitoring the various parts of the smart city infrastructure
2. Inegrity – The data must not only be readily available, but it must also be accurate. This
also means safeguarding against manipulation from outside
3. Confidentiality – Sensitive data needs to be kept confidential and safe from unauthorised
access. This may mean the use of firewalls or the anonymising of data
4. Accountability – System users need to be accountable for their actions and interaction with
sensitive data systems. Users logs should record who is accessing the information to ensure
accountability should there be any problems

Legislation is already being put in place in different nations, such as the IoT Cybersecurity
Improvement Act in the United States to help determine and establish minimum security
requirements for connected devices in smart cities.

Examples

Cities across the world are in different stages of smart technology development and
implementation. However, there are several who are ahead of the curve, leading the path to
creating fully smart cities. These include:

 Barcelona, Spain
 Columbus, Ohio, USA
 Dubai, United Arab Emirates
 Hong Kong, China
 Kansas City, Missouri, USA
 London, England
 Melbourne, Australia
 New York City, New York, USA
 Reykjavik, Iceland
 San Diego, California, USA
 Singapore
 Tokyo, Japan
 Toronto, Canada
 Vienna, Austria

The city state of Singapore is considered to be one of the front-runners in the race to creating fully
smart cities, with IoT cameras monitoring the cleanliness of public spaces, crowd density and the
movement of registered vehicles. Singapore also has systems to monitor energy use, waste
management and water use in real time. In addition, there is autonomous vehicle testing and a
monitoring system to ensure the health and wellbeing of senior citizens.

Elsewhere, Smart City has introduced smart streetlights, interactive kiosks and over numbers of
blocks of free Wi-Fi. Parking space details, traffic flow measurement and pedestrian hotpots are
also all available to residents via the city's data visualization app.

San Diego, meanwhile, has installed 3,200 smart sensors to optimize traffic flow and parking as
well as enhancing public safety and environmental awareness. Electric vehicles are supported by
solar-to-electric charging stations and connected cameras monitor for traffic problems and crime.

Traffic monitoring systems are also in place in Dubai, which has telemedicine and smart healthcare
solutions as well as smart buildings, utilities, education and tourism options. Barcelona also has
smart transportation systems with bus stops offering free Wi-Fi and USB charging ports, along

3.4 INITIATIVES

SUCCESSFUL SMART CITY INITIATIVES BEGIN WITH SMART INFRASTRUCTURE


Smart city initiatives are transforming municipalities from coast to coast. Using advanced
technology and vast amounts of data, smart city initiatives are designed to enhance the quality
of life in urban areas by radically improving management of city services, resources and
assets.
Smart city initiatives may include:

 Smart traffic management designed to reduce commute times and alleviate congestion.
 Smart parking programs that identify open spaces on a mobile phone app.
 Smart city street lighting that conserves energy by dimming when lights are not needed.
 Smart building technology that reduces energy consumption through closer monitoring of
HVAC, lighting and security systems.
 Smart grid and smart water management programs that deliver energy more effectively and
cost-efficiently.
 Smart waste management technology that lets sanitation crews know when bins need to be
emptied.
 Visual surveillance that helps law enforcement identify and apprehend criminals.
 Wearable police cameras that improve transparency.
 Monitoring of critical infrastructure, climate and real-time conditions throughout the city to
improve public safety, to flag potential issues and to support first responders.

When first implementing smart city initiatives, many municipalities understandably begin
with specific technology that can address pressing problems in specific needs. But to reap the
most benefit from their investment, truly smart cities begin their journey to smart technology
with an overarching plan for developing a unified smart city infrastructure .
What can infrastructure do for smart city initiatives?
When cities implement individual smart technology initiatives without a unifying
infrastructure, the results are less than ideal. Ownership and oversight of various smart city
initiatives is fractured among different departments. Individual technologies may not integrate
easily, preventing the free flow of data throughout city government. Each department will
have its own relationship with solution providers and will likely need to implement its own
infrastructure, creating costly redundancy.
Alternately, when smart cities have the foresight to implement underlying infrastructure
before individual technologies, they can accelerate transformation while saving time, money
and effort. Integration and management of various smart city initiatives is easier, and the data
developed by one smart city program could be fully utilized to benefit others.
The infrastructure required by smart city initiatives typically includes:

lOMoARcPSD|20526086

 Sensors and smart cities IoT devices that collect data from a myriad of sources from smart
traffic,smart energy, smart monitoring and smart building technology.
 A high-performance network that can handle and transmit vast amounts of data.
 A software analytics platform that aggregates data and extracts actionable intelligence.
 User interfaces that present vital information to residents, businesses and city employees.

While no single vendor can provide all the elements of the technology stack for smart city
initiatives, Spectrum Enterprise offers cities a powerful network and access to a vendor
ecosystem that can dramatically simplify management of smart city technology.

4.1 REASEARCH METHODOLOGY

Detailed Project Report – Solid Waste Management System

1. Introduction
Rourkela is the 3rd largest city of Odisha after Bhubaneswar and Cuttack, located
in Sundargarh district with a population of around 4.83 lakh as per the Census of
India, 2011. The city is surrounded by a range of hills and encircled by Koel and
Sankha rivers which meet at Vedvyas, and flow as a single river called Brahmani.
In terms of connectivity, Rourkela is well connected through rail network with
other parts of the country. Also, the city is likely to have air connectivity with
select cities including Bhubaneswar and Kolkata shortly.

Rourkela is one of the 99 smart cities selected under the Smart City Challenge in
September, 2016 by Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs. As mentioned in the
SCP, the city has set its vision as follows:

“Building on its steel foundation, natural setting and cosmopolitan character,


Rourkela - a prominent eastern Indian city located in the heart of tribal belt
renowned for producing ace sporting talent; will be a liveable, inclusive,
sustainable and self- reliant city, propelling the regional economic development
with best in class future proof infrastructure”.

2. Context and Key Issues


With a total of around 69,600 households in the Rourkela Municipal Corporation
(RMC) area, the city of Rourkela generates 120 MT1 per day of solid waste. While
there exists 100% door to door waste collection across 15 wards, the remaining 25
wards on an average have only around 35% door to door collection. Nearly 83% 2
of the total waste generated in these wards is collected at around 315 identified
garbage depots located across the city. Of these garbage depots, only 96 locations
have Bins installed for secondary collection of waste with the remaining depots
witnessing open dumping of waste.

Downloaded by Akhil Kesharwani (akhil.redmil@gmail.com)


lOMoARcPSD|20526086

Currently, there are 19 GPS based waste collection vehicles (comprising 1


compactor, 7 tippers, 6 tractors, 2 JCBs, 2 Dumpers and 1 attacher) deployed for
transportation of solid waste from these depots to the land fill site near BPUT.
Further, there is no provision for treatment of waste in the city. The list of
stakeholders met for assessing the existing conditions of Solid Waste Management
(SWM) process in the city is provided in the Annexure.

The entire SWM value chain, encompassing primary collection of waste from
respective households to the disposal of waste, is managed by Rourkela Municipal
Corporation (RMC). A mapping of the existing value chain across the city is
presented below.

Key issues impeding effective Solid Waste Management in the city include:
 Limited number of compactors resulting in mechanical loading of garbage at
only 50% of the garbage depots with Bins
 Inadequate information related to occupancy of waste in community bins with
Sanitary Inspectors/ Supervisors results in increased incidence of overflowing
of waste
 Absence of any mechanism to monitor lifting of waste by the waste collection
vehicles from the designated bins
 Absence of any tracking of the quantum of waste disposed at the dump yard/
landfill site to enable transparency in vendor payment
 Limited monitoring of the field staff engaged in SWM on a daily basis.
 Absence of construction waste management to segregate construction waste
from the general solid waste

In order to address these issues, the proposed ICT related interventions related
to the Solid Waste Management are detailed in the subsequent sections.

CONCLUSION: -

Creating smart connected systems for our urban areas provides a great many benefits for
citizens around the world, not only to improve quality of life, but also to ensure sustainability and
the best possible use of resources.

These solutions are dependent on a unified approach from government as well as the
private sector and residents themselves. With the correct support and infrastructure, however,
smart cities can use advances such as the Internet of Things to enhance the lives of residents and
create joined-up living solutions for the growing global urban citizenry.

Annexure 1: Copy of questionnaire

Survey on Smart city financial attitude towards the innovation .


A smart city is one that uses a smart system characterized by the interaction between infrastructure,
capital, behaviors and cultures, achieved through their integration. From our survey of the smart city
concept by reading recent papers in this field, we found no uniform concept of the smart city; some
papers discussed it as a general case study, while others dealt with specific parts. This paper is a survey of
a number of articles, which we divided into two categories:1-General case study, which covers the topic
of smart city in a general framework, and 2-Specific case study, which covers the topic of the smart city
from a specific detailed application, such as Traffic Management System, Smart Grid and Wireless
Technology. The results of our research show that the information of communication technology (ICT)
covers all areas on smart cities such as government facilities, buildings, traffic, electricity, health, water,
and transport. Until now there is no unique definition for smart cities, most of researcher define the smart
city form their needs or prospective.
