Abstract:

Artificial intelligence for Smart cities and regions (T2.a) can be used for finding the solution of different situations in cities and regions. Smart City Management uses a variety of sensors, starting with physical detectors, cameras, and ending with space imaging (weather prediction, city temperature maps, and emission maps).

For the complete knowledge of the city, of course, data and information from different areas, such as transport, environment, energy, etc., must be integrated. Only in that case we can speak about a smart city.

Urban systems are considerably influenced by outdoor processes, amongst which the most important are the interactions of the atmosphere and solar radiation with buildings and other objects of the urban environment, particularly with the components of the green and blue infrastructure. The proper understanding of these complex systems and their interactions represent a condition for efficient city management and the crisis management as well as the long term strategic development planning. The important modelling approach is represented by the complex models and the models based on artificial intelligence.

This project is supported by the Technology Agency of the Czech Republic within the programme National Centres of Competence 1: Support programme for applied research, experimental development and innovation.
