The number of smart cities is on the rise in
India. The government has taken keen interest by
investing in urban renewal and retrofitting
program with Smart City Mission, launched in
2015, making cities citizen friendly and
sustainable. 100 cities are being considered for
smart city title by the government run campaign.
But what makes a city smart? Simple Smart
technology. With the digital age, it is
mandatory for the cities to get smarter. A smart
city is the right combination of technology
paired with existing or new infrastructure. The
idea is to utilize latest IoT (Internet of
Things) technology in the implementation of smart
cities. Indian cities will experience upgraded
lifestyle. To have a lasting effect, technology
will have to evolve and and the level of
automation shall experience an increase. India
is facing a lot of infrastructure related
problems in spite of booming technology. Better
results can be expected out of existing
infrastructure with the help of smart products.
What would better solve the problem, than a fresh
solution that would take care of various aspects
in a smart and organized manner? Smart city
solutions needs to be flexible to attain
different requirements for different cities.
Thus, highly customized solutions are being
worked out to suit unique needs of growing
cities. It is a logistical nightmare to monitor
and track happenings around cities, and this is
where automation helps. Lets consider the
example of waste collection and management.
Deploying IoT and related technologies can
address some of the predominant challenges in
solid waste collection very effectively.
IoT-enabled waste collection and transportation
can bring in significant advantages in the
overall implementation of waste collection
solutions. Fuel consumption can be reduced with
lesser truck trips to collect the waste if they
know exactly when the bin is full and ready to be
taken. Composting and compacting the waste would
help solve the problem, again, a solution offered
in smart waste management solutions.

at a rapid pace since the last decade. For
example, electric vehicles that are set to

future cities. For which, smart city can provide
a distributed network of charging
stations. Implementation of technology is not
only oriented towards efficient lifestyle but
also environmental benefits. Masstrans gives out
