Abstract

Urban planning plays a vital role for a city to become sustainably developed. A planned idea without compromising future demands helps in bringing equilibrium demands for growth with the need to protect the environment. Using available space along with intelligent technology such as intelligent transportation, advanced hospitals, energy efficiency, security, etc., is the primary goal of planning. One of the major problems in urban planning is the transportation. Urban transportation along with the intelligent network system using Internet of Things (IoT) technology is a step further for such development. Intelligent Vehicles are used to collect, analyze and share knowledge based on IoT in applications like civilian surveillance, roads and traffic planning, pollution and other urban-aware applications, and weather reports. Electronics and communication technology in the field of urban planning play a vital role by enhancing networks and security in information transmission so that authentic information is obtained and right action is taken so as to prevent any mishap. Intelligent transportation plays a vital role in this by monitoring the pollution level, improving road safety, increasing efficiency, and monitoring non-renewable natural resources. ...
