Book cover Machine Intelligence and Data Analytics for Sustainable Future Smart Cities

Part of the book series: Studies in Computational Intelligence ((SCI,volume 971))

Abstract

The mobile-based community participation model is a mobile app for citizens to solve everyday problems. The project involved development of mobile app for smartphones integrated with e-Governance for Nagpur Municipal Corporation in Central India as a part of the Smart Cities initiative. The model is an innovative mobile-based system for a multi number of task involving community participation. It provides effective solutions for reporting civic problems to the local authorities. The application of a similar model can solve urban problems and promote community participation in smart cities. Furthermore, this chapter investigates the question on what is a Smart City? How to develop a mobile app for promoting community participation? How to develop a cloud-based model that could be integrated with the existing system of e-Governance? How smart technology is developed by integration of Geographic Information System (GIS) and Global Positioning System (GPS)? The mobile-based community participation model has many benefits. Because of its benefit, it can be easily applied to smart cities.
