Integration of Internet of Things and Big Data Analytics for Smart City Infrastructure Development
Keywords:
IoT, Big Data Analytics, Smart Cities, Urban Infrastructure, Predictive Systems, Data-Driven GovernanceAbstract
The convergence of Internet of Things (IoT) and Big Data Analytics (BDA) is a transformative force in smart city infrastructure development. IoT sensors generate real-time data across urban systems, while BDA enables actionable insights to improve efficiency, sustainability, and responsiveness. This paper explores the symbiotic role of these technologies, reviews existing research, identifies challenges, and proposes a layered framework for urban innovation. We emphasize predictive analytics, intelligent transportation, smart waste, and energy optimization as key use cases.
