                            <p>Nowadays, the population growth in cities due to migration and natural increase has caused various problems. Pollution, security, economic problems, increasing infrastructure needs, changing production and consumption habits, increasing inequalities, unbalanced distribution of the social environment, etc. these are just a few of them. The fact that this and similar problems have become a problem for all world cities on a global scale has accelerated the search for solutions. Technological tools are used intensively to identify, measure, analyze, share and reach solution-oriented results of the increasing problems of the city. Due to the fact that smart city affects many sectors and/or areas of life due to its scope, it is covered in a wide framework: Economy, environment, quality of life, transportation, management and smart people. In the study, smart city solutions related to the concept of smart city are discussed in the example of Balıkesir province.</p></trans-abstract>

Kirlilik, güvenlik, ekonomik sorunlar, altyapı ihtiyaçlarının artması, üretim ve tüketim alışkanlıklarının değişimi, eşitsizliklerin artması, sosyal sermeyenin dengesiz dağılımı vb. bunlardan sadece bir kaçıdır. Bu ve benzerlerinin küresel ölçekte tüm dünya kentlerinin sorunu haline dönüşmesi çözüm arayışlarının hızlanmasına neden olmuştur. Teknolojik araçlar, kentin artan sorunlarının belirlenmesi, ölçülmesi, analiz edilmesi, paylaşılması ve çözüm odaklı sonuçlara erişilmesinde yoğun şekilde kullanılmaktadır. Akıllı kent kapsamı gereği pek çok sektörü ve/veya yaşam alanını etkilemesi nedeniyle geniş bir çerçevede ele alınmaktadır: Ekonomi, çevre, yaşam kalitesi, ulaşım, yönetim ve insan. Çalışmada akıllı kent kavramına ilişkin gerçekleşen akıllı kent çözümleri Balıkesir ili örneğinde ele almaktadır.</p></abstract>
