To solve the problems generated from fast-changing
world order; information and communication technologies are combined with daily
life to improve citizens’ quality of life and their satisfaction from public
services. Besides, by using technology as a tool to solve problems that appear
in cities, caused by rapid population growth, such as transportation, energy,
water, health, environment, secure and security, smart combinations are being
tried for practical solutions to problems caused by overpopulation in
cities. As a result, cities become more digital and citizens gain the new
digital identity. In life spaces which turn into a complex network, it is
almost obligatory to regulate population, resources, environment and
communication and information technologies in themselves to improve citizens’
life quality and keep it in a sustainable level. Within this period, improving
and diversifying service expectations push governments, public and local
administrations to analyze cities better, predict the upcoming problems and use
limited resources productively with the help of high technology. This situation
has triggered to exist and expand smart city projects. In this context, the
main aim of this research is determined to consider good examples of smart city
projects and to discuss comparatively their reflections on cities in Turkey. The
qualitative approach is used. Firstly, smart city concept and components and
characteristics of smart cities will be examined and than good examples of the smart
city implementations around the World and Turkey will be compared and
evaluated. Thus, it will be possible to determine the level of Turkey in this
regard and compare it with the developments around the World.
