Florence, Italy-Digital development promotes green and low-carbon development
Green and low-carbon development is the main direction of building a smart city in Florence. Currently, Florence has replaced its road lighting with 30,000 LED lights, saving 10 million kilowatt-hours of electricity and reducing 12,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions per year. Florence has also launched projects to improve energy efficiency in the suburbs through smart grids and smart lighting.
Florence actively uses intelligent technology to improve traffic operation efficiency. Smart trams in trial operation are installed with sensors and radar, and stations are installed with data collection equipment. Eduardo Queies, coordinator of the smart tram project, said the project aims to create "smart areas" for cities and reduce the use of private cars to promote sustainable development.
At present, Florence is building a smart city control room, which will become a central system for processing real-time urban traffic information, garbage classification and other data, which can more efficiently control the flow of tourists and respond to emergencies.
Florence Mayor Dario Nadella said that the smart city is to facilitate the life of citizens and provide better services, and Florence will continue to move towards digital and sustainable development.

Yanbu-smart application in Saudi Arabia to improve the effectiveness of urban governance
Overloading and overspeed are common problems in many industrial cities, which not only damage the road surface, but also easy to cause traffic accidents. In Yanbu, Saudi Arabia, highly sensitive sensors and high-definition license plate recognition cameras are set up at important intersections and on both sides of roads, which can accurately record the speed, load and other information of passing vehicles, and upload them to the automatic management system to punish illegal vehicles. This measure effectively reduces the accident rate.
Through cooperation with enterprises, the Yanbu municipal government has quickly built wired and wireless broadband networks throughout the city, providing high-speed network access services for citizens, and greatly improving the network experience.
