This was announced at the BRICS International Innovation Forum by Sergey Plugotarenko, Director General of the ANO Digital Economy. During the panel discussion, representatives of Russia and African countries raised the issue of the prospects for the development of smart cities.
"There is an estimate that countries around the world will spend about $190 billion on the implementation of the smart city program in 2023. First of all, on technology, communications, georgia whatsapp resource infrastructure. The implementation of the smart city concept has a significant impact on the lives of citizens. This is rapid information about public transport failures, infrastructure problems, the search for missing people and animals, medicine, security. In a smart city, the quality of life indicator increases by 10-30%. Travel time on public transport is saved by 15-30 minutes, because the route is easier to calculate in advance. The incidence rate decreases by 8-15%, and the health of the population improves. The additional economic effect over 10 years, from 2018 to 2028, is estimated at $20 trillion worldwide. This speaks of a global trend," said Sergey Plugotarenko.
for Russia: "In Russia, smart cities are a big phenomenon. Thanks to the Moscow government, the Ministry of Construction, the State Council Commission on "digital", we were able to pack the solutions we studied into a small report. The years of the pandemic forced us to quickly go through all the stages of digitalization, although we had previously planned them several years in advance. It turned out that there are a lot of digital players in Russia who can do everything quickly, literally in a few months. Now one of the main trends for 2025-2040 will be the creation of a single digital circuit that will unite practices, standards, and solutions in countries around the world. We have defined digital transformation as one of our national goals. The digitalization index "IQ cities" is calculated for more than 200 cities. Moscow is in first place (14th place in the world), followed by St. Petersburg, Kazan, Ufa, Krasnoyarsk. Now 40% of Moscow's city systems and services use artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms. 99.7% of Moscow's territory is covered by high-speed communication networks. More than 91% of residents use online services."
Eduard Lysenko, Minister of the Moscow Government and Head of the Moscow Department of Information Technology, spoke about the digital twin of the city: "At the moment, we have about 500 cases in terms of digitalization that are producing good results. These cases cover all sectors of the city's economy. One of the most successful is the digital twin. This is a kind of model of Moscow. Every year, aircraft, helicopters, and drones fly over the city - and even a little beyond its borders within the central ring road - several times and take tens of millions of photographs. All these pictures are glued together to form a real digital model of the city, into which architectural urban planning solutions are built. Not a single action is currently taking place without the use of this tool. The digital twin is the basis for decision-making in the Moscow government. It has changed the management model. A similar system is used in Singapore. Nevertheless, this is a unique story that we will develop further."
Director of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Products at PJSC VimpelCom (Beeline) Konstantin Romanov described how he sees the development of smart cities in the world: "It is worth noting that all the priorities of large cities are based on the key challenges and problems of megacities. This is transport and social infrastructure, security. Telecom operators have a lot of data, which allows them to solve many problems within the city. For example, where it is better to open a metro station, solve the issue of transport accessibility for each residential complex. Computer vision technology is gaining popularity now. Cameras are everywhere, they hang on every pole. In the Emirates, there are so many of them that there is no need to even report incidents anywhere. The city has eyes that, in real time, use AI technologies to determine what is happening and help people solve problems here and now. The introduction of these technologies everywhere is only a matter of time. Now we are organizing platforms for exchanging experiences both within Russia and abroad. We talk about successful cases in neighboring cities, attract experts who report on the successes of Europe, America, Asia in solving specific problems. We are close to the ideal picture of the world, where AI technologies will work for people."
