摘要

Sustainable urban development will result in cities worldwide to evolve into smart cities by utilizing Internet of Things (IoT) technology implemented on 5G networks. This will provide people living in smart cities with a better Quality of Life by improving services and it will also lead to sustainable resource management and use. A literature study was done on the possibility of the development of smart cities in South Africa and the benefits it will provide, as well as, challenges that will be faced. The different elements used to develop smart cities, namely 5G, IoT and cloud computing, were investigated and discussed. The study focused on the application of smart transportation and smart health in the urban environment, as a technical revolution in these two domains will provide an opportunity to benefit the majority of people, irrespective of social status. It was observed that developing smart cities in the South African context will provide major benefits in the transportation and health sectors, which could lead to an improvement of the people lives and effective resource management.
