Smart cities have gradually attracted the attention of the central and local governments, and their support has increased. At the same time, broadband, Internet of Things awareness, cloud computing and other information technologies have also begun to develop at a high speed. On the central side, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has successively carried out pilot projects in Yangzhou and Changzhou, signed a smart city cooperation agreement with Zhejiang Province, and also organized and implemented the China-Europe green smart city project. The Ministry of Science and Technology also took the lead in establishing the strategic alliance for technological innovation of smart cities in China.
In some areas, smart cities have entered the stage of substantial advancement. For example, the Beijing Beidou Palace platform, which was jointly invested and built by the Beijing Municipal Government and related satellite navigation enterprises, started construction in 20 13. As the first Beidou platform serving smart cities in China, it will be based in Beijing and serve the whole country, providing government affairs management, industry applications and people's livelihood services for smart cities.
This year, Harbin also plans to invest 654.38 billion yuan to start the construction of "smart city", expand the coverage of WiFi network in public hotspots, accelerate the preparation of smart city construction and development plans, and promote the construction of key projects such as "Smart Songbei Pioneer Demonstration Zone".
Hubei Province is also about to launch the pilot project of smart city spatio-temporal information cloud platform and promote the construction of public service platform. Let residents in the pilot cities get convenient services in smart homes, road network monitoring, smart hospitals, food and drug management, etc.
The implementation of the "smart city" strategy is of great significance, and as the basis of the implementation of various application projects in smart cities, high-quality broadband networks in various regions of the city are very important.
As the builders of network infrastructure, operators are naturally the main force to promote smart cities. Smart medical care, intelligent transportation, smart agriculture and many other industrial applications are inseparable from the support of operators.
Recently, the Zhejiang Provincial Government has signed six cooperation agreements with the State Grid Corporation and other central enterprises, such as the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the National Standards Committee, the Ministry of Environmental Protection, the Ministry of Water Resources, the Ministry of Health and the National Tourism Administration, among which three major operators will continue to actively participate in the construction of smart cities in Zhejiang. It is reported that the three major operators have participated in the investment, construction and operation of smart city projects as partners, which has promoted the "landing" of related technology research and development, manufacturing, business model innovation, operational services and personnel training.
In addition, the Guangzhou Municipal People's Government signed a cooperation agreement with China Mobile, and will invest more than 20 billion yuan to build the largest TD-LTE network in China before 20 15, so as to realize full coverage of TD-LTE signals and WIFI signals in Guangzhou 10, and provide a multi-level, three-dimensional, high-bandwidth and full-coverage wireless basic network for smart Guangzhou.
Qionghai city Municipal People's Government and China Telecom Hainan Company also signed a comprehensive strategic cooperation framework agreement, making joint efforts to build a "Digital Qionghai Smart City" within five years. Within five years, the two sides will carry out in-depth strategic cooperation around three major areas: smart government, smart people's livelihood and smart industry.
As the first telecom operator in China to release the strategy of "Smart City", Hubei Unicom signed the strategic cooperation framework agreement of "Smart Hubei" with the provincial government at the end of 20 12. Build a "smart city" network with wide coverage, deep coverage, strong carrying capacity and high access rate.
