1. In terms of infrastructure, the smart cities should have 24x7 availability of high quality utility services like water and power.
2. A robust transport system that emphasises on public transport is also a key element.
3. In social infrastructure, the cities should provide opportunities for jobs and livelihoods for its inhabitants.
4. The smart cities should also have proper facilities for entertainment and the safety and security of the people. State-of-the-art health and education facilities are also a must.
5. The smart cities should minimize waste by increasing energy efficiency and reducing water conservation. Proper recycling of waste materials must be done in such cities.

Various kinds of devices listed below collectively form what is called ‘Internet of Things’ that are critical in shaping future smart cities:
* Sensors that monitor the condition of utilities such as electricity, water supply, load on surface transport and capture real-time data;
* Gateways that aggregate real-time data from these sensors, perform local analytics and based on the result, take localised action to prevent possible faults from further propagating into the networks ;
* Communication infrastructure to connect these gateways to server cloud for transmitting data on condition of local area;
* Server farms in a cloud based architecture that warehouses the data; perform real-time mining of such data to provide useful information to various stakeholders through various channels such as mobile devices.
These devices facilitate optimisation of service availability in the local area while confirming to the regional and macro level constraints. This provides flexibility to local community in terms of prioritising the usage of scarce resources.
The second important element is the design architecture of the different ICT components of smart city projects. Though currently only a few firms dominate the ICT platform for smart cities, it is required to build platforms with open gateways, application program interfaces, and open data sets so that expertise of numerous Indian IT firms (both small and large) and the huge developer communities can be tapped for building innovative applications and services.
The sensors, communication devices, and the transmission infrastructure provide huge opportunity for local electronics manufcturing which has been identified as a focus area by the government. The data so collected if made open, provide ammunition for big data and analytics start-ups in the country.
Third is measurement of smartness of cities. The GSM Association—the industry body of mobile operators, launched the smart cities index that consists of a set of market, social and economic indicators that track the performance of smart cities initiatives. The ICT/mobile indicators are a subset of a broader range of smart cities indicators. Their use will allow the cities to quantify the impact of ICT/mobile on the city’s operations, its local economy and its citizens.
The seed funding allocated in the budget is just a small stepping stone. For these projects to bloom and become a reality, it requires both financial and working collaborations across all stakeholders. With our urban landscape growing uncontrollably it is time that we step up the pedal to make living in cities a pleasurable experience.
