Abstract

The development of smart cities has been a significant area of focus in recent years, with the integration of advanced technologies aiming to enhance the quality of life for urban inhabitants. Predictive analytics plays a pivotal role in this transformation by providing insights that can inform urban planning, resource management, and infrastructure development. This paper explores the use of predictive analytics in smart cities, highlighting how it can help in forecasting trends, identifying potential issues, and optimizing decision-making processes. By analyzing data collected from various urban systems, such as transportation, energy, and public safety, predictive models can offer a forward-looking perspective that can lead to more efficient and sustainable urban environments. The discussion outlines the challenges and opportunities associated with integrating predictive analytics into smart city development, emphasizing the importance of accurate data collection, robust modeling techniques, and ethical considerations in the application of these technologies.
