Who would have thought just two years ago that Kyiv would have the ambition to be-come a smart city, a city of smart technologies, smart governance, and smart citizens? Today we have this ambition and, moreover, it is already being realized. We have taken the first steps towards this goal and the overwhelming support of the Smart City vision among Kyiv’s citizens is really inspiring. And proves – Kyiv’s residents strive for advancement and renewal.

Smart cities of the 21st Century are the foundations for the economic growth and social development throughout the world. The future of our planet is built around them. Joining this club of the best cities on the planet is a daring and motivating aim.

I am confident that Kyiv is capable of achieving this goal as it is a city of proactive and strong-minded people who drive changes, dream about the future, and aspire for the best — top standards of living, tangible results and shared successes.

Our city, together with our country, has strived to build a bright future and Kyiv has the opportunity to embrace a new force to propel us forward. Getting smart for the capital is more than just an opportunity to get things moving. It is a chance to enter a new era, a new dimension of the developed, post-industrial world, and to become a leading city.

The Smart City is a modern model for urban transformation—one in which advanced technologies help solve the greatest challenges of the city, transform the system of the governance, and create conditions for the development of communities and citizens.

KYIV SMART CITY CONCEPT 2020LEADERSHIP ♦ INNOVATION ♦ COLLABORATION

FOREWORD

Today we can confidently say that there is an idea that can bring together the city government, community activists and the business community. This idea is to make Kyiv “smart.” We all want to be surrounded by smart people, live in a smart environment and have a smart government.

The KYIV SMART CITY Initiative has seen develop and energize a network of talented, proactive people who love their city. And people are the most important asset of any city. They are the driving force behind its initiative, development and desire of a higher quality of life. Without their energy, the city risks becoming a neglected, depressed, dull place.

We are confident that Kyiv has a bright future. And we are excited that we can join our efforts not only “against” various social problems, but also “for”— for our children living in a comfortable, modern, safe, and bright Kyiv. This Kyiv is the Smart City of the future; the future, that is starting right now.

SMART CITY – URBAN DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY FOR THE 21ST CENTURY

Cities have always been centers for the development of civilization. Modern cities are facing various challenges, and probably the most difficult challenge today is combining comfort and social appeal for citizens with developed infrastructure, environmental sustainability and rapid advancements of technologies. Today cities are the driving force of culture, economy and education; they become a platform for the implementation of technological and social innovations. Not surprisingly, cities compete with one another as the development of comfortable infrastructure has a direct impact on the economic performance of the city and determines its attractiveness to skilled professionals and investors.

Kyiv, a city with ancient history, has repeatedly been at the center of events that have determined the historical trajectory of European civilization. Furthermore, it is a city of extraordinary talents and creativity. Kyiv is a capital city that seeks to be on par with the most successful cities of the world, ensuring a prosperous future for every citizen. This ambition requires a balanced strategic approach to the improvement of economic, social and environmental performance of the city, which is attainable only as a result of effective integration of urban infrastructure and municipal services. Such an approach will require not only «smart» solutions for Kyiv, but also radical transformations in the ways the city is governed.

The KYIV SMART CITY Concept and Vision is designed to create opportunities for the growth of the Ukrainian capital by combining a strategic approach, technological advances and wide public engagement in the creation of a new quality of life. The KYIV SMART CITY Concept lays the foundation for further infrastructural, technological and social development of the city and defines a new trajectory in the transformation of its urban space in accordance with the standards of the future.

KYIV SMART CITY Concept takes into account the interests of all residents, businesses and non-profit organizations and defines new roles and functions of city governance. The implementation of KYIV SMART CITY Concept and its strategic objectives will contribute to the transformation of the Ukrainian capital into a technologically advanced, comfortable, and socially responsible metropolis of Eastern Europe.

TECHNOLOGIES AT THE SERVICE OF CITIZENS total digitization and implementation of ICT aimed at improving the quality of life and city management, ensuring cost reduction and sustainable development in Kyiv.

Broadband connection: Kyiv enjoys a developed infrastructure of fiber optic communication, but the level of Wi-Fi and 3G coverage does not meet contemporary needs. Broadband coverage of the city is one of the urgent tasks of Kyiv Smart City. During 2015-2020 the City will see a significant increase in high-speed Internet coverage. High-speed, reliable access to the Internet improves the business environment and provides opportunities for innovation in the city, and as a result, contributes to economic growth of the city. Development of a city-wide wireless network is possible by creating a consortium between the city mayor’s office and the telecom operators.

The Internet of Things / The Internet of Everything: communication network between physical or virtual objects («things») based on technology that allow them to interact with each other and with the environment, to receive, communicate and produce new information without human intervention. The use of measurement devices, sensors, cameras, GPS devices, thermostats and weather stations, drones to monitor traffic, weather conditions and emissions of CO2, tracking public transport, safety control in poorly-lit areas, control of emergency situations in utilities services, tracking and informing on the availability of parking spots, control of traffic violations, monitoring and prevention of street crime and public order and in-building safety. The KYIV SMART CITY Concept envisages that all these devices are interconnected and interoperable, and integrate into the city operating platform for efficient collection, processing and data analysis in order to improve the quality of city management and enable prompt responses to various situations.

Smart Personal Devices: giving residents and guests of Kyiv the possibility for better use of their personal devices (smartphones, tablets, etc.) for their needs by creating functional applications for fast and high-quality receipt of e-services, tourist itineraries and similar useful information, traceability of public transport and congestion, vacant parking spot locators, electronic voting, petitions, consultations, and more.

Cloud Computing: a set of technologies that allows storing and / or processing of data (via CPU or software) as a service provided to the client, based on the use of hardware / software spread in the Internet with traditional client-server architecture. Today, Kyiv uses key technologies for data storage and processing – a city data center and a cloud computing service are an important part of the KYIV SMART CITY IT architecture used for the Online Budget project.

Big Data Analysis: high volume, high speed, and wide-ranging data assets that require new forms of treatment including enhanced decision-making and process optimization. Big data is one of the most powerful tools for data processing and decision-making in the city at a radically different level, making it more accurate, more efficient, and effective. Using big data in Kyiv presents an opportunity to get to a new quality level of city management and produce better responses to the various needs of the City and its citizens. Big data is the latest technology which requires significant investment and a developed IT-infrastructure. Big data is already used for processing and analysis of data in the city’s budget and in the future it will also be implemented for improving city services and utilities. Technology standards provide conditions for high quality technological solutions.
