Guide to creating a smart community in Australia 

Welcome to the second edition of the guide which showcases some of the best examples of smart solutions being deployed in Australia and New Zealand.

Building on our first Concepts and considerations for the future of smart communities launched in 2016 (in partnership with Acache), this year’s guide has expanded to include a broader range of smart city themes and case studies featuring best practice initiatives and deployments from large cities to regional areas.

We are excited to share the successes of our members and partners as they solve challenges with smarter approaches, innovative solutions and smart technologies, ranging from smart parking to smart signage, lighting and poles, to sensors, apps, management platforms and open data programs.

Project partners

We thank our partners for their valuable contributions to the 2017 Guide to creating a smart community in Australia.
