The role of the Internet of Things

The functions of the Internet of Things include: urban management, precision marketing, security, smart cities and smart infrastructure, energy applications, etc.

1. Urban Management

In the field of urban management, IoT technology can be applied to intelligent transportation, intelligent buildings, real-time monitoring of monuments and ancient trees, cultural relic protection and digital museums and digital books libraries and digital archives.

2. Precision marketing

4. Smart cities and smart infrastructure

The Internet of Things helps build infrastructure to provide residents with quality of life. For example, real-time weather response systems, better traffic management, waste management and utility management can help governments around the world improve operational efficiency.

5. Energy Applications

Using IoT for predictive maintenance can reduce downtime by up to 50%. Smart grids help improve the reliability and efficiency of the grid and prevent electricity theft.
