SATELLITE CITY

AND SMART CITY


WHAT IS A SMART CITY?
1. A smart city is a technologically modern urban area that uses different
types of electronic methods, voice activation methods and sensors to
collect specific data.
2. It provides amenities including water supply, power supply, Internet
connection, public transport, affordable housing, waste managements,
health care and education.
• 3. The Smart Cities Mission is an innovative and new initiative by the
Government of India to drive economic growth and improve the
quality of life of people by enabling local development and
harnessing technology as a means to create smart outcomes for
citizens.
• The main goal of a smart city is to optimize city functions and
promote economic growth while also improving the quality of
life for citizens by using smart technologies and data analysis.
The value lies in how this technology is used rather than simply
how much technology is available.
• Records are kept and resources are monitored and managed
using computerized systems. Most services are provided
online. Residents can also communicate directly with the
government online. The aim of a smart city is to
ensure rational economic development which will benefit
residents, businesses, the government and the environment

SATELLITE CITY

• A satellite city is a city that is located close to but outside the


limits of a larger city and is connected to the larger city by an
efficient public transport system.
• For example, London has several satellite cities like Brentwood,
Crawley and Chelmsford. New Haven and Bridgeport
are among the satellites of New York City. Ipswich, Queensland,
is a satellite to Brisbane(Australia), and Kitchener and Guelph,
to Toronto(Canada).
Characteristics of Satellite city
• It is a planned city.
• It has mainly residential buildings, schools, banks and shops. It has few or
no factories.
• It is established as a city distinct from its neighboring larger city, and
has its own municipal government and its own water supply, power supply
and waste-management system
• Often, its limits and defined and there are restrictions on its expansion.
• It is separated from its neighboring larger city by a large stretch of farmland or
countryside or by a geographical feature such as a river or a lake.
• It is connected to its neighboring large city by an efficient public transport
system, which may include buses, a high -speed railway, and so on.
METROPOLIITAN CITY
• A satellite city and its neighboring larger city are often part of a METROPOLITAN
AREA.
• A metropolitan area is an area that includes one or more large cities, their satellite
cities and the rural area between these cities from where commuters go to work
in the cities.
• Metropolitan areas include satellite cities, towns and intervening rural areas that
are socioeconomically tied to the urban core, typically measured
by commuting patterns. Most metropolitan areas are anchored by one core
city such as Paris metropolitan area (Paris), Mumbai Metropolitan Region (Mumbai
(Bombay)), and New York metropolitan area (New York City). In some cases,
metropolitan areas have multiple centers of close to equal importance, such
as Dallas–Fort Worth metropolitan area (Dallas and Fort Worth), Islamabad–
Rawalpindi metropolitan area (Islamabad and Rawalpindi), the Rhine-Ruhr in
Germany and the Randstad in the Netherlands.
