AUSTRALIA has been laying the foundation for smart cities across the length and breadth of the country.
Over the past few years, since 2017, Australian Minister for Cities, Urban Infrastructure, and Population Alan Tudge has worked on two rounds of smart city development projects with AUD50 million (US$35 million) worth of support from the government.
More recently, with support from Minister Tudge, a major remote sensor network has been established in metropolitan Adelaide as part of the Australian and local government-funded Connected Cities project.

According to Minister Tudge, over 100 smart sensors are now making public spaces safer and more enjoyable for the community as a result of this project.
