To strengthen digital empowerment and promote the modernization of urban governance, it is necessary to scientifically plan and build big data platforms and network systems, strengthen joint command and coordination among all parties, and effectively improve execution.

With the rapid advancement of urbanization, problems such as air pollution and garbage siege caused by population agglomeration have seriously affected the sustainable development of some cities. The traditional method of supervision and governance based on manual labor is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also difficult to achieve good results. In the era of artificial intelligence, installing smart brains for cities will help solve the problem of urban supervision and governance.
For example, identifying, investigating and dealing with muck trucks and leakage has always been one of the problems of urban supervision. Chongqing launched the application of "muck truck supervision", through the integration of 656 front-end intelligent equipment such as construction sites, garbage elimination sites, main roads, traffic intersections, etc., combined with AI algorithms to accurately identify muck truck violations of laws and regulations, the disposal rate of muck truck pretension violations has increased from the previous 20% to 90%, and the muck truck violations have been greatly reduced. It can be seen that promoting the intelligent development and digital transformation of cities can greatly reduce the cost of urban management and improve the effectiveness of management, which is an inevitable requirement for promoting the modernization of urban governance system and governance capacity.
At the beginning of this month, the "Guiding Opinions on Deepening the Development of Smart Cities and Promoting the Digital Transformation of Cities" drafted by the National Data Bureau was released to the public for comments, and the draft proposed that by 2027, the digital transformation of cities across the country will achieve remarkable results, forming a number of livable, resilient and smart cities that are horizontally connected, vertically connected, and have their own characteristics, which will strongly support the construction of digital China, and by 2030, the digital transformation of cities across the country will make a comprehensive breakthrough, and the people's sense of gain, happiness, and happiness will be achieved. The sense of security has been comprehensively improved, and a number of Chinese-style modern cities with global competitiveness in the era of digital civilization have emerged. This also demonstrates the country's strength and determination to promote the construction of smart cities.
Green and low-carbon is the future development direction of cities, and all localities should help empower the realization of green and low-carbon goals in the construction of smart cities. For example, regions with conditions can promote digital and intelligent management of carbon peaking and carbon neutrality, carry out monitoring and analysis of carbon emissions in key industries and regions, and explore the construction of data space applications such as individual enterprise carbon accounts and carbon footprints, so as to guide the society to form a green and low-carbon production and lifestyle. Shanghai has achieved good results in promoting green and low-carbon transformation by relying on the construction of smart cities. Shibei High-tech Park has added scenarios such as environmental monitoring, green space environmental supervision, and river water quality supervision to the digital platform, as well as "carbon inclusive supervision" and "digital intelligence and dual carbon" modules, so that the park can conduct real-time monitoring, tracking and data analysis of environmental protection indicators of key enterprises. In 2023, the carbon emission intensity of the park will decrease by 23%, and the PUE value of the big data industry (the ratio of all energy consumed by the data center to the energy consumed by the IT load) will reach 1.5, achieving green and sustainable development.
At present, many departments are exploring intelligent supervision methods, such as smart transportation, smart urban management, etc., and have achieved good results. However, data is often not shared between city administrations. The management of environmental protection, transportation, energy and other fields is closely related, and the segmentation and information barriers of urban management are not conducive to the comprehensive research and judgment and disposal of supervision. It is necessary to establish and improve the coordination mechanism of information exchange, resource sharing and work linkage of various departments as soon as possible, and maximize the use of intelligent means to improve the comprehensive efficiency of urban management.
The construction of smart cities requires financial investment. At the moment when financial funds are relatively tight, the construction of smart cities must not be greedy and comprehensive, and must resolutely avoid "one side of a thousand cities" and put an end to digital "image projects". It is necessary to closely combine the characteristics of the city, such as industrial characteristics, population distribution, development positioning, main problems, etc., to promote the digital transformation of the city, and use effective funds in the weakest management and the most needs to be improved, so that the construction of smart cities can play the maximum efficiency of improving management.
With the digital era rolling in, we must make full use of digital technology to empower management, accelerate the construction of smart cities, make urban supervision more efficient, services more convenient, and people have more happiness and a sense of gain.
