Framework of a Smart Local Infrastructure Management System

In a smart city, all the aspects of life are administrated by means of digital technologies of Internet, sensor networks and Internet of things. As part of a smart city, smart infrastructure plays an important role in integrated infrastructure planning and management to analyze the individual and combined effects of infrastructure systems and how they can better work together to serve the community. This research studies the framework of a smart infrastructure management system. The framework proposed focuses on the monitoring and management of critical information in subway tunnels. Monitored data would be collected through sensor network and analyzed through the smart infrastructure management system. The framework can report emergency or safety-hazard situations before they develop into disasters. The framework can also enhance infrastructure resilience to support continuity of service to the community and business. The research will provide deeper knowledge and real-time practical intelligence of connections in the infrastructure system.
