Abstract
The so-called smart city is a new form of information technology that is achieved through the integration of the contemporary advanced big data technology, Internet of Things technology, cloud computing technology, and spatial geographic information. At present, the application of this technology is important for the urban construction, planning, and services as well as management. This technology also provides great convenience in these aspects, which has allowed the cities to develop and transform towards the direction of smart cities. Based on this situation, the construction of spatiotemporal big data platforms in smart cities was analyzed in this article, and this analysis may provide a reference for the construction and development of today’s smart cities.
