2 Our World Is Facing Serious Challenges

3 75% of world population to live in cities by 2050 Global population of 9 10 billion people by % of GCC population will live in cities by cm rise in sea level in 20 th century 56% increase in global energy consumption by 2040 Around 7 million deaths in 2012 (one in eight of total global deaths) as a result of air pollution exposure 2.5 billion vehicles by 2050 Sources: UN, WHO, US EIA, US EPA, International Transport Forum

4 Tackling the issues: vision and leadership Significant innovation in the production, delivery and consumption of water and energy is vital to our collective future. Responsible conservation and management, and a culture of sustainability, are important goals for developed and developing nations alike. Ensure sustainable development while preserving the environment, and achieve balance between economic and social development. Focus on improving the quality of air, preserving water resources, increasing the contribution of clean energy and implementing green growth plans. Preserve and enrich Abu Dhabi's physical and cultural identity. Creating an always improving quality of life for residents on four equal pillars of sustainability: environmental, economic, social, and cultural.

5 Smart Sustainable Cities A smart sustainable city is an innovative city that uses information and communication technologies (ICTs) and other means to improve quality of life, efficiency of urban operation and services, and competitiveness, while ensuring that it meets the needs of present and future generations with respect to economic, social and environmental aspects.

6 Smart Sustainable Cities GIS plays an important role in enabling smart cities, as every resource in a city has location. The role of GIS will continue to grow as more spatial data is collected from mobile devices and the increasing use of sensors. Smart cities will increasingly use 3D visualisation and analysis in planning their growth.

7 The Role of GIS is More Important Than Ever Providing the Content and Context for Understanding Everything

8 Alternative Energy: Wind Farm Site Selection GIS enables multi-criteria analysis to overlay all relevant information in determine ideal sites for wind turbines Constraints: wind power, population centres, transport access, transmission lines, sufficient land Maps to visualise outputs of the analysis and the recommended sites meeting the criteria
