“The early completion of the data center will contribute to the goal of building a smart city and managing the city’s socio-economic development,” he said.
He also emphasized the need for digitization, management, and operation of the city's smart traffic system.
He urged the city’s Department of Transport, the Department of Information and Communications and the Digital Transformation Center to quickly coordinate and implement a risk management platform using artificial intelligence (AI) to predict all risk scenarios, including traffic.
He called for the center to rapidly modernize investments in infrastructure, equipment and personnel to effectively manage and operate the infrastructure system, ensuring that the city's traffic is sufficiently smart.
Last year, the center coordinated a pilot program to impose administrative penalties on individuals and organizations transporting goods by car using automatic weight measurement devices.
Regarding the application of artificial intelligence (AI), in 2024, the city’s Department of Transport signed a cooperation agreement with Monash University in Australia to promote cooperation in academic training and technology transfer, supporting the management and operation of the city's smart traffic system.
