Every city can be smart. Due to the complexity of the way cities are managed, financed, planned and operated, there is currently no fixed definition of "Smart City". The concept of 'smart cities' can be described as a process by which a city becomes more efficient, more attractive to residents and businesses, and more environmentally friendly.

Modern management requires accurate and up-to-date data. One way to build a smart city database is to use an open platform. Platform Asseco SAMO is designed for technical infrastructure managers as well as for the Smart City area, where the central module, spatial database of technical equipment and other infrastructure assets, is a natural unifying environment for evaluating and presenting data from smart devices. Combined with the use of Open Data technology, Open API and data sharing based on open standards, it provides tools for creating significant added value, either through its own applications or by providing data and functions to third-party applications. It is not just a simple presentation and innovative data processing using advanced geographic system features; SAMO also provides tools for reliable operation of the smart city infrastructure, information support for maintenance processes, operational security and further development, as well as ensuring a variety of urban agendas using data interoperability, including enabling electronic operations and online access to digitized data.
