Abstract:
If there was a problem in transforming urban areas into smart cities, why not talk about smart villages. If we look at the rural area carefully, we find areas that do not even offer the minimum of conditions offered by the localities in the urban environment. The natural conditions existing here offer the possibility of developing areas that can be called smart villages. The question is to model these areas intelligently by using efficiently the IT technology but also the ecosystem in the area. If smart technology has played and continues to play an important role in urban areas, why not in rural areas as well. With its help we can offer better facilities in daily comfort in the field of education, healthcare, energy, water, job offers, tourism development, ease of materializing beneficially products made either in their own household, farm, lucrative associations, so in other words, offering the locals the possibility to be engaged in various forms of activity, regardless of the geographical area where the plain, hill or mountain village is located. If we analyze carefully the current situation - COVID-19 crisis but not only, both medically and economically we must not forget these areas, where the environment is favorable to us, and IT technology is available to us to we use it. It is proposed to create a platform, based on the use of blockchain and IoT technology, with the help of which the local leadership can manage and support the local community with its needs and desires.
