Zastosowanie idei smart city w czasie pandemii COVID-19 i izolacji społecznej w Polsce w 2020 roku
Smart city applications during a pandemic and social isolation in Poland in 2020

Summary/Abstract: According to data from the Ministry of Development, in 2019 the 16 largest Polish cities were implementing at least some elements of the smart city concept. Social isolation and the freezing of the economy due to the coronavirus pandemic in 2020 can be a test of these ICT innovations. The aim of the article is to investigate how they were used and whether in reality they were in greater demand by both residents and local administration in this extreme situation. The results of a review of initiatives taken by local authorities, enterprises and citizens in some Polish cities related to the smart city concept are presented during the first wave of the COVID-19 pandemic. Observation of the various types of reaction in such uncommon conditions could serve as a guideline for the further development of applications based on intelligent ICT tools and the creative involvement of all participants in city life.
