Public support for AI-enabled local government services
AI is increasingly embedded in local government systems, shaping how cities organise, automate, and govern public services. However, public support for AI-enabled services remains uneven across governance contexts, raising critical questions for responsible and sustainable urban innovation. This study investigates how citizens in Australia, Hong Kong, and Saudi Arabia evaluate different AI modalities in municipal service delivery, and how these e…
UAV-Enabled Intelligent Curbside Monitoring
Safe-City-Ai
AI-enabled surveillance technologies are increasingly deployed at mega sporting events to support crowd management, security screening, access control, and real-time operational decision-making, often as part of broader smart city strategies aimed at enhancing urban efficiency and public safety. Despite their rapid uptake, existing research remains fragmented across technical, organisational, and ethical domains, offering limited guidance on how …
Advancing sustainable construction
The transition towards sustainable built environments increasingly depends on the effective integration of AI in construction. While AI can support productivity, safety, decision-making and resource efficiency, its adoption in construction remains fragmented across organisations, projects and professional workflows. This study develops and empirically validates a trust-enhanced Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) to explain AI adoption and realised…
AIoT-enabled platform urbanism for smart city management
Urban environments are increasingly complex, dynamic, and data-intensive, requiring advanced spatial intelligence to support proactive, evidence-based governance. Current smart city and urban informatics platforms are limited by static datasets, siloed architectures, and underutilised AI capabilities. This study proposes and demonstrates a novel AIoT-enabled platform architecture for built environment mapping and spatial decision support. Anchore…
Planning beyond 2032
The 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games represent not only a pivotal moment to shape the future of Brisbane; they represent an unprecedented opportunity to rethink how Australian cities plan and build beyond short-term needs to achieve equitable urban futures. This viewpoint advocates that Brisbane can be at the forefront of this transformational change by pursuing resilient and climate-ready infrastructure, inclusive and connected communities, rev…
Rethinking impact assessment for Olympic mega-events
With six years remaining until the Brisbane 2032 Olympic and Paralympic Games, this viewpoint examines whether conventional impact assessment approaches are adequate for governing the cumulative, cross-scalar, and long-term impacts of mega-events. The Olympic and Paralympic Games generate governance and assessment challenges that extend beyond the scope of traditional project-based environmental impact assessment (EIA), including multiple interde…
Surveilled urban futures
Urban AI is increasingly embedded in the governance of security, mobility, and everyday life through sensors, cameras, and algorithmic systems promoted under smart city agendas. While these technologies promise efficiency and protection, their rapid normalisation raises tensions between security, democratic accountability and individual freedom. This commentary critically examines AI-enabled urban surveillance as a contemporary mode of statecraft…

Navigating urban climate design implementation challenges
Urban densification, intended to enhance efficiency, often exacerbates urban climate issues like diminished thermal and wind comfort. Despite substantial evidence on the climatic impacts of urbanization, integrating this knowledge into development practices remains difficult. This study investigates urban climate design in Brisbane, Australia through semi-structured interviews with built environment professionals. A qualitative thematic analysis …
Urban planning and IPCC-like city assessments integration for climate-resilient cities
The rapidly intensifying effects of climate change on urban settlements demand that cities move to the forefront of resilience planning. Climate extremes, from heatwaves to flooding, are increasingly testing the adaptability limits of urban systems and the vulnerability of their populations. Recognizing the unique position of cities, the IPCC’s seventh assessment cycle has prioritized urban areas in its upcoming Special Report on Climate Change a…
Leveraging urban AI for high-resolution urban heat mapping
Urban heat island (UHI) effects are increasingly recognised as a significant challenge arising from urbanisation, leading to elevated temperatures within urban areas that pose risks to public health and undermine the sustainability of cities. Effective UHI management requires high-resolution and timely mapping of urban temperature patterns to guide interventions. Traditional methods for urban heat mapping often lack the spatial accuracy and effic…
Systems-based approach to public electric vehicle supply equipment expansion
The lack of charging stations and the associated range anxiety remain the most cited barriers to Electric Vehicle (EV) adoption in cities despite ongoing efforts by public and private organisations. Policies outline detailed requirements and plan for the expansion of Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE), however, comprehensive insights into the challenges identified and strategies developed remain scarce. This study analyses over 100 policies…
