摘要

元宇宙旨在融合虚拟世界和现实世界。其目标是创建一个虚拟社区，在这个社区中，社交元素发挥着至关重要的作用，并将娱乐、工作、购物和服务等不同领域结合起来。在智慧城市的背景下，这一理念具有明确的吸引力。元宇宙提供了数字化方法，可以加强市民的社会社区。现有文献涵盖了智慧城市元宇宙应用的示范潜力，本研究旨在全面概述城市和市政背景下元宇宙应用的潜力和已实施情况。此外，还确定了与这些应用相关的挑战。本研究结合了文献综述和专家访谈，以确保提供广泛的概述。确定了来自 11 个领域的 48 个智慧城市元数据应用，来自 11 个城市的实际项目展示了当前的发展状况。不过，进一步的研究应评估各种应用的益处，并找到克服已发现挑战的策略。

Metaverse Meets Smart Cities—Applications, Benefits, and Challenges

The metaverse aims to merge the virtual and real worlds. The target is to generate a virtual community where social components play a crucial role and combine different areas such as entertainment, work, shopping, and services. This idea is explicitly appealing in the context of smart cities. The metaverse offers digitalization approaches and can strengthen citizens’ social community. While the existing literature covers the exemplary potential of smart city metaverse applications, this study aims to provide a comprehensive overview of the potential and already implemented metaverse applications in the context of cities and municipalities. In addition, challenges related to these applications are identified. The study combines literature reviews and expert interviews to ensure a broad overview. Forty-eight smart city metaverse applications from eleven areas were identified, and actual projects from eleven cities demonstrate the current state of development. Still, further research should evaluate the benefits of the various applications and find strategies to overcome the identified challenges.

期刊介绍： Future Internet is a scholarly open access journal which provides an advanced forum for science and research concerned with evolution of Internet technologies and related smart systems for “Net-Living” development. The general reference subject is therefore the evolution towards the future internet ecosystem, which is feeding a continuous, intensive, artificial transformation of the lived environment, for a widespread and significant improvement of well-being in all spheres of human life (private, public, professional). Included topics are: • advanced communications network infrastructures • evolution of internet basic services • internet of things • netted peripheral sensors • industrial internet • centralized and distributed data centers • embedded computing • cloud computing • software defined network functions and network virtualization • cloud-let and fog-computing • big data, open data and analytical tools • cyber-physical systems • network and distributed operating systems • web services • semantic structures and related software tools • artificial and augmented intelligence • augmented reality • system interoperability and flexible service composition • smart mission-critical system architectures • smart terminals and applications • pro-sumer tools for application design and development • cyber security compliance • privacy compliance • reliability compliance • dependability compliance • accountability compliance • trust compliance • technical quality of basic services.
