Abstract
Public parks are considered one of the most important uses of land in cities, they are spaces that contribute to achieving resilience by purifying the urban environment of carbon emissions and air pollution. Recreational activities also contribute to achieving psychological and physical satisfaction for their visitors. The development of technologies and the emergence of a new concept called smart parks that rely on modern technologies to save energy increase contribution to achieving resilience for the city. The research aims to identify the extent to which smart parks contribute to achieving resilience in cities, through an analysis of some experiences of smart parks at the global and regional levels. Use inductive approach was followed by identifying the difference between traditional parks and smart parks, the theoretical foundations of designing public parks and smart parks, and the various standards and foundations that would govern smart parks. Then, the analytical approach was followed in the research by analyzing global and regional models of smart parks. The study will first clarify the goal and criteria for selecting these smart parks and the methodology for analyzing them. After that, the park will be introduced, along with its location, then the smart elements and technologies for each park will be analyzed, and the conclusions will be clarified according to the main dimensions and value criteria of the smart park, and the extent to which each of these smart parks will contribute to achieving resilience through applications of integrated, smart, and green infrastructure systems will be explained.
