Along with
industrialization and technological development in cities, horizontal and
vertical construction is increasing. With this construction, impermeable
surface area increases, urban heat island effect is seen, and negative effects
of climate change are felt more. One of the focal issues for those seeking
solutions against all these effects is green infrastructures. Green
infrastructures are an important issue for smart and sustainable cities with
their multifunctional features such as ecological, economic, social and health.
University campuses resemble cities with their buildings, roads and green
areas. Campuses are important areas for sustainability with their area sizes,
amount of energy and water used, waste, transportation and open green areas.
The aim of the study is to indicate the importance of green infrastructure
applications for the smart city approach. Within the framework of examining the
concepts of smart city, green infrastructure and sustainable campus in the
literature, Yıldız Technical University Davutpaşa Campus smart green campus
applications are evaluated. The campus stands out with its water and energy
management, biodiversity, waste, transportation and increasing green areas for
reducing impermeable surfaces. With these physical features, there are smart applications
for campus residents. Campuses are small residential areas that can serve as
examples for smart cities.
