Abstract: This article addresses the application of information and communication technologies in the development of smart cities with a focus on urban planning. With rapid urban growth, significant challenges arise, such as the need for efficient infrastructure, quality public services, and environmental sustainability. Smart cities aim to tackle these challenges by utilizing technologies such as sensors, big data, the Internet of Things (IoT), and artificial intelligence (AI) to optimize urban resources and improve the quality of life for citizens. The study conducted a bibliometric analysis to map the scientific production on smart cities and urban planning, identifying trends, focus areas, and the use of key concepts. Additionally, the study identifies the main research areas related to smart cities, such as environmental sciences, urban studies, engineering, and computer science. The analysis of keywords and emerging trends in the literature offers a detailed view of research priorities and the gaps that still need to be filled. The article concludes with recommendations for future research and smart urban planning practices, emphasizing the importance of integrated and collaborative public policies.
