Abstract:
Under the background of a new round of scientific and technological revolution and the demand for green development, the impacts of smart technology have penetrated into different aspects of urban ecological space, bringing opportunities and challenges to the research and governance of urban ecological space in the new era. This paper sorts out the impact of current smart technology on urban ecological space from three aspects: spatial organization structure, ecosystem services, and spatial governance mode. Then, we interpret the impact pathways of smart technology on urban ecological space. Finally, the characteristics and mechanisms of urban ecological space under the influence of smart technology, as well as the governance modes of urban ecological space empowered by smart technology, are proposed as the research framework in the future. This paper enriches the theoretical research of urban ecological space, and provides new ideas and methods for urban ecological space governance.
