智能基础设施研究议程上的农村镜头
A Rural Lens on a Research Agenda for Intelligent Infrastructure
摘要:
如果不明确考虑农村社区的需求,智能基础设施国家议程是不完整的。虽然美国人口已经城市化,但美国的农业、渔业、林业、制造业和采矿业依赖于农村社区。大约20%的美国人口生活在农村地区,并向老年人倾斜。此外,近25%的退伍军人生活在美国农村。然而,当智能基础设施被想象出来时,它往往是以隐含或明确的城市偏见来实现的。在这份简报中,我们描述了农村社区的独特机会,并提供了智能基础设施研究的包容性愿景。在本文中,我们主张采取一系列协调一致的行动,以确保美国农村地区在这场数字革命中不会落后。这些技术平台和应用,在适当政策的支持下,将解决交通、能源、农业、公共安全和健康方面的关键问题。我们相信,美国农村地区并不是一系列的需求,而是一系列令人兴奋的创新可能性,不仅有利于那里的居民,而且有利于更广泛的美国经济
英文摘要:
A National Agenda for Intelligent Infrastructure is not complete without explicit consideration of the needs of rural communities. While the American population has urbanized, the United States depends on rural communities for agriculture, fishing, forestry, manufacturing and mining. Approximately 20% of the US population lives in rural areas with a skew towards aging adults. Further, nearly 25% of Veterans live in rural America. And yet, when intelligent infrastructure is imagined, it is often done so with implicit or explicit bias towards cities. In this brief we describe the unique opportunities for rural communities and offer an inclusive vision of intelligent infrastructure research. In this paper, we argue for a set of coordinated actions to ensure that rural Americans are not left behind in this digital revolution. These technological platforms and applications, supported by appropriate policy, will address key issues in transportation, energy, agriculture, public safety and health. We believe that rather than being a set of needs, the rural United States presents a set of exciting possibilities for novel innovation benefiting not just those living there, but the American economy more broadly
