Abstract
The fast urban development leads to many complex problems. A smart city aims to solve these problems using scientific approaches. Urban Green Space (UGS) is a fundamental component of urban infrastructure. It needs to be upgraded simultaneously with the concept of the smart city. Methods of smart UGS planning and sustainable landscape design help integrate ecological performance and other functions of UGS. Smart UGS planning is a technical management tool and a human‐centered smart application. A novel UGS classification method based on function combinations is proposed in the present work. Five types of UGS (Scenic UGS, Residential UGS, Commercial UGS, Office UGS, and Road UGS) in Baqiao District of Xi’an, Shaanxi Province, are selected as sample sites. Interviewees’ socio‐economic attributes, visiting frequencies, and differences in demands are investigated. Eventually, the UGSs researched in this work are optimized based on public preferences and the current conditions of the sites. Results demonstrate the following. (1) The public’s preference for different types of UGS is different considerably. (2) Based on the public’s preference, Scenic UGS is improved in terms of quantity, function, and management; Residential UGS is upgraded regarding quantity and accessibility; and Commercial UGS, Office UGS, and Road UGS are improved in terms of quality. The results could provide methodological references for planning different types of UGS and innovative insights for smart UGS planning and sustainable landscape design.

While the public gradually realizes the importance of ecological civilization, the initial environmental demand has been upgraded to the urban environmental demand coordinated with society, economy, and ecological environment. is demand matches the essential pursuit of the smart city
Summary
Accelerated urbanization has produced many tricky problems. A smart city aims to solve these problems using intelligent approaches, achieving sustainable development [1]. Under the sustainable development strategy, the premise of UGS planning and design is to coordinate the Complexity relationships among population, economy, resources, and the environment so that public space planning can be in a virtuous circle. Explorations about green space planning and sustainable landscape design in smart cities are still at the preliminary stage. Is proposal reveals the impact of urban construction on livability and the pursuit of sustainable development In the meantime, it puts forward higher requirements for UGS’s service levels. UGS planning based on residents’ demands can promote smart city construction and sustainable UGS development in Xi’an. E innovative point is the UGS planning strategies that meet the regional characteristics and consider residents’ demands, and urban development policies are proposed from a sustainable perspective, providing methodological references for planning different types of UGS and innovative insights for smart UGS planning and sustainable landscape design UGS planning based on residents’ demands can promote smart city construction and sustainable UGS development in Xi’an. e innovative point is the UGS planning strategies that meet the regional characteristics and consider residents’ demands, and urban development policies are proposed from a sustainable perspective, providing methodological references for planning different types of UGS and innovative insights for smart UGS planning and sustainable landscape design
