The notion of the smart city involves embedding Industry 4.0 technologies to improve the lives of inhabitants in urban environments. Within this context, smart city data layers (SCDLs) concern the integration of extra tiers of information for the purposes of improving communication potential. Under the Industry 4.0 technology grouping, advanced communication technologies, such as virtual reality (VR), further the opportunities to model, recreate, evaluate and communicate scenarios that potentially improve citizens lives at multiple SCDL scales in a smart cities context. The use of added contextual information in SCDLs is of special interest for emergency planning situations at the building scale. In this research, a literature review to understand the current approaches for the use, development and evaluation of VR applications in the context of emergency planning was conducted. The results indicated four main categories of relevant challenges for these types of applications, for which recommendations and a roadmap for VR development are presented. In total, the study identified 10 commonly occurring challenges (e.g., optimization and discomfort) and 19 solution directions (e.g., model construction and spatial directions) in related articles when considering the development of VR for spatial planning and emergency situations.

This study explores the intricate relationship between perceived smart tourism technology (STT) experiences and tourist satisfaction (TS), recognizing the pivotal role played by innovative technologies in shaping contemporary travel experiences. The research employs a comprehensive approach to assess how tourists' perceptions of smart technology, including factors such as informativeness, interactivity, and personalization, influence overall satisfaction. By utilizing SmartPLS, the study aims to uncover nuanced insights into the intricate dynamics that govern the interplay between perceived smart tourism technology and the satisfaction levels of modern tourists. The research methodology involves the collection of perceptual data from a diverse sample of tourists throughout India, encompassing various smart technology applications within the tourism sector. Employing sophisticated statistical analyses, including regression modeling and structural equation modeling, the study seeks to quantify the impact of different aspects of smart technology experiences on overall satisfaction. This research contributes to the evolving landscape of smart tourism technology by providing a robust and nuanced understanding of its role in shaping tourist satisfaction. The findings are expected to have practical implications for tourism industry stakeholders, informing strategic decisions regarding the integration and enhancement of smart technologies to optimize the overall tourist experience. Ultimately, this study advances the discourse on leveraging technology to meet the evolving expectations of modern tourists and underscores the importance of perceived smart tourism technology in driving satisfaction in the tourism sector.
