Riyadh being the capital city of Saudi Arabia possesses all the government ministries/organizations such as large, Healthcare cities, business and trading companies and other significant statutory figures and thus creates a huge motivation for the necessity of Smart city that allows every single citizen and visitor to connect to this Smart city using their smart devices and perhaps is the easiest approach to get familiar to everything they need. The system allows all the people to have information about the locations of ministries with working hours on different days, public transports details, type of places and whether they are located, indoor or outdoor. The system developed will be able to locate and provide pictures of the locations that the users requested through the services offered through the Smart City interface (SCI).
