## Body

## 1. Introduction

Based on the connectivity provided by the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and the use of a variety of digital technologies such as cloud computing, big data, and artificial intelligence, Industry 4.0 is proposed as a new stage of industrial maturity [1, 2]. These technologies have produced an industrial method of automation and interconnection involving objects, products, and people, thus achieving a higher level of industrial performance [3]. With the application of engineering management in smart city construction under Industry 4.0, the intelligent design of urban street landscape also rises and develops rapidly. Meanwhile, “intelligent” development has become the new trend in modern society due to the advancement of information technology represented by the Internet. The smart city emerges in this context, which can detect, analyze, and integrate the key information of urban core operating systems using information and communication technologies, thus making intelligent responses to various needs covering people’s livelihood, environmental protection, public security, urban services, and industrial and commercial activities [4]. The intelligent urban management and operation relying on advanced information technologies can effectively solve the complex urban problems and promote the harmonious and sustainable urban development [5].As an important part of smart city construction, landscape architecture is also facing opportunities and challenges brought by the intelligent process. Smart gardens changing the construction, operation, and management modes of traditional gardens can effectively improve the efficiency in landscape garden industry, realizing the normalization, standardization, digitization, networking, and intelligence of garden construction [6]. The typical scenario of urban street landscape has significant effects on shaping the urban image. By selecting street landscape as the entry point of smart gardens, this paper aims to explore the needs of urban street landscape and discuss the intelligent system construction and implementation means, in order to provide reference for the construction of urban street intelligent systems [7, 8]. However, under Industry 4.0, in the process of intelligent city construction, how to effectively use new technologies such as big data and Internet of Things, as well as the interconnection between urban street landscapes after 5G network integration, has attracted people’s attention to the security and anti-network attack stability of these systems.

In the construction of urban street landscape intelligent system, “urban street” refers to the urban road equipped with sidewalks, municipal utilities, and various buildings on both sides in the overall length or most sections. As one of the subsystems under the future urban open complex giant system, the nature, function, form and structure of urban street are more complex than traditional urban road. Urban street serving as the most basic public urban space focuses on the citizens’ life and humanized experience, which facilitates the interpersonal communication and interactions via emotional sustenance as well as playing an irreplaceable role in shaping the urban charms and vitalizing the economic development [9, 10].Relying on the complex network theory and “Internet +” thinking, the smart landscape cooperates with new-generation information technologies such as Internet of Things, big data cloud computing, mobile Internet, remote sensing, and information intelligent terminal, obtains time-domain advantages, and responds quickly to social and natural activities carried in the landscape space. Integrating the spatial domain of modern ecological landscape into the large database achieves the intelligent connection between scattered social activities and needs of human beings, nature and landscape space for the interactive perception, and cognition and communication and improves the utilization and sharing rate of various scattered landscape resources, thus promoting the intelligent construction, service, and management of landscapes [11, 12].The design of intelligent street landscape systems shall be based on the comprehensive consideration of user needs, greening landscapes, and basic street functions, through the Internet of Things, web services, and virtualization technology. The basic attributes, characteristic parameters, status, and other information of various street landscape elements are dynamically and intelligently sensed and accessed in real time, to build street space intensively. Through processing the information perceived by the landscape intelligent system, data collection, integration, analysis, processing, and feedback are realized under the mapping of landscape resources in urban streets. On the premise of ensuring the basic functions of the road, people's travel safety, life, and social security should be guaranteed, which provides conditions for the scientific, rapid, comprehensive, and visual development of urban street landscape design and management.The construction of intelligent systems for urban street landscape based on complex network theory and the integration of smart landscape concept into the traditional urban street landscape indicate further improvement, which shall meet the requirements for intensive intelligent spaces, multiple interactive experience, and green ecology of energy conservation [13, 14].

## 4. Technical Means of Intelligent Systems for Urban Street Landscape

Intelligent technology refers to a specific technology or method used in the construction of an intelligent urban streetscape system. Internet of Things, spatial information integration, virtual reality and visualization technology, digital technology, etc. can solve the following problems in the construction of streetscape system under the condition of urban complex giant system:(1)
How to manage, digitize, and integrate information from scattered roads efficiently and precisely, in order to realize the effective distribution and dynamic overall grasp of the streetscape service capabilities.(2)
How to coordinate the relationship between the geographic space, data flow, time distribution, hardware network, and user needs of the streetscape intelligent system, in order to realize the spatial mapping between complex streetscape resources and intelligent system service capabilities [30].Emergence of the most representative IoT technology in the intelligent process has led the transformation of information age into an intelligent era. The all-inclusive IoT technology involving radio frequency identification (RFID), infrared sensor, and sensor-laser scanner solves numerous urban problems via interconnection of things after the Internet-based information connection [31].Spatial information reflects the spatial distribution characteristics of geographic entities, and the spatial information integration technology involving remote sensing (RS), geographic information system (GIS), and global positioning system (GPS) can reflect the topographical features of all sites more concretely and objectively at the macro level and achieve precise quantification and data digitization for in-depth research and analysis [32].VR technology integrates multiple techniques features in good experience of immersion, interaction, and conception, covering the real-time 3D computer graphics, 3D wide-angle (wide-field) display, tracking of the viewer’s head/eyes/hands, tactile/force feedback, stereo effects, network transmission, and voice input/output [33].The basic process of digitization involves the transformation of all complex and changeable information into measurable data, digital data modeling for binary code conversion, and input into the computer for unified processing [34]. At present, the digital technology is widely used in various industries, and the digitization serving as the predecessor of intelligent technologies shall be utilized continuously in the intelligent era.


## 5. Prospects of the Construction and Application of Intelligent Systems for Urban Street Landscape

To achieve the successful construction of street landscape intelligent systems, the mutual mapping of complex system and complex network of street landscape needs to be realized. Therefore, the above intelligent means must be implemented combined with the actual stages of street landscape construction in practice.


### 5.1. Planning and Design Stage

The early stage of planning and design provides direct guidance for the mid-term construction and post-management of landscape construction. The application of intelligent means such as the Internet of Things, virtual reality, and visualization technology at the planning and design stage can realize more scientific and rational street landscape design.In terms of on-site investigation, the traditional investigation methods have large workload and large error, and most of them are completed on the basis of on-site inspection and surveying and mapping, combined with the existing data. In addition, the traditional street design focusing on-site plane lacks the 3D-space and humanized thinking in terms of vertical design, construction scale, and detailed design. On the contrary, the intelligent landscape construction can realize the targeted integration of IoT and spatial information technologies into the site survey, with the precise positioning of street location and surrounding land uses utilizing the IoT sensing nodes [35]; moreover, the spatial information technology enables the designer to understand the connections between overall street appearance/style and urban image more comprehensively and accurately Figure 9.Figure 9
Application of intelligent technologies at the planning and design stage.


### 5.2. Construction Stage

The construction quality directly affects the smooth implementation of the preliminary design and the cost of later maintenance and management. Due to the problems of inaccurate calculation of quantities, unconstrained construction, and limited professional quality of most construction personnel in traditional garden construction, there are often some deficiencies in construction quality compared with the expected effect.The intelligent street landscape construction can ensure the rational resource allocation and construction efficiency through the in-depth survey of on-site environmental factors (e.g., soil quality, hydrological conditions, wind force, atmospheric pressure) using the sensing and RFID systems of IoT technology and the corresponding construction schemes and regulations. The application of spatial information integration technology and sensing system makes precise and rapid data positioning based on construction drawings possible at the stage of fixed point setting-out. The multispace model using VR technology enables the construction personnel to understand the design intention in an intuitive manner during construction, thus ensuring the realization of design effects. The application of IoT sensing system upon project acceptance for data measurement and quantitative analysis of engineering effects, combined with the direct data transmission to the auditor’s mobile devices using mobile Internet technology, guarantee the strict project acceptance [36], Figure 10.Figure 10

### 5.3. Green Plant Cultivation and Conservation Stage

Conservation management can maintain and guarantee the landscape effects after gardening construction. The traditional plant cultivation and conservation have certain shortcomings, e.g., unsatisfactory professional quality of management personnel and conservation measures of low technical contents.The intelligent plant cultivation and conservation integrating IoT technology ensure the effective improvement of conservation efficiency and effects with reduced cost. In order to make proper use of local conditions, the sensors shall be used to measure environmental factors (e.g., humidity and soil quality) at the cultivation stage, and the original manual sprinkling shall be replaced by the sprinkling/drip irrigation system with time-frequency sensors to detect the soil moisture and facilitate the intelligent control [37]. In terms of fertilization, winter protection, and wind protection, the digital model established based on the plant growth environment can realize the precise analysis of proper measures in different periods to ensure the normal plant growth and optimal effects Figure 11.Figure 11

## 6. Conclusion

Applying intelligent means in urban street landscape design and integrating street landscape intelligent system into smart city construction can actively promote urban development. Procedures starting from scheme design and project construction to maintenance management, technology introduction, and formulation of comprehensive and effective strategies are the key to the successful construction of street landscape intelligent system based on complex network.
