Abstract The smart city is a concept that has begun to attract the interest of researchers. Smart cities connect people and places using technologies such as the internet of things, big data, etc. This study aims to capture the trends in smart city technologies in the COVID era by conducting a bibliometric analysis of scientific publications. We used the Scopus database to find the articles related to the topics from 2014 until now, or the number of articles studied is 225. We used Vos viewer software to process the results. This search visually demonstrates a complete overview of the field related to smart cities in terms of production, regular publications, the main field of smart city researchers, the most influential countries (institutions, sources, authors), and research directions in smart cities. We also present the most cited authors and the graphical linkage between the keywords that relate to smart cities. The bibliometric analysis of existing works has provided a valuable and fundamental reference for researchers and practitioners of research communities related to smart cities and technologies in the era of COVID-19. The results show a wide range of technologies used in smart cities in the COVID-19 era and the normal case. The bibliometric analysis shows that technologies in smart cities are a rapidly growing scientific field. In this sense, it lacks the social, cultural, and environmental intelligence necessary for urban innovation related to this research’s technologies. © 2024 selection and editorial matter, Yassine Maleh, Justin Zhang, and Abderrahim Hansali; individual chapters, the contributors.
