Dubrovnik is a UNESCO World Heritage walled city on Croatia's Adriatic coast, whose historic core draws cruise-ship and tourist volumes far beyond what its narrow streets were built for. Its smart-city record targets that pressure directly: a citywide sensor network for real-time parking guidance since 2018, and — after years of UNESCO overtourism warnings — an ANPR-based access-control zone around the Old Town since 2025.

• 🇦🇪 Dubai: RTA Smart Parking: Sensor-Guided Vacant-Space Finder Both NB-IoT parking pilots from the mid-2010s evolved further: Dubrovnik added ANPR access control in 2025, Dubai's sensors retired in 2023.
• 🇪🇸 Barcelona: ApparkB Regulated Parking Payment & Prediction Opposite parking bets: Dubrovnik still runs 1,900+ physical sensors since 2018; Barcelona's ApparkB predicts space from payment data alone.
