Global Internet of Things (IoT) Market in Public Sector Size and Forecast by Component Type, Connectivity Technology, Application, Government Entity and Region: 2019-2034

---

Industry Findings: Governments continue expanding connected infrastructure deployments to strengthen urban management, public safety, transportation monitoring, and digital service delivery across municipal environments. IoT-enabled systems increasingly support traffic management, environmental monitoring, emergency response coordination, and energy optimization as cities modernize aging infrastructure. Public sector investment also continues rising because national digitization strategies now prioritize operational efficiency, sustainability targets, and real-time civic data management. In 2024, the United States continued federal smart infrastructure funding activity under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, supporting connected transportation systems, utility modernization, and digital public infrastructure programs across multiple states. As per our assessment, these investments are accelerating adoption of connected monitoring platforms, intelligent infrastructure systems, and edge-enabled analytics across public sector environments.
