Abstract. The article analyzes a study conducted by the Center for Innovation at the University of California, Los Angeles. A modern park affects not only the health and mood of city residents, but also its economy. Parks should master new technologies, infrastructure, experience and approaches. This article highlights innovative trends in the development of parks and green areas with the help of information society technologies. New technologies, including mapping geographic information systems and sensor networks, allow marketing research and user experience to be studied much deeper. With the spread of mobile Internet and other modern information technologies, «Smart Park» has become one of the development trends of tomorrow. A smart park is a new concept defined as a park that uses technology (environmental and digital) to achieve a range of values: equal access, community compliance, improved health, safety, sustainability, water and energy efficiency, and efficient operation and maintenance. The study is a collection of modern technologies used in parks and recreational areas. Some of the technologies shown are completely new, for others the novelty may lie in park use or in combination with newer technologies. The study describes each technology, how it fits into the park setting, why a park manager might decide to use the technology, and the challenges managers may face in implementing it. The study conducted face-to-face interviews with park managers and designers, landscape architects, city officials, and employees of non-profit park development organizations (to obtain information about technologies currently used in parks and potential technological opportunities).
