| Summary: | Smart built environment mapping is integrating Geospatial Artificial Intelligence (GeoAI) to enable advanced analysis, pattern recognition, and decision-making processes. This shift in understanding, planning, designing, and managing the built environment is paving the way for a smarter, more sustainable future. This commentary explores the current role of AI in enhancing technology use within the geospatial field, focusing specifically on the application of GeoAI in mapping the built environment. Additionally, the paper presents a selection of case studies related to the implementation of AI in developing automatic vectorization, particularly for geospatial mapping in built environments. This research demonstrates the effectiveness of using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models for sorting objects in scanned, old topographic maps of the built environment. The findings of this study are valuable for making informed decisions, devising effective strategies, and identifying opportunities for further research and exploration within the dynamic field of GeoAI in smart built environment mapping and applications. © 2024 Malaysian Institute Of Planners.
