Approach

The path to transform cities into Smart Cities cannot be done by municipalities alone. It is necessary to create large-scale projects that can involve all the various stakeholders (organizations / companies / institutions) of the cities and citizens too, to propose innovative solutions based on the real needs of the communities.

Polis 2020 is a research project aimed at creating a platform that provides city decision-makers, citizens and public officials with technological and methodological tools that can foster the interaction between them and the development of new solutions for cities. In this way, it is possible to enhance the digital transformation of the city, through open innovation processes and with the continuous involvement of many stakeholders.

Solution

The project develops innovative tools which fall into four main dimensions:

  • Tools related to the Social Dimension: to collect and analyse ideas and territorial needs, to participate to decisions concerning the city, to provide citizens with multi-channel services
  • Tools for the Administrative dimension: to simplify Public Administration's processes, to model, manage and evaluate processes for multiple stakeholders
  • Tools for the economic dimension: to create a dynamic environment from an economic point of view, to define and simulate complex sustainability models
  • Tools for the Physical Dimension: for the collection, exploration, processing and analysis of data, for info display, segmentation, use.
