Meet Valencia: the leader in smart city KPIs
12.05.2021
SafeValue must use [property]=binding: Firstly let us describe in a word what does Smart City’s conception means. It is the urban system connected by the IT technologies in one. Cameras, sensors, local computerized systems, neural networks, mobile applications, communication lines combined in one hub that improves city life and provides answers to all kinds of challenges of our city life. It is the future, guys, we are living in!
We love to consider various retrofuturistic conceptions, studying how our ancestors dreamed about their future that became ours nowadays. Valencia's way is the most progressive and realistic, and the result they got is impressive. Blog article frames don't allow us to describe all the fantastic features they implement, so we recommend: go to Valencia and see for yourself. Much more interesting how they did to get the leadership. The diagram below brightly illustrates the success story of the champions from Spain.
Since 2014 when the SmartCity strategy was defined, and the Smart Sustainable City model was developed, the standard UNE 178201 Smart Cities: Definition, Attributes, and Requirements were created. It was published and approved by the Spanish Standardization and Certification Association (AENOR) in 2016, and the job boiled. Thanks to UNE 178201, which defined a city's attributes and what requirements it should meet to be considered a smart city, Valencia's authorities got ISO 37120 Platinum Certification 99 KPIs. The municipality did not hesitate to collaborate with the United Nations specialized agency for Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) to define the criteria and self-assessment mechanisms that use KPIs to quantify ICTs' contribution achievement of urban development of smart cities. You should agree that globalization is not always pure evil. Sometimes global institutes do their job very well. As the result of this close activity was a reference framework aimed to help cities achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The guys from Valencia's Smart City Office did their best. The reference framework they made is based on measuring a city's intelligence and sustainability and fully comply with the United for Smart Sustainable Cities Initiative (U4SSC). ITU, UNECE, and 15 more UN partners that were involved keep the same point of view. Thus these KPIs stand as a reference framework for cities to define their efficiency and sustainability. Fantastic benchmark to compare themselves with other cities around the world! Use it, and you'll never be satisfied with your mayor's job.
The frenetic energy of the SmartCity guys who involved practically all municipal departments allowed València to become one of the first cities around the world to measure its progress towards the SDGs in a standardized way. The data that was collected fully comply with the U4SSC Collection Methodology. Those whoever is faced with the bureaucracy of the global organizations consider this point the most incredible.
The outstanding results of this process include 22 dimensions and 91 KPIs you can find on the U4SSC website and València's Smart City Office municipal website. Finally, we got the fundamental criteria blessed by the UN that allow building effective concrete working relations between SmartCity developers and their customers. (see http://g.co/ng/security#xss)
