Abstract

In this paper, the author defines the roadmap to develop, test and apply a universal Tableau de Bord to measure smart performance in urban space. Smart cities are an emerging urban strategy, but they are moving bottom-up and therefore they lack of a governance framework, able both to support decisions and investments, and to evaluate goal reaching, performance, and economic and social impact of smart city. The Urban Tableau de Bord is a comprehensive framework designed to link quantitative and qualitative indicators to a specific smart city strategy. The roadmap explores the steps to pursue to implement this framework, selecting the most suitable indicators, using urban statistical data already available in the municipal database, designing a software to realize a Smart City Intelligence System and defining the scalability of this system to support also further enlargement of smart city initiatives.
