Resumo: Cities are becoming overcrowded, therefore city administrations have to adopt measures to improve city processes and living conditions. The purpose of the present work is to find a tool which cities throughout the globe can use to measure its Smart City level and identifying areas of action in terms of urban planning and the politics they shall promote. Unlike other indexes, this tool have into consideration citizen’s opinion, because a Smart City shall be the city which promotes the better quality of life for its citizens. Through an inquiry, citizens are asked to evaluate and prioritize the different KPIs and Sub Dimensions, having these data been based on different sources of information (literature, state of the art of observed real facts and benchmarking work). The results have contributed to the calculation of the different coefficients and after that as inputs for the formulation of the equation that will define the Smart City index of a city.

O objetivo do presente trabalho é encontrar uma ferramenta que permita às cidades em todo o mundo medir o nível de inteligência das mesmas, identificando desta forma áreas de atuação em termos de planeamento urbano e políticas a fomentar. Ao contrário de outros rankings/índices, esta ferramenta terá em consideração a opinião do cidadão, uma vez que uma Cidade Inteligente é aquela que promove o melhor nível de qualidade de vida aos seus cidadãos. Através de um inquérito conduzido por questionário, alguns cidadãos foram convidados a avaliar e priorizar um conjunto de diferentes KPIs e respetivas subdimensões, tendo estes sido encontrados com base em diferentes fontes de informação (literatura, estado da arte de factos reais observados e trabalho de benchmarking). Os resultados contribuíram para o cálculo de coeficientes que, por sua vez, representaram inputs para a formulação da expressão que poderá definir o índice de uma Cidade Inteligente.2018-11-05T14:25:07Z2018-07-24T00:00:00Z2018-07-24info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10773/24558TID:202235815engCorreia, Diogo Miguel Mendesinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-02-22T11:48:01Zoai:ria.ua.pt:10773/24558Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T02:58:07.581406Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
