approaches.
Intelligent Services for Digital Cities 2013 - Trento's perspective about "Smart City" - ing. Giacomo Fioroni 32
“Collaboration & Sharing” Approach
» Crowdsourcing: a revolution for public notices that enable unknown populations to participate actively to decisions;
» Citizen sensing: a process that transforms citizens in sensors for sensible cities;
» Co-design methods: that allow citizens to take part to the planning of urban spaces and services;
» Gamification: a process that allows to use the videogames methods to reproduce and simulate the functions of cities and support decisional processes;
» Co-working: a process that is nearer to workers needs.
Intelligent Services for Digital Cities 2013 - Trento's perspective about "Smart City" - ing. Giacomo Fioroni 33
“Collaboration & Sharing” Approach
These new forms of collaboration and sharing – of risks, resources and financings – let emerge an important factor:
» the third sector (citizens, universities, all of you, etc...) becomes an important player for Smart City process.
In order to improve governance and cities performances, Mayors and local authorities:
» have to change their approach
» (and) have to work following the networks logics with a support from technologies.
Even in this case, thanks to the use of modern technology and the possibilities offered by networks, citizens can do better than local administrations if they are missing.
In South America, for example, volunteers paint cycle lanes and crosswalks that urban planners have forgot.
