It is a digital infrastructure capable of integrating the technologies already implemented in the municipality: the city is already equipped with a wide range of devices and sensors, but the benefits of all these technologies are so far marginal, as they produce a huge amount of unrelated data that is too complicated to process and results in a significant waste of time, money and resources.<\/p>\nAt the end of the Urban Agenda project consultations, the choice of the city of Perugia fell on WiseTown and its smart city enabling infrastructure, based on FIWARE<\/a><\/strong> technology and capable of responding to new infrastructure needs.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>technological innovation for the city<\/h2><\/div>For the city of Perugia, WiseTown integrates its software infrastructure within existing systems in order to manage large amounts of data from different sources such<\/strong> as geographic information systems, satellite imagery, IoT sensors, Open Data and other existing services giving access to a single intelligent system for data management and analysis.<\/p>\nThe use of WiseTown within the municipality’s control and data management systems aligns Perugia with the technological tools available in European capitals<\/strong>.

The city of Perugia is thus equipped with a range of solutions already approved at European level, with standardization that leads to optimization of costs and resources, harmonization of technologies, and achievement of service quality levels in line with the policies of large European cities.<\/p>\n
In the relationship between the community and the administration, WiseTown brings considerable benefits, allowing the adoption of useful tools to respond effectively<\/strong> and efficiently to the needs of citizens and to stimulate forms of active participation in the social and political life of the city<\/strong>. Among the many services offered, there is also the development of an App for reporting critical issues, thanks to which the citizen becomes the spokesperson for the city’s problems, generating an “issue” that is automatically converted into a “task” and assigned to the right department of the administration.

Objective 9 therefore aims to build resilient infrastructure, promote industrialisation and foster innovation. Increased resource efficiency and greater adoption of clean and environmentally friendly technologies and industrial processes are needed to make infrastructure and industries sustainable by 2030.<\/p>\n
The use of innovative technologies in cities makes it possible to formulate infrastructural and digital services that monitor people’s movements in order to respond promptly to critical situations and ensure safety, security and efficiency for the population. In addition, the involvement of inhabitants in the organisational dynamics of cities and in the construction of efficient infrastructures and services enables all-round social inclusion that makes citizens responsible for their own well-being and stimulates a dynamic and participatory dialogue with institutions.<\/p>\n
CONTRIBUTES TO THE FOLLOWING SUB-OBJECTIVES<\/p>\n
9.1: Develop the quality of infrastructure by making it reliable, sustainable and resilient, including regional and cross-border infrastructure, to support economic development and human well-being, with a focus on equitable access for all
\n9.4: By 2030, upgrading infrastructure industries and making them sustainable, with greater efficiency of resources to be used and increased adoption of clean and environmentally friendly technologies and industrial processes, in accordance with countries’ respective capabilities
\n9.5: Improving scientific research, enhancing the technological capabilities of industrial sectors in all countries, particularly developing countries, by 2030, encouraging innovation and significantly increasing the number of R&D workers.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

More than half of the world’s population lives in cities, a percentage that is expected to increase to 70% by 2050. It is cities that drive local and national economies, as centres of prosperity where more than 80% of global economic activity is concentrated.
\nNew technologies make it possible to build a network to monitor mobility and people flows, to ensure safe and integrated coordination of cities during times of conviviality and cohesion. The benefits are numerous: they affect the economic apparatus of the territory, helping to provide access to safe, accessible transport systems; they achieve integrated and sustainable urbanisation, providing universal access to safe public spaces; they enhance understanding of cultural heritage.<\/p>\nCONTRIBUTES TO THE FOLLOWING SUB-GOALS:<\/p>\n
11.2: By 2030, provide access to safe, accessible, and sustainable transport systems for all, improve road safety, in particular by expanding public transport, with particular attention to the needs of those in vulnerable situations, women, children, persons with disabilities and the elderly
\n11.3: By 2030, improve inclusive and sustainable urbanisation and capacity for participatory, integrated and sustainable human settlement planning and management in all countries
\n11.7: By 2030, provide universal access to safe, inclusive and accessible green and public spaces, particularly for women and children, older people and people with disabilities
