Abstract
Sensing Change in the Smart City

Many municipalities are already Smart Cities, effectively utilising information collected and processed by social intelligence in smart construction, security, traffic, infrastructure management, energy and emergency response. Others are starting to develop their strategy for becoming “smart.” Claudio Mingrino will present how Hexagon and Hexagon Geospatial support such cities in their challenges and projects. Focusing on a specific concept, he will describe a unique co-design and management methodology built upon a geospatially based framework and DSS. This structure enables planners, policy makers and city users to collaborate efficiently with one another. These were some of the important factors that prompted several Italian municipalities to officially endorse this methodology. The Smart City paradigms are played out by this method, which defines a correlation matrix of the nine domains defined by the Italian National Digital Agenda and four fruition figures (citizens, tourists, private traders and institutional operators). Come and see how the technologies of Hexagon and Hexagon Geospatial are uniquely positioned to facilitate the implementation of new and modern Smart, and even Smarter, Cities.
