Analysis

We analized the needs of each category of users of the city. The needs are also divided in groups according to the dimensions of the Smart City. 

We gave a score of importance from 1 to 5 to each dimension of needs for every category.

We then calculated the average importance of each kind of need

but HOW does flexibility fulfil these needs?

We linked the smartness dimensions to the flexibility pillars based on how we thought that they could relate to each other. 

The flexibility pillars of “time” and “organization” relate to people and change, the others relate more to space and therefore to planning.

 

SPACE

 

Based on the links that we established between the needs of smart cities and a flexible way of planning, and  on our previous analysis of smart needs  for categories of people, we identified which flexibility elements were most suitable for satisfying the needs of each category of users.
