Abstract(s)
Smart cities are an emerging concept around the world, a smart city is a city that mobilizes
and uses resources, namely social, cultural, financial, natural, information and
technology, to efficiently improve the quality of life of its inhabitants, workers, students
and other visitors.
Although the concept of smart city is not consensual, there are some aspects that are
common to the various definitions, namely, environment, use of information
technologies, knowledge and sustainable urban development.
The use of the "smart" concept captures innovative digital transformations driven by new
technological capabilities. However, other social factors besides smart technologies are
central to smart cities (Smith, 2022).
In Portugal we have cities and towns with very different attitudes and degrees of maturity
regarding urban intelligence (Neto, 2022).
There is no direct correlation between urban intelligence and its geographic location.
Urban intelligence does not depend on whether the city is located further to the coast or
further inland, it depends on the dynamism, creativity and innovation of each city, in the
implementation of good solutions.
Urban intelligence is increasingly dependent on the Internet of Things (IoT) and this is
the new technological period that will eloquently change the way people, cities and
"things" interact (Lopes et al, 2017).
Thus, this work aims to identify possible projects that Municipalities can
adopt/implement, so that cities become smarter, which will imply a better quality of life
for those who visit them and for those who live there, which can contribute to the
development of the interior. from the country.
