Description
The big potential, which lies in the use of data (and it's analyses) as a fundament of decision-making, is not yet exhausted.The SmartGov project aims at strengthening urban governance in smart cities. Linked open data and data collected from social media will flow into Fuzzy Cognitive Maps (FCMs), which enable the simulation of conceivable action alternatives, of which scenarios can be derived, to support urban governments in decision-making. In advance, possible implications of certain decisions shall thereby be recognizable in an improved way. Additionally, communication between citizens, government resp. decision-makers and stakeholders in smart cities shall be optimized through the integrated social media engine. Attention will as well be paid on the to-be-developed tools being in line with the legal framework.
