Descrizione del progetto
Aiutare le città a far fronte alle sfide dinamiche dello spazio
Risulta sempre più urgente che le città si orientino verso soluzioni sostenibili, in grado di allinearsi con gli obiettivi climatici dell’UE. Lo scopo principale del progetto SPACE4Cities, finanziato dall’UE, è quello di incoraggiare una gestione migliore e più dinamica degli spazi pubblici in modo da aiutare le città e le regioni ad adattarsi ai requisiti in rapida evoluzione delle infrastrutture di trasporto, degli spazi aperti e della manutenzione cittadina, nonché da aumentare la loro resilienza per far fronte al verificarsi di dirompenti eventi estremi. Grazie allo sfruttamento intelligente delle tecnologie spaziali e dei dati satellitari, il progetto si propone di costruire soluzioni replicabili per la gestione dinamica delle aree pubbliche e una chiara tabella di marcia per l’implementazione a livello europeo di tali soluzioni basate sui dati spaziali.
Obiettivo
SPACE4Cities will dynamise the uptake of space-based solutions for dynamic use and management of public space. This is an area of smart city development which is currently lagging behind in digital transformation when compared to parallel domains of similar economic and social importance. Cities are at the forefront of fighting todays grand societal challenges, as they consume 75% of the natural resources, 78% of the worlds energy, produce 50% of the global waste, and emit 60-80% of the greenhouse gases. Yet, they account for less than 2% of the Earths surface. Therefore, SPACE4Cities project predominantly targets cities and densely populated regions.
Cities face increasing pressure to tackle their climate challenges and to utilise their existing assets more efficiently, while at the same time be more agile in reacting to constant change from climate events and other factors. In effect, cities need to be more dynamic and more resilient. However, currently, cities are not able to manage their public space (on ground and in air) in an agile manner that would adequately support the increasing amount of different types of needs. If the management of areas is to become dynamic, it has to be based on dynamic data assets.
This project strives for better, more dynamic management of public spaces, answering a concrete need for cities and regions to be able to adapt to fast-changing requirements for transport infrastructure, open spaces and city maintenance, and to increase their resilience to cope with extreme and disruptive events. Via smart exploitation of space data, the SPACE4Cities project aims to build replicable solutions for the dynamic management of public areas, and a clear roadmap for Europe-wide implementation of such space data-based solutions.
