In the Smart Cities project, MEMORI wrote a Framework paper, describing the ‘smart digital city’ in 10 characteristics. Based on this framework paper a self assessment tool was developed, allowing the Smart Cities project partners to define their goals and evaluate their developments in the digitization of their services. This presentation describes and summarizes the framework paper and assessment tool and its results.
