Summer 2016 European Energy Innovation
DATASETS
The datasets relevant for the CITYkeys
KPIs were identified and analysed on
the basis of their availability, sources, publicly accessible but not as ‘open
reliability, data access methods,
existing data formats, and level of
confidentiality (http://bit.ly/1Vrnq03).
During this process, special attention
was paid to open datasets.
In January 2016, the availability rates
in the partner cities for the datasets
needed by smart city KPIs were as
follows: Zaragoza 82%, Vienna 80%,
Tampere 77%, Rotterdam 71% and
Zagreb 52%. The average rate was
72%. The availability rate for open data
varied between 1% and 25%, and was
15% on average.
In total, 116 raw, unprocessed datasets
are needed to compile smart city KPIs.

SMART CITIES
Roughly 85% of these sets were either
available in the municipal databases
or needed to be generated or were
data’. The availability of around 13%
of the required datasets remains a
challenge.
In general, the participating cities are partners and stakeholders are all keenly
urged to automate their data collection
processes as well as the way they feed
data into the monitoring framework.
The idea is to help cities benefit more
from the project and also to increase
their contribution to the sustainability to come. l
of CITYkeys results beyond the project’s
termination.
As a next step, CITYkeys will develop
and offer the proposed architecture
of a framework for performance
measurement. This way, smart cities
across Europe will be able to identify
and implement the basic ingredients
needed for the implementation of
an efficient monitoring and decision
making system based on city data.
The CITYkeys project will formally
conclude on 31 January 2017. The
aware of the pervasive and powerful
role measurement plays in project
management. They have a crucial
role to play in how smart cities across
Europe expand and evolve in the years
