Sii‐Mobility

Obiettivi Generali (sintesi)
• ridurre i costi sociali della mobilità
per le persone
– consentendo minori disagi, maggiore
efficienza,
– maggiore sensibilità verso le
necessità del cittadino,
– minori emissioni, migliori condizioni
ambientali;
– percorsi info‐formativi in modo che il
cittadino cambi le abitudini non
virtuose;
– ridurre i costi di trasporto ed i tempi
di percorrenza per gli utenti, per i
gestori e le amministrazioni, tramite
soluzioni di ottimizzazione.
• semplificare l’uso dei sistemi di
mobilità
– sensori innovativi per AVM e mezzi
privati sul territorio
– Sistemi integrati di pagamento e di
identificazione
– soluzioni di guida/percorso connesso
(connect drive, smart drive o walk)
– Integrazione di dati provenienti da
gestori e sorgenti di tipo diverso
– Gestione avanzata di mezzi
– misurazione di flussi
– realizzazione di sensori, attuatori
• Sperimentazione su comuni e province della Toscana
• Contribuire al miglioramento degli standard nazionali ed internazionali

• Develop European Resilience Management
Guidelines (ERMG)
– Develop a conceptual framework for creating/
maintaining Urban Transport Systems
• Enhance resilience through improved support of
human decision making processes, particularly by
training professionals and civil users on the ERMG
and the RESOLUTE system
• Operationalize and validate the ERMG by
implementing the RESOLUTE Collaborative
Resilience Assessment and Management Support
Systems (CRAMSS) for Urban Transport Systems
addressing Road and Urban Rail Infrastructures
– Pilots in Florence and Athens
• Adoption of the ERMG at EU and Associated
Countries level

• demonstrate Smart City technologies in energy,
transport and ICT in districts in:
– San Sebastian, Florence and Bristol,
– follower cities of Essen, Nilufer and Lausanne
• Cities are the customer: considering local
specificities
• Solutions must be replicable, interoperable and
scalable.
– Integrated Infrastructure: deployment of ICT
architecture, from internet of things to
applications
– Low energy districts
– Urban mobility: sustainable and smart urban
