Abstract
In order to clearly evaluate city intelligence capabilities for the construction of smart-city spatiotemporal information cloud platforms and evaluate their effectiveness, this study proposed a general framework and evaluation elements for construction evaluation-index systems suited for such platforms. Tests for selected cities were scored so that they may provide support for smart-city construction. This study was according to in accordance with the National Evaluation-Index Systems of Smart Cities and its requirements for the establishment of departmental evaluation indices. According to the test results, we modified and improved the indices. This may now be used to guide and promote cities to conduct construction of spatiotemporal information cloud platforms in a purposeful, well-planned, and step-by-step manner.
Highlights
Since the initiation of pilot construction of the spatiotemporal information cloud platform of smart cities by the National Administration of Surveying, Mapping, and Geo information (NASMG) in 2012, more than 30 cities have been chosen as pilot cities to construct smart-city spatiotemporal information cloud platforms
The regulations and files released by China provide a general framework and a standard scheme for the research of construction evaluation-index systems suited for smart-city spatiotemporal information cloud platforms, the selection of evaluation indices and the determination of evaluation methods requirements need to be closely linked to the construction content of the smart-city spatiotemporal information cloud platforms
According to the General Framework of Smart-city EvaluationIndex Systems and the General Requirement for the Establishment of Each Sub-item in Smart-city Evaluation-Index Systems in conjunction with the Technical Outline of Construction of Smart-city Spatiotemporal Information Cloud Platforms, we thoroughly considered the features of smartcity spatiotemporal information cloud platforms and determined the Evaluation-Index Systems of smart-city spatiotemporal information cloud platforms to consist of 7 primary indices and 41 secondary indices
Summary
Since the initiation of pilot construction of the spatiotemporal information cloud platform of smart cities by the National Administration of Surveying, Mapping, and Geo information (NASMG) in 2012, more than 30 cities have been chosen as pilot cities to construct smart-city spatiotemporal information cloud platforms. Some cities with a good construction foundation for a digital-city geospatial framework have been committed to transforming themselves into smart cities by upgrading platforms, deepening applications, and conducting intelligent constructions [1]. According to the 2016 NASMG working conference report of surveying, mapping, and geo information, digital-city construction has been widely initiated in all the 333 prefecture-level cities and 476 county-level cities nationwide. These cities are committed to promoting an upgrade from digital cities to smart cities [2]. By doing so will the construction adhere to the plan and lead to a tangible outcome
