Smart cities' developmental capacities in the fields of spatial planning and construction - lessons from Copenhagen to Belgrade

Abstract

This paper focuses on smart cities’ capacities to improve quality of public services and decision making in all policy fields, with open data and co-production. Spatial planning and construction are chosen for research as vitally connected with economy and sustainable development. Research methods are: the analysis of existing studies, the comparison of Copenhagen as smart city, and Belgrade, which can learn from good practice (case studies). Main recommendations: change in values, in priorities and patterns of behavior.
