THE SMART CITY ANALYSIS OF THE SURROUNDINGS OF MÓSTOLES STREET IN FUENLABRADA (MADRID) AND PROPOSALS FOR ITS IMPROVEMENT IN AN INTELLIGENT AND SUSTAINABLE WAY

Abstract

A citizen participation project is presented to make the city of residence of the students who participate in it more sustainable thanks to technology. The project falls within the STEM disciplines (which relate Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) and is carried out in a Secondary Education group at the Gaspar Melchor de Jovellanos Institute in Fuenlabrada (Madrid). The proposal consists of analyzing the neighborhood where the students live and proposing improvements to make it more accessible, sustainable, comfortable and so on. These improvements fall within what we would call “smart city”, since through smart devices we can make our lives easier. This is a complete course project with different phases of analysis, research, documentation, planning, construction and evaluation, which materializes in a scale model of the neighborhood with smart devices, which as a final culmination will be presented in a radio program Fuenlabrada, with the idea that it be taken into account for the urban development of this city.
