| Sumario: | The urban environment has been permeated by important changes arising from the phenomenon of urbanization. Such phenomenon generates some of the main problems of contemporary cities, in the social, environmental and economic dimensions. Thus, planning and managing cities has been a challenge for public managers. An initiative that seeks to assist in this process is the concept of smart cities, which uses ICT as agents of transformation in the urban environment. One of the tools derived from this concept is the use of indicators to measure services and infrastructure in cities. In this sense, the objective of this article is to analyze the urban indicators of environment of the city of Passo Fundo. In the methodology, the indicators of the Ranking Connected Smart Cities were used as a reference, as well as a regional section of the medium-sized cities best classified in the ranking. The results show that most of the Passo Fundo indices are lower than those of the cities analyzed. However, the city has satisfactory rates, such as total urban service in water supply, and 98.1% coverage of solid waste collection, which are important initiatives in the quest to become a more intelligent and sustainable city. |
