Identification of Smart City Readiness Indicators: A Literature Review

In order to avoid the failure of smart city implementation, it is necessary to measure smart city readiness beforehand. Currently, there is no standardization specifying which indicators should be involved in assessing a city's readiness before implementing a smart city. This research aims to identify which indicators and aspects can be measured to prepare smart cities. The methodology used is a literature review using PRISMA, with references published over the last decade. The results show that the measurement can be divided into two major aspects: technology and human aspects. The technological aspects include online services, waste management facilities, sensors and monitoring, command centers, and internet network readiness. The human aspect includes funding, policies, road facilities, education facilities, health facilities, public technological awareness, and regional community cooperation. The results of this research provide additional insights for smart city organizers in preparing their city's smartness.
