Abstract

Technological breakthroughs have radically changed the way people live. Gathering information has become faster, communication has grown wider and more accessible, and it is now possible to know what is happening in other parts of the world in real time. Additionally, new spatial dimensions of interaction have emerged through virtual communities. Concepts such as hyperconnectivity, Big data, and the Internet of Things have arisen from the sophisticated generation, processing, and exploitation of information. Many nouns have been qualified as "intelligent", including cellphones, televisions, automobiles, governments, houses, territories, and even cities. But how do we design an intelligent city? The development of tools that adapt urban design to this new category of cities and that allow urban decision-making to be taken into account is fundamental. This document aims to contribute to the urban city discussion and propose an adequate design method tailored to its characteristics. A first version of this work was published in the magazine "Legado" from the Autonomous University of the State of Mexico in 2019. Now, an updated version is presented, incorporating all urban planning exercises put into practice during the period 2019 - 2023.
