With the rapid development ofinformation and computing technologies (ICT), cities may be made smarter by embedding ICT intotheir infrastructure. By smarter, we mean that the city operation will be more efficient, cost-effective,energy-saving, be more connected, more secure, and more environmentally friendly. As such, a smartcity is typically defined as a city that has a strong integration with ICT in all its components, includingits physical components, social components, and business components [1,2].展开更多

Focusing on rapid urbanization and escalating climate challenges, the research analyzed how smart city frameworks, aligned with climate neutrality objectives, leverage geospatial technologies for urban planning and climate action. The study included case studies from three leading European cities, extracting lessons and best practices in implementing Climate City Contracts across sectors like energy, transport, and waste management. These insights highlighted the essential role of EU and national authorities in providing technical, regulatory, and financial support. Additionally, the paper presented the application of a WEBGIS platform in Limassol Municipality, Cyprus, demonstrating citizen engagement and acceptance of the proposed geospatial framework. Concluding with recommendations for future research, the study contributed significant insights into the advancement of urban sustainability and the effectiveness of geospatial technologies in smart city initiatives for combating climate change.展开更多
