Urban spaces are mainly designed for people to improve their quality of life by encouraging
physical activity and social interaction. However, digital and smart technologies are now regarded
as the primary supporter of any development, particularly in urban spaces, because it drives
development in three areas: the development of materials, systems, and tools, which comprise the
smart urban space.
Purpose: The paper explore the different technological qualities forming smart sustainable urban
spaces through identifying the different dimensions which must be followed to achieve a proposed
framework for creating and developing smart sustainable urban spaces.
Argument: The paper focuses on the technological qualities forming smart sustainable urban
spaces and their different dimensions, through literature review. In addition to studying and
identifying the different technologies configuring smart sustainable urban spaces to reach the
relation between the main qualities which form smart sustainable urban spaces, their different
dimensions, the digital tools and smart technologies.
Findings: A proposed framework will be conducted to explore the relation between the main
qualities which form smart sustainable urban spaces, their different dimensions, the digital tools
and smart technologies to create smart sustainable urban spaces.
