The whole process of converting a city into the new concept of Smart City implies the improvement of the efficiency and quality of services made available by governments and businesses and a corresponding increase in citizens' quality of life. This process requires a series of actions that include data collection, processing and use of this information for its dissemination among citizens. For example, it is necessary to promote the use and reuse of information from the government or private entities as open data and therefore made more useful and appropriate for citizens. Technologies such as sensor networks, ubiquity, connectivity infrastructure-vehicles and others, become essential elements to achieve this goal. In this paper we present some relevant aspects related to these lines of action in a Smart City and their application to the traffic management data in the city of Valencia.

From the 1980s, new telematic technologies have meant a great evolution in several areas. In the transportation domain, their use has implied the development and implementation of several intelligent transport systems (ITS). However, these deployments were done in an isolated way. Traffic managers, public and private organisations, stakeholders and others have implemented ITS without much perspective, that is, without providing ITS as services for end users. In the last few years, several European Union (EU) funded projects have been dealing with the development of harmonised ITS services. For example, the EasyWay Project is involving most of the European countries (EU member states and others) to deploy harmonised ITS services taking into account the European citizen as the final target. In this study, an introduction of the EasyWay project is made, including the ITS concept services and the deployment guidelines for harmonisation. In November 2012, EasyWay presented a new version of DGs, which were approved with minor editorial changes. An overview on these DGs for the ITS services is presented and two real Spanish road traffic ITS services are analysed.

El uso de los procesos de observación e interpretación de la práctica docente como herramienta de aprendizaje para los docentes es infrecuente en España. Para promover su utilización, se considera la importancia de contar con instrumentos que faciliten este análisis de la práctica, a la vez que recogen las características particulares del contexto educativo donde se utilizan. Este estudio presenta el proceso de diseño, construcción y validación de POEMat.ES, un instrumento de observación e interpretación de la práctica docente, en las clases de matemáticas de la etapa de Educación Secundaria. Este proceso consta de dos fases: 1) revisión de la literatura y diseño, utilizando un grupo nominal con 24 especialistas; 2) construcción y validación mediante un método Delphi en dos rondas, con 15 expertos. La versión final del instrumento se organiza en torno a tres dimensiones: contenido matemático, didáctica del contenido matemático y gestión del aula, con un total de 17 indicadores, cada uno de los cuáles se clasifica en cuatro niveles. Las metodologías de consenso utilizadas se consideran adecuadas para la elección y validación de los indicadores que enmarcan la observación de la práctica docente. Se concluye que POEMat.ES es una herramienta útil para sistematizar la observación de la práctica docente y así comprender e interpretar con precisión el proceso de enseñanza de las matemáticas en el aula de matemáticas de Secundaria según la realidad española.
