Chiomonte Smart Project

The “Chiomonte SMART” is a project managed by the association Chiomonte ImprenD’Oc and funded by “Comitati Territoriali IREN” as a prosecution of the “Chiomonte 2025” project concluded in 2018. While “Chiomonte 2025” was devoted to profoundly understand the territorial reality of Chiomonte mainly related to the High Speed Train Line Torino-Lione (HSTL), “Chiomonte SMART” aimed at a deeper analysis proposing alternative strategies for the territory in exam. In particular, the research conducted by the Working Group (WG) of the Interuniversity Department of Regional and Urban Studies and Planning (DIST) aims to pursue multiple goals: • verify the relevance of the specific activities for the territory proposed by ImprenD’Oc in collaboration with numerous territorial and academic stakeholders. The activities proposed by ImprenD’Oc are the result of a precise knowledge of the territory and of the problem and of a study and joint research work between different actors. These activities relate to 4 territorial development plans of Chiomonte (Real Estate Heritage Redevelopment Plan, PIRIPIC; Action Plan for sustainable energy and climate, PAES-C; Project for agricultural redevelopment and recovery of viticulture sector of Chiomonte municipality, PRAREVIC; Integrated plan for economic tourism development, PISTE) as described in the reports published by ImprenD’Oc (2016, 2018); • develop a “platform for data viewer and GIS publishing” using the Web (hereinafter referred to as the “GIS platform”) containing the available data relating to the 4 territorial development plans of Chiomonte and specific activities; • conducting proactive analyses with a view to a future sustainable development of the municipality of Chiomonte.
