Per far fronte al problema energetico ed ai cambiamenti climatici in maniera efficace è indispensabile agire sulla capacità delle istituzioni di conoscere e gestire razionalmente il flusso delle risorse sul proprio territorio. Il concetto di metabolismo urbano è ormai ben noto a tutti gli addetti ai lavori ma persiste la mancanza di basi strumentali per misurarne l’impatto e l’evoluzione. Il livello di aggregazione dei dati raccolti ed elaborati da utilities, istituzioni ed enti di ricerca, non permette di comprendere questo fenomeno poiché nasconde dinamiche intra zonali molto complesse. Per poter conoscere al meglio il proprio territorio è necessario aumentare la granularità geografica del dato: prendendo spunto da un progetto Californiano, il presente scritto illustra la validità ed i benefici dell’applicazione di una metodologia di raccolta ed elaborazione dati sulla Città Metropolitana di Milano.

Abstract
In order to effectively cope with the energy problem and climate change effects, it is essential to act on the ability of the institutions to rationally know and manage the flow of resources on their territory. The concept of urban metabolism is now well known to all insiders but the lack of instrumental bases to measure its impact and evolution persists. The aggregation level of data collected and processed by utilities, institutions and research organizations, does not allow a profound understanding of this phenomenon because it hides very complex intra zonal dynamics. In order to better comprehend the territory, it is necessary to increase the geographical granularity of the data: taking inspiration from a Californian project, this paper illustrates the validity and benefits of the application of a methodology for collecting and processing data on the Metropolitan City of Milan.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
