Snap4City puts in the hands of City Users a flexible environment to quickly create a large range of smart city applications/views exploiting heterogeneous data and services of stakeholders by IOT/IOE and big data technologies. For Snap4City, City Users can be citizens, students, operators, researchers, decision makers, developers, etc. see Users' Roles on Snap4City. They can be registered in the Role of Managers or AreaManagers (developers, hackathon participants), depeding on the organization and related agreements. Please note that a:
All users are assessed on the basis of their activities to provide them personalized suggestions on how to pass at the next Level. All the users start at Level 0 and may increase Level up to 5, fully mastering the platform as users and contributors as described in the following. Levels 6 and 7 are reserved for administrators. |

Suggested Activities to be performed to learn HOW to use Snap4City:Â Â Â Â Â Â Â
 Â
This page would guide you along few steps to see how the Snap4City is helping you to incrementally pass from Level 0 to 5, from a Manager to an AreaManager:
- Level 0 user: access at data/services views of the city by using public Dashboards; (Public User)Â
 (overview on dashboards)
- Level 1 user: create personal/professional views/dashboards on data; (Manager)Â
 (see what a Manager can do),Â
 ( see how Dashboards can be created)
- Level 2 user: exploit connected IOT/IOE devices: sensors and actuators, on Dashboards or creating an IOT App as anticipating some of the test cases of Level 4; (Manager)
- Level 3 user: connect your IOT Device (sensor, actuators) or creating an IOT App as anticipating some of the test cases of Level 4, and use/control on Dashboards; (Manager)
- Level 4 user: create personal IOT/IOE Applications defining the control logic/rule behind your Dashboard; (role: Manager)Â
  (dashboard vs IOT Devices vs IOT applications)
- Level 5 user: develop complex applications and services for the city; (Role: Area Manager)Â
 (see what an Area Manager can do)
- Level 6 users and above
Â
The users typically are registered as Manager/Level 0. They can pass at the next Levels only by conquering them by demonstrating to be capable to create Dashboards, IOT Applications, etc. The first Levels are still for Managers. The progresses for the Levels are described in this page. Level 5 can be reached only becoming an AreaManager.
The AreaManagers are the developers and/or contributors of the platform, and may have several benefits, including more power, data access, etc. etc.Â
The attribution of the AreaManager role is provided on the basis of the activitiy performed as in the passing from Level 0 to Level 4. Once arrived at Level 4 please performs your submission by using the contact form accessible on https://www.snap4city.org/drupal/contact FORM.
The Organizations (cities, regions, univeristy, research centers, etc.) can directly subscribe for their personnel a number of users with the role of AreaManager or higher.
Â
Please note that, all the users, may collaborate in the city Living Lab by sharing solution and experiences via the Snap4City Portal; access to documentation; help desk; FAQ; personal user profile and data management according to GDPR. The Snap4City solution also provides two more levels for ToolAdmin e RootAdmin. They are covered by few experts to manage the solution and provide your services according to roles described in Users' Roles on Snap4City. You can contact them on https://www.snap4city.org/drupal/contact
If you are interested in getting an overview you should read:Â

Level 0 User: Access at data/services views of the city by using public Dashboards; (Public User)Â Â
The simplest usage of Snap4City solution is as observer as called Public User (Level 0 User). The public users do not need to be registered. They can access to https://www.snap4city.org and see the public information and Dashboards. Public Dashboards are tools for rendering status and trends of data and services, providing making decision support, real time values and historical values, maps and histograms, etc.
