In October 2016, the GCTC organized the 160 existing Action Clusters into a set of “SuperClusters” based on specific community service and mission areas. The SuperClusters have since evolved as the organizing structure for the GCTC, representing specific technology focus areas, while also coordinating the activities of a diverse membership of community Action Clusters from cities and regions across the nation and among international partners. By 2019, the initial seven SuperClusters had expanded to nine, and since 2020 have added three more to comprise twelve working groups aligned along the technology areas noted here. GCTC Organization and Technology Focus Areas (AKA Superclusters…to be renamed)
- Transportation systems, vehicles, and autonomy
- (adding cross-over topics Parking, Lidar, road systems/ODOT, trenching for broadband, charging stations, rights of way)
- Data governance and city data platforms and dashboards
- Public utilities for energy, water and waste management
- might this now (or soon) include broadband (perhaps management / oversight / policy)
- Wireless communications and broadband applications (perhaps from the perspective of technologies / data / data management)
- Cybersecurity and privacy for public and private sectors
- Public safety/security and communications
- Community resilience, adaptability and sustainability
- Agriculture and rural productivity and quality of life
- Smart building technologies and IoT applications (perhaps now with “Building” as a verb and including community engagement / Computer-Human Interface Design / UX
- Education and workforce development (Covering the Education industry (vertical) as well as serving as the outreach / education / communications arm for GCTC generally (horizontal) as we have not had a Marketing/Communications *function; Has also been the seat of “Community Engagement” topic)
- Smart Regions and collaboration strategies (Does “collaboration strategies” refer to techniques, technologies, processes, governance?)
- Community well-being, ethics, integrity, and trust (Was “Thriving Communities” coupled with “DEI”)
QUESTIONS: WHAT’S MISSING – WHERE ARE THE GAPS, WHERE ARE THE OTHER OVERLAPS, WHAT ARE THE HANDOFFS BETWEEN AREAS/SUPERCLUSTERS, HOW IS OR SHOULD BE THE WORK INTEGRATED
- Safety and community resilience issues
- Start with key performance indicators of a city
