Abstract With cities being responsible for approximately 70% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions, sustainable urban development becomes key to reduce climate impact. The use of monitoring frameworks for sustainable or smart cities has been promoted as a model of action in reaching the Sustainable Development Goals. At the same time, the wide diversity of cities and their specific size and local conditions make it difficult to standardize urban development processes, especially when the data gathered in each case may differ in focus, mode of collection or reporting. This paper studies the use of sustainable urban development monitoring frameworks and their alignment to the Sustainable Development Goals from the perspective of ten Norwegian small and medium sized cities. It also explores the potential of monitoring frameworks to support small and medium sized cities in meeting their climate targets and the suitability of such frameworks for cities of these sizes. © 2019 IEEE.
