Description
Many municipalities adopt artificial intelligence without knowing if their supporting data is accurate, turning municipal decision-making into an opaque "black box." To address this, we introduce the AI Flow for Municipalities, an evidence-led orchestration system developed under the Czech CESMOD project. Built upon the national Smart Cities Concept, the system utilizes the 4-Diamonds framework and an expert-curated Information and Data Platform (IDP) to map unstructured municipal queries into multi-sectoral, policy-compliant recommendations. By providing auditable data provenance and clear contextual logic, this transparent framework enables genuinely data-driven territorial development and offers a scalable model for explainable AI governance.
