4.2.2 Current status of local e-government The 2024 edition of the LOSI study is the second one to incorporate an assessment of e-government in the most populous city in each of the 193 Member States. [...] The number of cities in the middle category decreased from 45 to 40, while those in the low category increased from 26 to 30; the uptick in the latter is largely attributable to the introduction of five new city portals since the 2022 assessment. [...] The light blue lines above and below the thick line is the confidence interval (meaning the margin of error of the prediction of the regression line). [...] The increase from 55 to 61 per cent in the availability of environment-related content is indicative of a growing emphasis on sustainability and the role of cities in achieving the SDGs. [...] The LOSI also evaluates the integration of the latest technologies into governance practices, including the provision of open data, indications of smart city initiatives, and the use of emergent technologies.
