Abstract
Biophilic services provide many benefits to the cities in terms of recreational enjoyment, health and wellbeing, and providing green assets. This study is a work-in progress analyzing the nature of biophilic services to identify high-level requirements of an IoT-based Information and Communication application for managing biophilic service-provisioning processes in green (biophilic) cities. In this study, the biophilic city is considered as a complex network of ecosystems that maintains solidarity, stability, and sustainability within the environment. This study provides high-level design directives for the development of a full-blown service-oriented application for managing biophilic service provisioning processes in biophilic cities.
