Abstract
Metropolises are increasingly challenged in moment’s times to ameliorate their competitiveness due to different reasons. Different strategic sweats are bandied about in planning lore, and new approaches and instruments are developed and applied, steering the positioning of metropolises in a competitive civic world. Still, there's some substantiation that public attention to megacity rankings is substantially concentrated simply on the species themselves, completely neglecting its meaning as an instrument for strategic planning. In order to unfold this implicit meaning of rankings the design is concerned with ranking different types of metropolises and introduces an own approach called ‘City Ranking’. Grounded on this ranking approach, with a number of megacity ranking systems, this study is an attempt to establish a relation between the megacity ranking and the preference of the people to live there. It'll show how this approach can be used as an effective instrument for detecting strengths and sins and perfecting a megacity’s competitiveness through applicable strategic sweats. The design is concerned with ranking the megacity according to some named parameters similar to demographics, population density, no. of days of extreme rainfall, quality of life, and crime rating index. The ranking of metropolises is to be shown on the dashboard according to each megacity’s scores.
