Abstract The 2030 Agenda is a clear development milestone for humanity in its ambition to care for our future generations. Smart Cities play an essential role in this development, the development direction of which is based, among others factors, on the fulfilment of the criteria set by the various Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The purpose of the current research is to verify the current state of science concerning the development of the SDGs in Smart Cities to establish a theoretical framework for the development and integration of data specific to a Smart City to participate in homogeneous monitoring of these indicators and to compare with other Smart Cities. Once a robust bibliographic study has been carried out, we proceed to establish a theoretical study, the application methodology of which follows a process developed in various phases to obtain an integrated system for monitoring and linking of the development of Smart Cities according to the criteria set out in the applicable SDGs. The clear implication is establishing an objective and efficient process that covers collection to integrate and compare the obtained data. One of the limitations of this process is overcoming the technological barrier in specific less developed environments that may not have sufficient funding. With respect to future lines of research, the current study opens the door to studying the implications of this type of process on the management and elaboration of specific public policies, for example, concerning the time taken to establish and resolve them.
