A scorecard assessing strategies technologies. practical implementation then tested with real cases, one from fourth-tier city another high-density city. applicability is further discussed comparing it well-developed international assessment tools other contexts. This article contributes to literature first initiating research use this evaluative secondly demonstrating how researchers can convert policies into implementations.
