The idea of modern urban systems and smart cities requires monitoring and careful analysis of different signals. Such signals can originate from different sources and one of the most promising is the BTS, i.e. base transceiver station, an element of mobile carrier networks. This paper presents the fundamental problems of elicitation, classification and understanding of such signals so as to develop context-aware and pro-active systems in urban areas. These systems are characterized by the

A method of analyzing selected elements of mobile phone datasets through understanding inhabitants' behavioral fingerprints to obtain smart scenarios for public transport is proposed. Some scenarios are outlined. A multi-agent system is proposed. A formalism based on graphs that allows reasoning about inhabitant behaviors is also proposed.
