The DIVA Territorial Intelligence Framework proposes a structured and modular architecture for governance-oriented territorial diagnostics grounded in multi-scalar validation and methodological standardization. Conceived prior to formal institutional funding, the framework integrates interdisciplinary territorial design logic with a reliability-differentiated validation system operating across Local, National and International levels. Rather than aggregating data descriptively, the model structures indicator domains through systemic clustering, cross-level coherence analysis and traceable validation protocols. A pilot implementation within a UNESCO-designated territorial context functioned as a demonstrative stress-test environment, confirming institutional adaptability and structural feasibility under conditions of governance complexity. The framework maintains analytical alignment with internationally recognized sustainability dimensions without mechanically deriving indicators from global frameworks, thereby preserving territorial specificity while enabling international comparability. This work formalizes a transferable territorial intelligence architecture bridging interdisciplinary territorial design and governance analytics. It anticipates integration into advanced digital decision-support systems while remaining grounded in methodological rigor rather than technological determinism, positioning the DIVA model as a scalable and internationally adaptable validation-based governance instrument. Keywords: Territorial Intelligence; Multi-Scalar Validation; Governance Analytics; Territorial Diagnostics; Indicator Standardization; Reliability Differentiation; Decision-Support Architecture.
