Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) and IEC (the International Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized system for worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC participate in the development of International Standards through technical committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the work.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are described in the ISO/IEC Directives, 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the different types of document should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, 2 (see www.iso.org/directives ).

Introduction

Smart city is a concept that has been widely used by city administrators, planners and implementers for decades. Although the precise definition of smart city has not been agreed upon among different international standardization organizations, the significance of information and communication technology (ICT) as indispensable key enablers is universally recognized. During the global development of smart cities, the issue of effectively adopting ICT in smart city programs as key enablers has become a common focus among scientific research institutions, industries, city administrators and construction implementers. This document supports the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals^[1][7][8].

It is an urgent and important task to develop standard evaluation methods and indicators focusing on the area of ICT within the smart city, with which the city stakeholders can understand the smart city performance from the perspective of ICT. The evaluation methods and indicators focus on the individual efficient functioning of different systems, infrastructures and facilities. In addition, they also provide the guidance on how cities function holistically and facilitate innovation and growth in an integrated and coherent way.

The purpose of establishing smart city ICT indicator systems and conducting smart city evaluations is to guide and promote a systematic construction of a smart city. The indicators can be used as a whole package to evaluate a smart city holistically. The package can also be tailored as individual parts when evaluating cities or certain aspects of cities. The indicators can be used to:

• evaluate the city ICT preparation state before starting the smart city construction;
• evaluate the effect of city ICT during and after the smart city construction;
• compare the smart city construction between cities in the area of city ICT in a certain area to promote smart city healthy competition and development.

This document establishes criteria to evaluate in making cities smarter. This document can be used to evaluate the level of smart city development. It is applicable to city, municipality or the local government. For city administration organizations, it can be used for self-evaluation and to develop corresponding ICT strategies to make cities smarter. For related evaluation agencies and scientific research institutions, it also provides guidance and reference in developing smart city ICT indicators.

The indicators in this document are consistent with the overall work of ISO/TC 268/WG 2 on smart city indicators.

1 Scope

This document defines a comprehensive set of evaluation indicators specially related to information and communication technologies (ICT) adoption and usage in smart cities. Firstly, it establishes an overall framework for all the indicators. Then, it specifies the name, description, classification and measurement method for each indicator.
