International Standardization Initiatives on International Standardization Initiatives on Smart CitiesSmart Cities

• With a high market potential and uptake in different sectors a system approach to standardization is thus required for the development of smart cities technologies and processes that will result in commercially scalable and replicable solutions

• The integration, harmonization, sustainability, interoperability, cost reduction and market uptake of those identified solutions can be achieved through standardization only.

WORK DONE AT INTERNATIONAL LEVEL• No standard has so far been formulated by ISO• ISO has formed ‘Strategic Advisory Groups’ for initiating standardization on smart cities.• IEC No standard so far has been formulated• Formation of Working Groups etc are in process. India has also been invited by IEC to

participate. • BSI has taken gone a little far and some initial documents have been prepared which are

to be made available as public document by 2014 year end, These are:-PAS 180;- TerminologyPAS 181Smart City Frame workPAS 182 Smart City Concept ModelPD 8100 Smart City OverviewPD 8101 Smart City Planning Guidelines

• DIN:- ‘The German Standardization Roadmap Smart City’ has been published which briefly outlines the major issues involved, methodology for determining the demand for standardization and the recommendations.

Work at National Level

•The works on standardization involves multiple departments cutting across various ministries.•As National Standards Body, BIS has formulated National Standards in various technological disciplines (14 Divisional Councils).•National Building code and National Electrical Code and other standards/codes of practices which have national acceptance. Various states follow these standards partially or fully. These guidelines are of immense relevance to planning, construction and maintenance of infrastructures.•BIS also has exclusive sectional Committee on Urban Planning and Sustainability. Standardization related to Smart Grid/ Smart Meter is also in progress.•Now, BIS has constituted one new sectional committee to initiate formulation of National Standards on Smart Cities.•The proposed scope of standardization under this new committee is-•“Standardization in the field of Conceptualization, Planning, Development, Establishment, Maintenance, Sustenance and Assessment of Smart Cities.”
