Smart Cities: where we are

1

Yes!

You may be already an

Efficient and Open City ….

… but there is still a

journey you have to

travel to be where

you HAVE TO BE

• Vertical solutions (some

being IoT-enabled) bringing

efficiency but in silos

• Historic and static data

published as open data

Enabling the

Data Economy

• City as a platform including

also 3rd party data enabling

innovative business models

• Open and commercial data

enabling multi-side markets

• Breaking information silos

through shared context data

space with standard API

• Enabling Overall City-level

Governance Solutions

Truly SmartUnleashing Right-time

Open Data

• Right-time context info

published to third parties

• Authorization and access

control (API management)

• Open innovation ecosystem

• No costs of adaptation to

achieve full interoperability

among systems in the city

• Enabling portability of

systems across cities

The FIWARE Context Broker

Technology has been selected

as a new CEF (Connecting

Europe Facility) Building Block

Enabling public and private

sector solutions regarding

publication of right-time data

The European Data portal will

evolve to incorporate ability to

publish right-time Open Data

ETSI created Jan 2017 a new

Industry Specification Group

on cross-sector Context

Information Management (ISG

CIM) for smart cities

applications and beyond.

FIWARE NGSIv2 was the

starting point for the CIM API

to be specified: NGSI-LD

FIWARE Context Broker to

support NGSI-LD in the future

The GSMA has published a

Reference Architecture for

IoT Big Data Ecosystem

which recommends to

mobile operators

FIWARE NGSIv2 should be

supported by

implementers delivering

the IoT Big Data

ecosystem

TM Forum is working with

FIWARE to deliver the key

building blocks for enabling and

connecting Smart City

ecosystems

TM Forum supports FIWARE

NGSIv2 for real-time access to

context information in cities

TM Forum and FIWARE

collaborate towards development

of data marketplace platform

components

Involving 117+ cities in 24+

countries.

All of them agree to foster

adoption of common

principles:

• Common API: FIWARE

NGSIv2

• Compatible Open Data

Publication platforms

• Collaboration in definition

of data models

Identified as one of the most

relevant Smart Cities

Platform initiatives with a

global footprint within the

IES-City (IoT-Enabled Smart

City) Framework

Moving into phase 2: Common Information Models for the City

▪ Portable Governance Solutions

▪ Vertical solutions more easy to plug

or replace

▪ Sharing of best practices between

cities made easier

▪ Smart Cities as a market where it will

be more attractive to invest
