Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

Introduction
ISO/TC 268/SC 1 identifies the best pilot cities on a global scale by continuously selecting cities to
standardize SC 1 in subsequent smart city infrastructure. It provides guiding suggestions for the
development of smart cities, provides reference and helps for the construction of international smart
cities, reversely puts the results formed by standards into practice in cities and ensures that the
development of smart cities reaches the level of performance they deserve.

4 General
4.1 Overview
4.1.1 How to succeed in testing smart community international standards in cities
Smart community international standards, which are combined with the current situation and
development goals of local smart community construction, can promote the establishment of local
characteristics of a smart community performance evaluation system (EVA), and guide and supervise
the local smart community construction results. The correctness, completeness and implementation
of the contents of international standards can be verified through specific projects in the construction
content and construction practice. At the same time, the standards can get pilot testing feedback
according to the actual usage in the project construction. Also, the content of the international standards
can be modified and improved to evaluate the achievements of smart community construction.
4.1.2 Recommendations for international standard pilot testing work
ISO/TC 268/SC 1 can promote the formulation of test targets and work programs, select proper pilot
cities, implement pilot implementation programs and accept pilot test results, which greatly promotes
the construction of smart cities and international standards.
4.2 Implementation
4.2.1 Global implementation
According to smart city standards and status analysis, different standards are selected to carry out
pilot test work. The targets of the whole world are:
— Promote the practicality of international standards. Pilot testing work can verify the feasibility
of smart community international standards, accelerate the implementation of standard results,
further optimize and improve international standards, make international standards more mature
and applicable.
— Improve the level of international standardization. Different countries and cities have different needs
for the development of smart cities. The global pilot cities are testing under the same framework,
which is conducive to improving the standardization of cities and the overall standardization of the
international community.
— Promote the sustainable development of cities. Pilot testing work is helpful to establish a smart
community performance evaluation system suitable for local characteristics, scientifically guide
and supervise the effectiveness of smart community construction, improve the level of smart city
and achieve sustainable development of cities and communities.
In addition, through the standards pilot and testing work, it can provide mature working ideas and
methods for other international standard testing work.
Different cities can learn from each other. They can construct and improve the smart community design,
city planning and maturity models in accordance with international standards. The pilot test results
are promoted to the international standardization system to enhance the visibility of the community
and attract the attention of the industry. Cities can also find shortcomings and further clarify the key
points of smart community construction.
Until now, Chengdu and Nanhai in China have taken the lead in the pilot test work. Hefei, Kawasaki and
Cambridge are going to start standard pilot testing work.
Hefei has a total area of 11 400 km and a total resident population of 7 790 000. The urban built-up
area of Hefei is 416 km and the built-up area resident population is about 4,09 million. This city has
selected ISO/TS 37151, ISO 37154 and ISO 37156 for pilot testing.
Kawasaki City was selected as a pilot city in Japan. Kawasaki is a sustainable growing city, it has
multiple functions such as a heavy industrial area, a business area and a commuter town for Tokyo.
Kawasaki selected ISO 37153 for pilot testing.
Cambridge was selected as a pilot city in the UK. Cambridge is the capital of Cambridgeshire in England.
Cambridge's pilot and testing of smart community international standards has provided an important
foundation for the future construction of a friendly city between Cambridge and Hefei.

4.2.2 Implementation in China
4.2.2.1 Chengdu
Chengdu is the provincial capital of Sichuan Province, China, and a sub-provincial city. It covers an
area of 14 300 km and has a resident population of nearly 16 million. Chengdu selected ISO/TS 37151,
ISO 37153, ISO 37155-1 and ISO 37156 for pilot testing. Through the pilot test, several documents were
formed. Since September 2017, the municipal government of Chengdu has investigated 20 departments.
The research department has little information about energy and waste and has not collected
corresponding data. In the three aspects of transportation, water and ICT, Chengdu seldom has the
corresponding mature index system standards and norms, but the construction of a performance
evaluation system has a certain basis. Chengdu already has the corresponding recognition and attention
to the construction of the index system, but the construction of the index system only stays at the stage
of a single and individual business, and there is no overall or global platform for the construction of the
index system.
Based on the theory of the life cycle, there are four problems in the management of smart community
infrastructure projects in Chengdu. First, there is no standard reference process or process documents
for smart community infrastructure projects; second, the logic of the project process is not clear;
third, the risk-prevention awareness of the project process is weak; fourth, the particularity of smart
community projects is not fully considered.
The municipal government of Chengdu has a large number of urban basic data resources, but the
management is decentralized and the system is not perfect; the data is incomplete, irregular, incorrect
and inconsistent and
