Smart City: Do we have enough standards?

| Dr. Anil Roy, David Law

A survey document on the industry connections activity initiation document (ICAID) of the IEEE Gujarat Section

Gone are the days of smart devices. Here comes the age of smart cities. In layman’s terms, smart cities are driven by intelligent sensors, machine-to-machine connections, and efficient and secured decision support systems that all ultimately result in increased productivity and a happy life.

So, what is the way forward if we want to implement the beautiful concept of a smart city into our city? It is too complex, too connected, and dependent upon so many other services, applications, and platforms. It deals with huge data. Its decision support systems should be as dynamic as possible. Resources have to be planned in the most optimized form. And above all, it has to ensure the safety and security of citizens and their data. In this highly entangled environment, where it is too difficult to think of a single centralized control room, all technology platforms should have interoperability such that applications can move from one platform to another seamlessly. This necessitates the availability of industrial standards. There are standards in each and every domain, but do we have standards across all domains? That is the biggest challenge in front of technology drivers. Industrial standards for sensors, and ultimately standards for the smart city, need to evolve.

IEEE standards that are available and have direct relevance to the application segments and verticals of a smart city are presented in the following table.[1] However, other applicable standards may exist.

The IEEE Standards Association (IEEE-SA) should form focus groups to study and report if these standards allow interoperability. If not, respective working groups are to be formed that will work on protocols to ensure the interoperability of these standards.

Besides IEEE, there are many organizations that have been developing standards in one or many of the verticals pertaining to a smart city, e.g., AIM (Association for Automatic Identification and Mobility); ASCE (American Society of Civil Engineers); BIS (Bureau of Indian Standards); BSI (British Standards Institution); CITS (Collaboration on ITS Communication Standards); ETSI (European Telecommunications Standards Institute); IETF (Internet Engineering Task Force); IEC (International Electrotechnical Commission); ISO (International Organization for Standardization); ITU (International Telecommunication Union); ITU-T (International Telecommunication Union Standardization Sector); NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology); OGC (Open Geospatial Consortium); SAC (Standardization Administration of the People’s Republic of China); SDO (Standards Development Organization); SEG (Systems Evaluation Group); SIGGRAPH (Special Interest Group for Computer GRAPHics); UNFCCC (United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change); and the W3C (World Wide Web Consortium).

The ITU has set up the “Focus Group on Smart Sustainable Cities.”[1] This group has published over twenty technical reports on different topics belonging to the overall smart city domain, along with its “Standardization Roadmap for Smart Sustainable Cities.”[2] These are valuable reports to give all stakeholders a deep insight into the concept of a smart city before they decide to turn the concept into reality. Otherwise, the project of building a smart city may become another mere city with some automation and fancy sensor-based applications. Some of them, for reference, are:

  1. Standardization roadmap for smart sustainable cities,
  2. Technical report–city leaders guide,
  3. Technical report–KPIs definitions,
  4. Technical report–masterplan framework,
  5. Technical report–smart water management in cities,
  6. Technical report–SSC architecture,
  7. Technical report–ICTs for climate change adaptation,
  8. Technical report–multiservice infrastructure for SSC in new development areas,
  9. Technical report–smart buildings,
  10. Technical report–EMF,
  11. Technical report–anonymization infrastructure open data in SSC,
  12. Technical report–integrated management for SSC,
  13. Technical report–ICT infrastructure for resilience security,
  14. Technical report–smart sustainable cities infrastructure,
  15. Technical report–standardization roadmap,
  16. Technical report–standardization activities.

Despite having so many industry and application standards in various verticals of a smart city, there is a strong need for the development of comprehensive standards that will encompass all of the competing technologies and protocols to best fit end-user demands and aspirations. In the smart city business there is nothing which is “one size fits all.”

Hence, the rush for standardization seems to be endless.
