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 are needed todocument 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).

Introduction
This document aims to provide common considerations about data use in smart cities based on the analysis
of collected use cases.
The objectives and implications of this document are:
— to support effective, sustainable, comprehensive and innovative use of data as strategic resource city-wide
for better performance, operation, service and sustainability of city;
— to support human-centred standardization collaboration on data use for better harmonization,
connectivity, interoperability and reusability of data as strategic resources and asset in digital
transformation of city;
— to synthesize common considerations that enable data availability, data usefulness, data connectivity, data
security, and data enabled intelligent predictions and actions from city wide mutimulti-stakeholder’s
interests from collected use cases;
— to collect good practices that enable mapping, building, operating, assessing and continuous improvement
of data use in ICT development and applications, investment, procurement, monitoring, auditing and
performance assessment;
— to improve digital enhancement of total capabilities of data use and evidence-based decision making in
smart cities such as data use for public health emergency and control across multi-dimensions, multi-
domains, multi-layers and multi-regions;
— to support data-based and data-driven and data-enabled ICT development and applications in smart cities
including but limited to digital governance, legal governance, data quality governance, ICT governance,
data security governance, smart governance, etc;
— to support the appropriate use of rights related to data distributed within and between cities, including
intellectual property rights and privacy data derived from human rights.
