ISO/PWI for smart cities responding PHE newly approved

On April 14, 2022, the international standard ISO 37113 "Sustainable Cities and Communities - Management guidelines for public - health emergency response in smart city operating models", led by the member cities of ISSCC China Alliance, was voted and successfully approved by the Technical Committee for sustainable development of cities and communities of the international organization for Standardization (ISO / TC 268) .

Issued by the Secretariat of China National Standardization Administration Committee The notice on giving full play to the role of the National Professional Standardization Technical Committee to help prevent and control the epidemic and resume work and production requires that international standard proposals be actively put forward. China Institute of standardization and domestic technical support units organized the preparation of this draft international standard. The international standard pre proposal was approved in September 2020 and the Chinese national standard was approved in May 2021. It is expected that the national standard will be released in 2022 and the international standard will be released in 2024.

This standard is a smart city application guide standard proposed in the field of public health emergencies. Based on the characteristics of public health emergencies and on the basis of ISO 37106:2021 guide for sustainable development of cities and communities and establishment of smart city operation model, this standard summarizes and improves the specific practice of China's guidelines of "scientific accuracy and dynamic zeroing" in the field of smart cities, Combined with the experience of smart cities around the world in fighting the epidemic, help urban managers make better use of the open and collaborative smart city operation model to improve their ability to respond to public health emergencies.

The successful establishment of this standard indicates that the experience of China's smart cities in dealing with the epidemic will have the opportunity to rise to international consensus. In the future, we hope that more cities and communities can also participate, integrate the "Chinese experience" into international standards and conduct foreign exchanges and cooperation.
