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

Introduction
The public sector is one of the most data-intensive sectors, as it generates as well as consumes, a
huge amount of public service information on a regular basis. Besides the need for transparency, the
openness of this data can contribute to the planned growth of cities, the development of technological
municipal infrastructure, improved governance, and overcoming societal challenges. Many countries
have established an online platform that discloses data collected by public sectors. Such ‘open data’ is
freely available data that can be accessed, used, re-used, distributed, and re-distributed by any process
of interest, without any restriction or limitation. Open data are part of an open government that makes
accountable, responsive and inclusive governance. Open data are part of the development of a data and
platform economy and favour greater integration and infrastructure connectivity.
In this context, public sector bodies have realized not only the value and importance of the data they
hold in their registers, databases and IT systems, but also understand that these data should be set
free as far as possible. Open data in smart cities can include rapid velocity of real-time data in large
volumes, as well as publishing and connecting structured data sets, such as linked data, within the
infrastructure of all cities, which can be accessible via online analysis, source files, online visualization
and Application Programming Interfaces (APIs).
For sustainable cities and communities, especially developed and managed under requirements specified
in ISO 37101, adaptation and utilization of open data is expected to enhance smartness, resiliency,
transparency, accountability and sustainability, by fostering business creation and development of
solutions for the city, as well as creating a new value or benefiting people and stakeholders within.
Open data can improve quality and speed of preparation of plans and infrastructure projects for the
city.
However, despite the benefit of use and necessity of open data, there is not enough information or
standards in the management of open data to be utilized in sustainable cities and communities.
Therefore, for those who are involved in the management process of open data, it is necessary to define
the management framework of open data in terms of management processes, e.g. strategic planning,
evaluation, identification, preparation, publication, maintenance, and quality management.
The primary audience for this document is officials in cities and the public sector, researchers, research
institutions and civil society organizations. Secondary audiences can be those who are in the private
sector, including non- or for-profit organizations.

Figure 1 — Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) model of open data management
These management processes are based on the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) model (Figure 1) and the
processes are described and mapped as follows:
— Plan: strategic planning process, involving end-user and cross-sector and cross-jurisdictional
knowledge, that defines problems and goals to achieve;
— Do: identification, preparation, publication, and maintenance of open data to achieve predefined
goals;
— Check: quality management process that monit
