ISO/TC 268/SC 1/WG 1 - Infrastructure metrics

ISO 37153:2017 provides the basis, requirements and guidance for a maturity model for the assessment of technical performance, process and interoperability of community infrastructure(s) as well as its contribution to the community, and guidance for future improvements. This document is applicable to a) all types of community infrastructure, including, but not limited to, energy, water, transportation, waste and ICT, b) single types of community infrastructure or multiple types of community infrastructure, and c) all types of communities, regardless of geographical locations, size, economic structure, stage of economic development, and d) all applicable stages of infrastructure life cycle (e.g. planning/design, construction, operation, decommission). NOTE Utilization of natural systems, such as green infrastructure, is also considered as one type of infrastructure.

ISO/TS 37151:2015 gives principles and specifies requirements for the · definition, · identification, · optimization, and · harmonization of community infrastructure performance metrics, and gives recommendations for analysis, including · smartness, · interoperability, · synergy, · resilience, · safety, and · security of community infrastructures. Community infrastructures include, but are not limited to, energy, water, transportation, waste, and ICT. The principles and requirements of ISO/TS 37151:2015 are applicable to communities of any size sharing geographic areas that are planning, commissioning, managing, and assessing all or any element of its community infrastructures. However, the selection and the importance of metrics or (key) performance indicators of community infrastructures is a result of the application of ISO/TS 37151:2015 and depends on the characteristics of each community. In ISO/TS 37151:2015, the concept of smartness is addressed in terms of performance relevant to technologically implementable solutions, in accordance with sustainable development and resilience of communities as defined in ISO/TC 268.

ISO/TR 37150:2014 provides a review of existing activities relevant to metrics for smart community infrastructures. In ISO/TR 37150:2014, the concept of smartness is addressed in terms of performance relevant to technologically implementable solutions, in accordance with sustainable development and resilience of communities, as defined in ISO/TC 268. ISO/TR 37150:2014 addresses community infrastructures such as energy, water, transportation, waste and information and communications technology (ICT). It focuses on the technical aspects of existing activities which have been published, implemented or discussed. Economic, political or societal aspects are not analyzed in ISO/TR 37150:2014. NOTE ISO/TR 37150:2014 is not a recommendation document for best practices. Although sustainability objectives have been considered, the main subject of ISO/TR 37150:2014 is the analysis of existing methodologies for smart community infrastructures.
