scope:

Monitoring city assets can help smart city administrators to implement planning and control activities (e.g., policies and processes) in order to improve the operational efficiency of city facilities as well as to reduce potential risks to an acceptable level, for the benefits of all smart city stakeholders.

City asset monitoring may benefit from using Internet of things (IoT), especially for asset safeguarding, maintenance and management.

This Recommendation identifies requirements of IoT-enabled city infrastructure and capability framework for monitoring physical city assets, in order to enable an effective asset monitoring in smart cities.

The requirements and capabilities only address technical aspects of the IoT-enabled city infrastructure. Other aspects, including regulatory and economic ones, are out of the scope of this document.
