Recommendation ITU-T L.1500 describes a framework for information and communication technologies (ICTs) and adaptation to the effects of climate change. This framework identifies and defines the basis for development of the following Recommendations:
• Recommendation ITU-T L.1501 on how countries can utilize ICTs to adapt to the effects of climate change. It will also provide a framework and a checklist for countries to integrate ICTs into their national strategies for adaptation to climate change. Examples of checklists, use cases, best practices, guidelines, consideration points, etc. will be added when appropriate.
• A future Recommendation on how to adapt the ICT infrastructure to the effects of climate change. It will provide a set of guidelines, requirements and best practices to be referred to during operation, maintenance, upgrade and improvement of existing ICT infrastructure and when planning, designing and constructing ICT projects, goods, networks and services to adapt to the effects of climate change. Examples of checklists, use-cases, best practices, guidelines, consideration points, etc. will be added when appropriate.
• A future Recommendation on how ICTs can help cities to adapt to the effects of climate change. It will also provide a framework and a checklist to assist municipal authorities in the implementation of ICT-based solutions in cities' climate change adaptation strategies. Examples of checklists, use-cases, best practices, guidelines, consideration points, etc. will be added when appropriate. |
