Summary

Recommendation ITU-T Y.4200 defines the requirements for the interoperability of a smart city platform (SCP) and its reference points in order to ensure the correct functioning of city services.

The SCP offers services to a smart city. Interoperability between SCPs allows the increase in the number of services provided and their quality. It enables the provision of better services to citizens, and at the same time ensures maximum efficiency, scalability and simple integration.

By permitting interoperability with other platforms the SCP will also encourage local economic development through innovation and competition.
