The corresponding indicators for each sub‐dimension are detailed in the "Technical Specifications
on key performance indicators related to the use of information and communication technology in
smart sustainable cities" and "Technical Specifications on key performance indicators related to the
sustainability impacts of information and communication technology in smart sustainable cities".

c) Setting the framework for ICT architecture of smart sustainable cities

The architecture of smart sustainable cities has been defined in the corresponding FG‐SSC Technical
Specification on “Setting the framework for an ICT architecture of a smart sustainable city” (fg‐ssc‐
0345), At a high level, a Meta‐Architecture consists of 5 layers (as depicted in Figure 3), which focus
on the integration between natural environment and soft infrastructure of urban spaces, while SSC
services run across these layers.
