  1. IoT for Smart Cities Where we are at and where we could be Olga CavalliCCAT LAT Argentina Forum on "Powering Smart Sustainable Cities With the Internet of Things” 5th ITU Green Standards Week

  2. ITU Centre of Excellence ICT Training for Latin America and the Caribbean - 1987 Telecom regulations – Internet networks – Spectrum management – Mulitistakeholder environments ICT Infrastructure – Internet Governance

  3. Present and future urban challenges • Urban residents growing + 60 M Year • 60 % world’s population will be living in cities by 2050 • + 100 cities of 1 M pops will be built in the next 10 years

  4. Where should we be in 2030?

  5. Goal 9. Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation • Developquality, reliable, sustainable and resilientinfrastructure, including regional and trans-borderinfrastructure, tosupporteconomicdevelopment and human well-being, with a focusonaffordable and equitableaccessforall • By 2030 upgradeinfrastructure and retrofit industries tomakethemsustainable, withincreasedresource use efficiency and greateradoption of clean and environmentallysoundtechnologies and industrial processes, allcountriestakingaction in accordancewiththeirrespectivecapabilities • Significantlyincreaseaccessto ICT and strivetoprovide universal and affordableaccessto internet in LDCsby 2020

  6. Goal 11. Makecities and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient and sustainable • Provide access to safe, affordable, accessible and sustainable transport systems for all, improving road safety, notably by expanding public transport, with special attention to the needs of those in vulnerable situations, women, children, persons with disabilities and older persons • Reduce the adverse per capita environmental impact of cities, special attention to air quality, municipal and other waste management • Increase the number of cities and human settlements adopting and implementing integrated policies and plans towards inclusion, resource efficiency, mitigation and adaptation to climate change

  7. What can be changed with IoT?Artificial Light • City’s identity + safety + business + tourism • Lighting = 19 % of all electricity consumed • One-third of the world’s roads are still lighted by old technology • LED lighting + smart controls = energy savings

  8. What can be changed with IoT?Water- Internet • 2.5 B people lack access to improved sanitation • 748 M people lack access to improved drinking-water • Digital divide between developed and developing countries: 2015 Internet users representing 82 % and 35 % respectively

  9. What about the infrastructure?

  10. IPV6 Adoption: developed and developing countries Source: https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html#tab=per-country-ipv6-adoption&tab=per-country-ipv6-adoption

  11. Opportunity: IoT allows objects to be sensed and controlled remotely across existing network infrastructure Improved efficiency, accuracy and economic benefit 50 b‘things’ will be connected to the Internet by 2020 Things should talk to each other -New divide? Adoption of IPV6 Avoid polarized development: smart cities should be a priority for developing countries

  12. Why global standards are relevant? • Drive competitiveness, for individual businesses and world economy • Lower prices • Reduce technical barriers • Foster interoperability • Manufacturers, network operators and consumers • Reduce negative impacts on the environment

  13. ITU-T Study Group 20 (SG20) • Responsible for international standards to enable the coordinated development of IoT technologies, including machine-to-machine communications and ubiquitous sensor networks. • Address the standardization requirements of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies, with an initial focus on IoT applications in smart cities and communities (SC&C). • Development of standards that leverage IoT technologies to address urban-development challenges.

  14. SG20 Structure • See: http://www.itu.int/en/ITU-T/studygroups/2013-2016/20/Pages/structure.aspx • List of Questions: http://www.itu.int/en/ITU-T/studygroups/2013-2016/20/Pages/questions.aspx

  15. Next steps: lets work together • Stakeholders work in collaboration to enhance infrastructure and profit from the use of new technologies • Stakeholders should work to avoid new divides or gaps: smart cities in all countries, up to date infrastructure in all countries • Thanks! • Gracias!
