This Recommendation defines the requirements for interoperability of a smart city platform (SCP) and reference points in order to ensure the correct functioning of the city services. The SCP offers services to a smart city. Interoperability between SCPs allows the increase in number of services 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.
