BS ISO 37105:2019

This standard BS ISO 37105:2019 Sustainable cities and communities. Descriptive framework for cities and communities is classified in these ICS categories:

• 13.020.20 Environmental economics

This document specifies a descriptive framework for a city including an associated foundational ontology of the anatomical structure of a city or community. The descriptive framework is intended to have the following qualities:

• timeless, i.e. compatible with any human settlement at any time in history;

• acultural, i.e. valid for any culture and any type of city;

• scalable, i.e. valid for a metropolis, a city, a small town or a village;

• generic, so that everything we could define as a “human settlement”, such as a “smart city”, has a place in this structure.
