DESCRIPTION:https://www.w3.org/events/meetings/df2c5c9b-b9b5-4ea2-a4d8-6cec
 aca81c08/\n\nBased on the discussion during the [W3C workshop on Smart Cit
 ies](https://www.w3.org/2021/06/smartcities-workshop/report.html) in 2021 
 and then two follow-up breakout sessions with invited key stakeholders fro
 m related SDOs ([one during TPAC 2022](https://www.w3.org/2022/09/14-smart
 cities-minutes.html) and [another during TPAC 2023](https://www.w3.org/202
 3/09/13-smartcities-minutes.html))\, we identified the stakeholders around
  Smart City standardization and reasonable applications for Smart City tec
 hnologies. In addition\, we got thoughtful input on how to improve the [dr
 aft Charter](https://w3c.github.io/smartcities-workshop/draft-charter/inde
 x.html) Charter of the proposed Web-based Digital Twins for Smart Cities I
 nterest Group for further discussions.\n\nSome of the key input included:\
 n* "Digital Twins" should be the key concept for Smart Cities standardizat
 ion.\n* Web standards\, e.g.\, Web of Things (WoT)\, Decentralized Identif
 iers (DID) and Verifiable Credentials (VC)\, should be considered as possi
 ble key modules for the possible Web-based Digital Twins framework.\n* Sta
 ndard vocabulary for semantic interoperability is also required for the pl
 atform.\n* Collaboration by related SDOs is necessary for further discussi
 on\, and W3C should become the central hub for the discussion given Web st
 andards play very important roles.\n\nNow the [Web-based Digital Twins for
  Smart Cities Interest Group](https://www.w3.org/2024/06/smart-cities/) ha
 s been launched\, and we'd like to start actual discussion about with the 
 key stakeholders from related SDOs\, industries and coutries/cities to wor
 k on the following deliverables of the Interest Group:\n* Survey on the ex
 isting technologies and standards for Smart Cities\, e.g.\, possible build
 ing blocks of Digital Twin Framework and standardized Vocabularies for Sma
 rt Cities\n* Best Practices on what kind of technologies to be applied to 
 what kind of Smart Cities applications\, e.g.\, WoT\, Automotive\, Geospat
 ial\, VR/AR\, Speech and Semantic Web to be applied to improved accessibil
 ity\, visitor guidance and energy management\n* Use cases and requirements
  for Smart Cities\n\nAgenda\n\n**Chairs:**\nKazuyuki Ashimura\, Michael Ko

 prove the [draft Charter](https://w3c.github.io/smartcities-workshop/draft

 out with the key stakeholders from related SDOs\, industries and coutries/
 cities to work on the following deliverables of the Interest Group:\n* Sur
 vey on the existing technologies and standards for Smart Cities\, e.g.\, p
 ossible building blocks of Digital Twin Framework and standardized Vocabul
 aries for Smart Cities\n* Best Practices on what kind of technologies to b
 e applied to what kind of Smart Cities applications\, e.g.\, WoT\, Automot
 ive\, Geospatial\, VR/AR\, Speech and Semantic Web to be applied to improv
 ed accessibility\, visitor guidance and energy management\n* Use cases and
  requirements for Smart Cities\n\n**Goal(s):**\nFollowing the [breakout di
 scussion during TPAC 2023](https://www.w3.org/2023/09/13-smartcities-minut
 es.html)\, we'll summarize the discussion around Smart Cities within W3C s
 o far\, share the [Charter of the Web-based Digital Twins for Smart Cities
  IG](https://www.w3.org/2024/06/smart-cities/)\, and ask the key steakhold
 ers to join the discussion of the IG to kick-start the group's activity.\n
 \n\n**Agenda:**\n1. Review the discussion so far (Workshop and follow-up m
 eetings)\n2. Review the [IG Charter](https://www.w3.org/2024/06/smart-citi
 es/)\n3. Discuss next steps: high-priority issues\, clarify which existing
  work to be considered\, how to proceed the discussion (monthly calls?)\n\
