The list of ISO technical committees that promote the development of «smart» cities is given. The main elements of the «smart» city are used to classify the standards. The main functions of the standards of strategic, process and technical levels are considered. In order to further analyze and create the information and analytical base for the study of «smart» sustainable cities development, the metadata for sustainable development of the «smart» city were systematized, the essence of the main international standards of the strategic, process and technical levels was considered. The basic provisions of these standards can be adopted by all relevant stakeholders involved in the planning, development and operation of intellectual community infrastructures, including planners, developers, operators and suppliers.
