Status check on the rapidly expanding constellation of consensus and open source standards that will guide safety and sustainability regulations for the emergent #SmartCampus.  Of the 250-odd ANSI accredited standards developers we count about 50 of them active in capturing some aspect of the Internet of Things transformation.  There are even more open source standards developers in this space.  As is our custom, we will focus on public commenting opportunities that consensus and open source standards developers; scheduling breakout work sessions with user-interest subject matter experts as necessary.
