ISO 23584-1:2009

Optics and photonics — Specification of reference dictionary — Part 1: General overview on organization and structure ISO 23584-1:2009

Scope

ISO 23584-1:2009 provides the basis for the preparation of a reference dictionary of standardized product properties for the area of optics and photonics, and for the provision of this reference dictionary and its entire contents in electronic form.
ISO 23584-1:2009, on the basis of the rules set forth in ISO 13584-42, IEC 61360-1 and in the ISO/IEC Guide 77-2 for specification of product properties and families, specifies a reference dictionary of standardized product properties for the area of optics and photonics.
The properties are determined on the basis of standardized attributes. To ensure optimum unambiguity the standardized properties are classified into definition classes forming a so-called standardized “reference hierarchy”.
