General requirements for establishing anthropometric databases (ISO 15535:2006)
ISO 15535:2006 specifies general requirements for anthropometric databases and their associated reports that contain measurements taken in accordance with ISO 7250. It provides necessary information, such as characteristics of the user population, sampling methods, measurement items and statistics, to make international comparison possible among various population segments. The population segments specified in ISO 15535:2006 are people who are able to hold the postures specified in ISO 7250.
Allgemeine Anforderungen an die Einrichtung anthropometrischer Datenbanken (ISO 15535:2006)
Diese Internationale Norm legt allgemeine Anforderungen an anthropometrische Datenbanken und die dazu¬gehörigen Berichte fest, die nach ISO 7250 vorgenommene Messungen enthalten.
Sie liefert notwendige Angaben, wie Merkmale der Nutzer-Bevölkerung, Verfahren der Stichprobenziehung, Maße und statistische Verfahren, um einen internationalen Vergleich zwischen unterschiedlichen Bevöl¬kerungsgruppen zu ermöglichen. Die in dieser Internationalen Norm festgelegten Bevölkerungsgruppen sind Menschen, die in der Lage sind, die in ISO 7250 festgelegten Körperhaltungen einzunehmen.
ANMERKUNG Die in ISO 7250 definierte traditionelle Anthropometrie ist als eine notwendige Ergänzung der in einigen Ländern entwickelten dreidimensionalen Verfahren zu betrachten. Es ist wichtig, dass die erfassten Daten nach den in ISO 7250 angegebenen Begriffen verifiziert werden (siehe ISO 20685). Eine auf dem neuesten Stand der Technik befindli¬che Software ermöglicht eine Einbeziehung der traditionellen anthropometrischen Maße in diejenigen, die mit drei¬dimensionaler Darstellung erzielt wurden.
Exigences générales pour la création de bases de données anthropométriques (ISO 15535:2006)
L'ISO 15535:2006 spécifie les exigences générales relatives aux bases de données anthropométriques qui contiennent des mesures prises conformément à l'ISO 7250:1996 et aux rapports qui leur sont associés. Elle fournit les informations nécessaires telles que caractéristiques de la population utilisatrice, méthodes d'échantillonnage, éléments mesurés et statistiques afin de rendre la comparaison possible à l'échelle internationale parmi diverses tranches de populations. Les tranches de population spécifiées dans l'ISO 15535:2006 concernent des personnes qui sont à même de tenir les postures spécifiées dans l'ISO 7250:1996.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 15535 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 159, Ergonomics, Subcommittee SC 3,
Anthropometry and biomechanics.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 15535:2003), Clauses 1 and 2, subclauses 3.1,
3.5, 4.3.1, 5.1, 5.5, 7.1.7 and 7.2, Annexes B and C, and Table C.1 of which have been technically revised.

ISO 15535:2006(E)
Introduction
The well-being of people is very much dependent on their proportional and geometric relationship with several
factors, such as growth, design principles for clothing, transportation, workplace and homes, as well as
sporting and recreational activities. Implementation of databases on body dimensions of a population supports
essential health and safety requirements, as well as International Standards in the field of machinery safety
and personal protective equipment, and has acquired importance in the devising of computer-generated
manikins of the human body.
One of the major difficulties in formulating international databases on anthropometry is that the numerous
existing studies of peoples are rarely comparable in the strictest sense. Difficulties arise in comparing one
study with another because either the methods used differ or they are not sufficiently well described. The
anthropometric standards used for the data collection are fundamental to setting up any anthropometric
databases.
This International Standard is intended to be used in close conjunction with ISO 7250. The ultimate goal is
that a database developed by one researcher could be easily used by other researchers. This would be in a
form that is readily accessible by those responsible for developing standards in support of good design and
health and safety requirements (e.g. ISO 15534 and ISO 14738). To achieve this goal, it has been necessary
to develop an appropriate International Standard to ensure that anthropometric databases and their
associated reports are internationally compatible.
INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 15535:2006(E)
General requirements for establishing anthropometric
databases
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies general requirements for anthropometric databases and their associated
reports that contain measurements taken in accordance with ISO 7250.
It provides necessary information, such as characteristics of the user population, sampling methods,
measurement items and statistics, to make international comparison possible among various population
segments. The population segments specified in this International Standard are people who are able to hold
the postures specified in ISO 7250.
