Industrial automation systems and integration — Integration of life-cycle data for process plants including oil and gas production facilities — Part 6: Rules for the development and validation of reference data of ISO/TS 15926-4

This document specifies technical requirements for the structure and content of a reference data library for ISO/TS 15926-4. NOTE This document can also be applied to reference data libraries other than ISO/TS 15926-4. The following are within the scope of this document: — identification of a reference data item as specified in ISO/TS 15926-4; — information that defines a reference data item; — the way identifying and defining information is recorded using ISO 15926-2; — the reference data library that contains the reference data items necessary to record identification and defining information; — the representation of the reference data library that is defined by this document as a spreadsheet. The following are outside the scope of this document: — administrative information about the source, the history of changes, and the current status of a reference data item and a reference data library; — the way administrative information is recorded using ISO 15926-2; — the reference data library that contains the reference data items necessary to record administrative information; — defining the scope of reference data libraries within the ISO 15926 series; — methods and guidelines for implementing ISO 15926-2; — procedures for maintaining reference data libraries; — requirements for the representation of a proprietary reference data library.
