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.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the
editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www.iso.org/directives).
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. Details of
any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or
on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www.iso.org/patents).
Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not
constitute an endorsement.
For an explanation of the voluntary nature of standards, the meaning of ISO specific terms and
expressions related to conformity assessment, as well as information about ISO’s adherence to
the World Trade Organization (WTO) principles in the Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT), see
www.iso.org/iso/foreword.html.
This document was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 37, Language and terminology,
Subcommittee SC 3, Management of terminology resources.
This first edition of ISO 12620-2, together with ISO 12620-1:2022, cancels and replaces ISO 12620:2019,
which has been divided into parts and technically revised. The main changes are as follows:
— ISO 12620:2019 described procedures for defining data categories used in language resources and
described requirements for maintaining a pragmatic, consensus-based repository of harmonized
data category specifications for use in language resources. ISO 12620-1 has been narrowed to focus
on the structure and rationale associated with data category specifications per se.
— The sections of ISO 12620:2019 that dealt with the creation and maintenance of data category
repositories have been moved to this document.
A list of all parts in the ISO 12620 series can be found on the ISO website.
Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A

Introduction
ISO 12620-1 provides requirements and recommendations governing data category specifications for
language resources. It specifies mechanisms for creating, documenting, harmonizing and maintaining
data category specifications in a data category repository (DCR) with the goal of increasing the
interoperability of language resources such as terminological resources, lexicographical resources and
annotated text corpora. This document specifies procedures and practices for the creation, management
and maintenance of DCRs.
Interoperability of language resources is a key factor for supporting innovation and progress in various
focus areas of the language industry, such as terminology management, natural language processing
and annotation schemes. These areas support important sectors of the economy and social development
such as global communication and trade, knowledge extraction and content management.
Researchers and software developers working with language resources benefit greatly from being
able to access a trusted source of information about data categories. Providing a precise description
of the data categories that are used within a given data collection allows for a quick diagnosis of its
compatibility with other data collections or its suitability for use in computer processes. A DCR
containing vetted data category specifications provides users with the information they need in
order to implement data categories in a manner that is consistent with other users. Consequently, the
interoperability of language resources is greatly enhanced.
Data category specifications are normally stored in electronic format in a specially designed database.
This database is called a “data category repository (DCR)”. Today, it is essential for DCRs to be sharable
for all stakeholders. See, for instance, Reference [3], a DCR for language resource descriptions named
DatCatInfo.
