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

This document was prepared by Technical Committee 213, Dimensional and geometrical product
specifications and verification.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 14978:2006), which has been technically
revised. It also incorporates the Technical Corrigendum ISO 14978:2006/Cor. 1:2008.
The main changes compared to the previous edition are as follows:
— the terms and definitions have been updated relative to ISO/IEC Guide 99:2007;
— a number of design characteristics common in GPS measuring equipment have been added;
— an updated discussion of calibration and verification, including concepts from ISO 14253-5:2015,
has been added.
Any feedback or questions on this document should be directed to the user’s national standards body. A

Introduction
This document is a geometrical product specification (GPS) standard and is to be regarded as a general
GPS standard (see ISO 14638). It influences chain links F and G for measuring equipment and calibration
in the general GPS matrix model (see Annex E).
The ISO/GPS matrix model given in ISO 14638 gives an overview of the ISO/GPS system of which this
document is a part. The fundamental rules of ISO/GPS given in ISO 8015 apply to this document and
the default decision rules given in ISO 14253-1 apply to specifications made in accordance with this
document, unless otherwise indicated; see ISO/TR 14253-6 for additional information on the selection
of alternative decision rules.
For more detailed information of the relation of this document to other standards and the GPS matrix
model, see Annex E.
This document contains guidance for writing the standards for specific GPS measuring equipment.
This document is intended to give the user a basic understanding of the use of ISO standards for GPS
measuring equipment. This document presents and defines general concepts to be used in connection
with GPS measuring equipment to avoid multiple repetitions in the ISO standards for specific GPS
measuring equipment. This document is also intended as guidance for the manufacturer/supplier to
evaluate and present specifications for characteristics for GPS measuring equipment.
This document is necessary when reading and using ISO standards for specific GPS measuring
equipment.
