Information technology for learning, education and training - Metadata for learning resources - Part 3: Basic application profile (ISO/DIS 19788-3:2026)

The primary purpose of ISO/IEC 19788 is to specify metadata elements and their attributes for the description of learning resources. This includes the rules governing the identification of data elements and the specification of their attributes. ISO/IEC 19788 provides data elements for the description of learning resources and resources directly related to learning resources. ISO/IEC 19788-3:2011 is designed to help implementers with a starting point for adopting ISO/IEC 19788, defining an application profile that specifies, through adding constraints to the use of some data elements, how the ISO/IEC 19788-2 element set can be used.

Customer Data Access and Portability in the Insurance Sector – Part 1: Semantic interface and data model

Article 20 GDPR and Article 4 and 5 the proposed FIDA Regulation require the data access and portability of customer data. To support this demand CEN/TC 445 will organise the standardisation project with its Working Group 1 in which the following European standardisation deliverable will be developed. European Standard (EN) for the semantic specification of the interfaces The scope of this EN for customer (natural or legal person) data access and portability in the insurance sector should be based on the insurance-specific part of the proposed FIDA Regulation and therefore should contain: • Semantic specifications for the processes to support the data access and portability. These specifications define on the business level the functions and the behaviour for the following process interfaces: - Request of the customer to the data holder for an actual transfer of the customer data (Article 4 FIDA). - Transfer of the requested customer data from the data holder to the requesting customer (Article 4 FIDA). - Request of a data user to a data holder for an actual transfer of customer data under a permission of the customer (Article 5 FIDA). - Transfer of the requested customer data from the data holder to the requesting data user (Article 5 FIDA). • Sematic specifications for the customer data to be transferred by the above processes. The scope of the customer data will be limited to the insurance-specific part of the FIDA proposal defined in the Article 2 (1) and Article 3 (3) of FIDA. These specifications define on the business level each element of the customer data with identification, name, precise definition, and value type (text, number, amount, quantity, percentage, date, etc.). The composition of these data elements forms a semantic data model for the insurance-specific customer data. The data model will consist of the following parts: - General data of the policy holder (including address, contact details, profession, payment means, etc.). - General data of the insurance policy (including policy number, insurance product and coverages, insured period, premium amounts, etc.). - Data specific to the consumers’ insured assets which are collected for the purposes of a demands and needs test. - Data depending on class of business, such as - Motor insurance (details about vehicle, usage, drivers), - Property insurance (details about building, household or other objects), - Liability insurance (details about insured persons and their activities), - Accident insurance (details about insured persons and their activities), - Insurance-based investment products (details about insured persons and the savings, investments, pension rights, etc.). The EN specifies the processes and the data model on the semantic level in a syntax-neutral format, independent from its representation in a concrete implementation syntax.

Stationary source emissions - Determination of the mass concentration of PCDDs/PCDFs and dioxin-like PCBs - Part 5: Long-term sampling of PCDDs/PCDFs/PCBs

This document specifies the long-term sampling of PCDDs/PCDFs/PCBs. There are three different sampling methods, which are based on the three different principles described in EN 1948-1, but partially modified for long-term sampling requirements: — filter/condenser method; — dilution method; — cooled probe method. Each sampling method is illustrated in detail in Annex D. The sampling methods described in this document are designed for a sampling duration of typically up to four weeks. Additionally, this document specifies a framework of quality control requirements for any long-term sampling method. With the methods described, experiences were gained for a concentration range up to 4,0 ng TEQ/m3 at various stationary sources (e.g. waste incinerators, sinter plants, cement kilns). For complete implementation of the measurement method, the use of EN 1948-2 and EN 1948-3 describing extraction, clean-up, identification, and quantification, respectively, is necessary in order to determine PCDDs/PCDFs. Additionally, EN 1948-4 is necessary for PCBs.

Devices to prevent pollution by backflow of potable water - Unrestricted air gap-Family A - Type A

This document specifies the characteristics and the requirements of unrestricted air gap Family A, Type A for nominal flow velocity not exceeding 3 m/s. Air gaps are devices for protection of potable water in water installations from pollution by backflow. This document applies to air gaps in factory-assembled products and to constructed air gaps in situ and specifies requirements and methods to verify and ensure compliance with this document during normal working use. The fluid in the receiving vessel is assumed to have similar properties to the water supply. Where this is not the case, additional care or tests could be required to verify the efficacy of the solution in practical use. The AA device is intended to be used in potable water installations according to EN 806 (series). Sanitary tapware when installed onto a receiving vessel (e.g. washbasin etc.) might have some restriction of its overflow. This will not compromise the water supply as the tapware might have an air gap, as detailed for example in EN 200 (dimension E), that provides an air gap disconnection. If this is the case, then backflow protection will be assumed to be adequate, and no further testing/verification will be needed.

Granular waste materials, sludges, soil, soil-like materials and sediments - Leaching - Compliance test for leaching - Part 2: One-stage batch test at a liquid-to-solid ratio of 10L/kg for materials with particle size below 4 mm (with or without size reduction)

This document in the series specifies a compliance test providing information on leaching of granular waste materials, sludges, soil, soil-like materials and sediments under the experimental conditions specified hereafter, and particularly a liquid to solid ratio of 10 L/kg dry matter. It applies to materials which have a particle size below 4 mm without or with size reduction. This document has been developed to investigate the leaching of inorganic and non-volatile organic substances from granular waste materials, sludges, soil, soil-like materials and sediments. It does not take into account the consequences of microbiological processes in organic degradable materials. The test procedure specified in this document produces an eluate which is subsequently characterized physically and chemically according to appropriate standard methods. This document includes two different procedures for eluate preparation prior to analysis, one procedure for non-volatile organic substances, inorganic substances and DOC and one for inorganic substances and DOC. When assessing only the leaching of inorganic substances and DOC, certain precautions are needed when assessing the leaching of organic substances can in some cases be omitted. This procedure cannot be applied to materials with a water content or such a water affinity that a good mixing of the solid with the predetermined quantity of liquid is not achievable. This procedure does not apply to materials reacting with the leachant, leading, for example, to excessive gas emission, a solidifying effect or an excessive heat release. In that case, the material can be wetted prior to carrying out the leaching test. This test cannot be used alone to determine the leaching behaviour of granular waste materials, sludges, soil, soil-like materials and sediments, as specified in EN 12920. This document does not address issues related to health and safety.
