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 3.
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 International Standard may be the subject of
patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO 1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 213, Dimensional and geometrical product specifications and
verification.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 1:1975), which has been technically revised.
Specifically, the following points have changed:

the standard reference temperature has been modified; consequently, the title has been changed, and

the footnote, referring to a definition of the metre which no longer exists, has been deleted.

Annex A is for information only.

Introduction
This International Standard is a geometrical product specification (GPS) standard and is to be regarded as a global
GPS standard (see ISO/TR 14638). It influences all links in all chains of standards.
For more detailed information on the relationship of this International Standard to other standards and the GPS
matrix model, see annex A.
The standard reference temperature is now applied to the GPS specification, i.e. all GPS characteristics are
defined and specified at the standard reference temperature. Consequently, when measurements of geometrical
features of workpieces and/or metrological characteristics of measuring equipment are carried out, deviations from
the standard reference temperature will introduce errors and measurement uncertainties in the measurement
result.
The definitions of the units of length and temperature were determined and adopted by the International Committee
of Weights and Measures (CIPM) under the authority of the Convention of the Meter. These definitions are
published in the Procs-verbaux of the CIPM [4], [5], [6].
This International Standard does not require that all calibrations of metrological characteristics of measuring
equipment, workpiece measurements and manufacturing be carried out at the standard reference temperature.
Uncertainty in temperature measurement and measurement at temperatures other than the standard reference
temperature contribute to the uncertainty assessment of the measurement result and lead to systematic errors in
the measurement result. An ISO Technical Report [2] which discusses these issues is being prepared.

A.2 Information about this International Standard and its use

This International Standard is used whenever GPS specifications for workpieces and measuring equipment are
given. It constitutes the basis for the evaluation of measurement uncertainty.

A.3 Position in GPS matrix model

This International Standard is a global GPS standard, which influences all links in all chains of standards in the
general GPS matrix, as shown in Figure A.1.
