Scope
Standardization primarily, but not exclusively in the field of still picture imaging - chemical and electronic - including, but not limited to:
- definitions for still imaging systems;
- methods for measuring, testing, rating, packaging, labelling, specifying and classifying the dimensions, physical properties and performance characteristics of media, materials and devices used in chemical and electronic still imaging;
- specifications and recommendations of logical and physical characteristics, practices, interfaces formats and metadata for still imaging capture, processing, and output systems; and
- methods, measurements, specifications, and recommended practices for storage, permanence, integrity and security of imaging media and materials, and imaging materials deposition.
Note:
Where actual or potential overlap in scope with other TCs/SCs such as ISO/TC 36, TC 46/SC 10, TC 130, TC 171, IEC/TC 100 and ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 28 exists, coordination through liaison or JWG with the concerned TC should be maintained or actively pursued.
