ISO 20652:2006

Space data and information transfer systems — Producer-archive interface — Methodology abstract standard

ISO 20652:2006 identifies, defines and provides structure to the relationships and interactions between an information producer and an archive. It defines the methodology for the structure of actions that are required from the initial time of contact between the producer and the archive until the objects of information are received and validated by the archive. These actions cover the first stage of the ingest process as defined in the open archival information system (OAIS) reference model (see ISO 14721). ISO 20652:2006 describes parts of the functional entities administration (‘negotiate submission agreement’) and ingest (‘receive submission’ and ‘quality assurance’).
