This document specifies the determination of height-resolved profiles of atmospheric backscattering by means of active optical sounding. The measurements allow the following properties of the atmosphere up to several kilometres above ground to be derived:
cloud bases;
upper boundaries of optically thin clouds;
upper and lower boundaries and internal structures of particle layers:
height of structures, e.g. inversions, boundary layer height, mixing layer height (under suitable conditions);
attenuated backscatter of the particles;
particle backscatter and extinction coefficients (requires further assumptions).
The document also addresses the depolarisation lidar and the use of multi-wavelength systems. This allows further parameters to be determined:
particle size classification (Ångström exponent, colour ratio);
shape classification (linear depolarisation degree).
The following fields of application are particularly important:
air quality monitoring (vertical structure of the boundary layer);
aviation safety (cloud base and visual range) (see ISO 28902-1[8]);
particle content and transport (e.g. volcanic dust);
weather forecasting and climate modelling (e.g. atmospheric boundary layer, cloud base, cloud microphysics);
satellite remote sensing (validation).
Examples that illustrate these applications are discussed in Annex A.
The benefits of scanning systems for parameters mentioned above are also discussed in Clause A.7.
In addition, particle backscatter lidars that measure at least two carefully selected wavelengths can be used to determine atmospheric gas concentrations. This is known as the differential absorption lidar “DIAL” technique. This technique is not part of this document and has been described in VDI 4210-1[12].
This document does not specify extended lidar techniques that monitor the following parameters quantitatively: inelastic scattering effects such as, Raman scattering, Doppler broadening, Doppler shift, multiple scattering, modulation techniques, and spectral separation of molecular and particle backscattering [high spectral resolution lidar (HSRL)]. Some of these extended techniques are or will be described in other parts of the ISO 28902 series.

This document specifies a method for assessing the impact of ultrafine bubbles (UFBs) on membrane antifouling using the crossflow filtration system as the evaluation setup. The evaluation compares the membrane fouling behaviour of the original wastewater (control) with that of the same wastewater after UFB generation under specified operating conditions. This document is applicable to dispersions containing UFBs, including dispersions in which microbubbles (MBs) are present in combination with UFBs. The method employs the crossflow membrane fouling index (CMFI), measured under constant transmembrane pressure during crossflow filtration as the evaluation criterion. This method is applicable to various membrane treatment systems including ultrafiltration, nanofiltration, and reverse osmosis and can be used for different types of wastewater containing particulates, colloids, and soluble organic matter. This method is primarily intended for dispersions containing UFBs (see Annexes A to C and E); however, it is equally applicable, by analogy, to dispersions containing MBs (see Annex D). This document can guide the design and optimization of industrial processes that integrate FB technologies for enhanced membrane antifouling. NOTE 1 This method is intended for waters that contain a measurable amount of either particulate matter or colloidal matter, or both. It is not applicable to essentially particle-free waters, such as permeate from reverse osmosis or ultrafiltration systems. NOTE 2 Users can record supplementary information, e.g., turbidity, total suspended solids, and particle-size distribution; however, such data are not required in this document.

This document specifies two evaluation methods for ozone content (total ozone, including ozone contained in ultrafine bubbles (UFBs) or microbubbles (MBs) and dissolved ozone) in UFB dispersions in water, namely, iodometric titration and UV photometry. Iodometric titration is applicable as a well-established, high accuracy chemical procedure, particularly suitable for single-point determinations. The direct measurement range of this technique is typically 0,01 mg/l to 50 mg/l. Ultraviolet (UV) photometry is applicable for rapid or continuous measurement and real-time monitoring. Its typical measurement range is from 0,075 mg/l to 200 mg/l, depending on instrument specification. This document is applicable to industrial processes that require precise ozone dosing and control when MB or UFB systems are used. NOTE This document does not involve the specific effects of ozone UFB dispersion applications. High concentrations of dissolved oxygen (DO), commonly found in water containing oxygen UFBs, can interfere with iodometric titration and lead to overestimation of ozone content. When extremely high ozone levels are expected, water containing oxygen UFBs can be used as the blank control.

IEC TS 62607-6-36:2026, which is a Technical Specification, establishes a standardized method to determine the key control characteristic
• reduction status
for graphene oxide (GO) and reduced graphene oxide (rGO) by
• ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis).
The reduction status is not a quantitative value, but rather a compilation (table) of six parameters extracted from UV-Vis absorption spectra. These six parameters can be obtained from GO and rGO as follows:
(1) the peak location of GO, (2) the shoulder peak of GO, (3) the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the main absorption peak of GO, (4) the peak location of rGO, (5) FWHM of the main absorption peak of rGO and (6) the spectral peak shifts between GO and rGO.
• The method is applicable to the characterization of GO and rGO materials (where rGO is obtained from the corresponding GO) produced by different reduction techniques, as well as to commercial products in solution or film form.
• Individual GO or rGO materials can also be characterized, but only partial parameters can be obtained. Specifically, peak location, FWHM, and shoulder peak can be measured from each GO or rGO material, while peak shift requires both GO and its corresponding rGO for comparison.
• The method is suitable for quality assurance and for monitoring the reduction process during the production of rGO.
• The method does not provide full chemical analysis. Complementary techniques can be required beyond the UV-Vis spectral features.

This document specifies the behaviour of web application programming interfaces (APIs) that provide access to tiles of one or more geospatial data resources (collections) that the web API offers.
This document describes how to:
discover which resources offered by the web API can be retrieved as tiles;
get metadata about the available tile sets (including according to which tile matrix set each tile set is partitioned and the limits of that tile set within a common potentially global tile matrix set);
request a tile.
The core conformance class is defined in a way that can be easily included in a web API, even if that API does not conform to the OGC API – Common Standard. A web API can combine some requirements classes of this document with those of other OGC API standards (including OGC API – Common) to extend the scope of the web API by adding functionality.
