BS EN 9300-210:2026

This standard BS EN 9300-210:2026 Aerospace series. LOTAR -LOng Term Archiving and Retrieval of digital technical product documentation such as 3D, CAD and PDM data is classified in these ICS categories:

• 01.110 Technical product documentation
• 35.240.30 IT applications in information, documentation and publishing
• 49.020 Aircraft and space vehicles in general

1.1 In Scope From Clause 8 to Clause 15, the scope includes: - Management Information; - Product Design; - Change Management; - Documents; - Application of PDM-specific metadata (see EN 9300-21); - Definition of PDM-specific metadata for Archive Information Packages (AIP). Common Meta Data archive package requirements defined in EN 9300-21. A visual representation of the scope of this document can be seen in Figure 1. An overview of the various parts in the EN 9300-200 series is provided in Table 1. [Figure 1 - Scope of EN 9300-210 As Designed] [Table 1 - EN 9300 Part 200 series] This document does not attempt to specify how to create an OAIS/LOTAR information package. Nor does it address common issues in the archive domain, such as: snapshot vs. incremental archival methods (which are determined as part of the implementation of an archive system), or package-to-package linkages (Meta Data WG) or how to identify metadata for an archival package (Meta Data WG). Integration of PDM metadata with other domain and common metadata will be in EN 9300-021. The scope of EN 9300-210 is same as the EN 9300-001. 1.2 Out of scope This document does not attempt to describe how to create an OAIS/LOTAR information package. Nor does it address common issues in the archive domain, such as: snapshot vs. incremental archival methods (which are determined as part of the implementation of an archive system), or package-to-package linkages (Meta Data WG) or how to identify metadata for an archival package (Meta Data WG). For integration of PDM metadata with other domain and common metadata, see EN 9300-21.
