Application module: Colour | ISO/TS 10303-1002:2014-02(E) © ISO |
ISO 10303 is an International Standard for the computer-interpretable representation of product information and for the exchange of product data. The objective is to provide a neutral mechanism capable of describing products throughout their life cycle. This mechanism is suitable not only for neutral file exchange, but also as a basis for implementing and sharing product databases, and as a basis for retention and archiving.
This part of ISO 10303 specifies an application module for the definition of colour information. It does not provide specifications associated with the use of colours. Colours can be externally-defined, pre-defined or user-defined. A set of application modules can be combined to provide the capability to assign shape elements to layers and visual attributes, such as colours and curve fonts, to geometric and topological elements. For additional information, see Annex F of ISO/TS 10303-1009. The scope of this part of ISO 10303 overlaps with ISO 10303-517 and ISO 10303-520, and therefore this part of ISO 10303 shall not be used in conjunction in an application protocol or other application module that uses ISO 10303-517 and ISO 10303-520. There are name conflicts for the interpreted model EXPRESS entities draughting_model and mechanical_design_geometric_presentation_representation.This third edition of this part of ISO 10303 incorporates the modifications to the second edition listed in Annex F.3.
Clause 1 defines the scope of the application module and summarizes the functionality and data covered. Clause 3 lists the words defined in this part of ISO 10303 and gives pointers to words defined elsewhere. The information requirements of the application are specified in Clause 4 using terminology appropriate to the application. A graphical representation of the information requirements, referred to as the application reference model, is given in Annex C. Resource constructs are interpreted to meet the information requirements. This interpretation produces the module interpreted model (MIM). This interpretation, given in 5.1, shows the correspondence between the information requirements and the MIM. The short listing of the MIM specifies the interface to the resources and is given in 5.2. A graphical representation of the short listing of the MIM is given in Annex D.
In ISO 10303, the same English language words can be used to refer to an object in the real world or concept, and as the name of an EXPRESS data type that represents this object or concept.
The following typographical convention is used to distinguish between these. If a word or phrase occurs in the same typeface as narrative text, the referent is the object or concept. If the word or phrase occurs in a bold typeface or as a hyperlink, the referent is the EXPRESS data type.
The name of an EXPRESS data type can be used to refer to the data type itself, or to an instance of the data type. The distinction between these uses is normally clear from the context. If there is a likelihood of ambiguity, either the phrase "entity data type" or "instance(s) of" is included in the text.
Double quotation marks " " denote quoted text. Single quotation marks ' ' denote particular text string values.
