Master plan CR ISO/TR 14638 (October 1996)
Geometric product specification (GPS)

We have just highlighted the need to be able to link :

• the room imagined by the designer;

• the actual part manufactured ;

• knowledge of the part obtained by measurement.

To enable this relationship to take place and to ensure mutual understanding, standards have been developed in the GPS field, covering basic definitions, symbolic representation, measurement principles and so on.
