Technical standards, standards organizations, and standardization across science and technology.

NSSN: A National Resource for Global Standards http://www.nssn.org/Serves as a central point to search for standards information from many sources and serves as a gateway connecting those who seek standards to those that supply them.
Language Icon http://www.languageicon.org/The language icon aims to create an artificial globally recognizeable icon, to be used not only web but for real life applications as well to choose language. Sample logo, vector source and implementation examples can be found here.
Subcategories
ComputingElectrical Engineering Sites on standards in electrical engineering. Standards organizations are to be fount not here but in Science/Reference/Standards/Organizations.
Environmental Practice International or other non-governmental standards applicable to environmental management and practice. NOT about regulatory standards.
Individual Standards This category is for any pages that give information on the content of particular standards. It probably does not make sense to include any page from a standards organization which is the catalog
entry and/or for-pay download page for a standards - after all there are hundreds of thousands of standards documents around, and with almost all standards orgs going to offer their catalogs on the Web in the near future we'd get hundreds of thousands of entries in this category. This category "Individual Standards" should rather take informational pages about certain standards. If a standard is important to a large number of users someone, somewhere is going to write a page describing the rationale for and application of the standard, like e.g. http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/iso-paper.html does for the paper size standard ISO 216 and related standards. The category "Individual Standards" differs from the subject-centered categories under Science/Reference/Standards (e.g. /Telecommunications) in that it is for pages on particular standards rather than about what standards are significant for a particular application or field. The names subcats of this category should be the official designation of the standard. If several official designations are used (like e.g. EN 29000 which is essentially the same document as ISO 9000) @links should be used. It should be noted that the Open Directory Project is NOT a standards body, and will not warrant that links within this category point to documents which are the most relevant, or even the latest versions of such information, or even that the standards mentioned are even still current and in force. All users of standards should consult with official documentation and standards before making any important decisions in this area. There are many standards that could be listed in this category, and we ask that any user finding useful sites that could be included in this category to please submit them. If a subcategory does not already exist then please submit in this category, and a suitable sub-category can soon be created.
(less...) InternetOrganizationsQualityStandard Document Vendors Corporations and organizations which sell standard documents, in paper and/or electronic form. Standards documents are copyrighted and are usually sold at prices that are not nominal but rather
substantial when compared to other publications of a comparable amount of content. That is because the sale of standards documents is most standardization organizations' main source of revenue. Please note that standards documents are usually also available from the issuing standardization organizations.

Czech Normy jsou tzv. dokumentované dohody obsahující technické specifikace a další kriteria pro materiály, výrobky, postupy a služby tak, aby vyhovovaly danému účelu. Jsou kvalifikovanými
doporučeními a jejich používání je dobrovolné. Pojem "závazné normy" zmizel z terminologie české technické normalizace v roce 2000. Závaznými právními předpisy jsou nařízení vlády, která stanoví technické požadavky pro konkrétní výrobky a zařízení. Tzv. "harmonizované normy" jsou normy sladěné s těmito nařízeními vlády.

Metrology Metrology is the scientific study of measurement.Legal metrology is the part of metrology where regulations are implemented in order to ensure an appropriate level of credibility in measurement
results, whenever conflicting interests exist, or when incorrect measurement results may adversely affect individuals or society itself.(Not to be confused with meteorologythe study of the processes and phenomena of the atmosphere, especially as a means of forecasting the weather.)

Units of Measurement Online calculators and other resources for converting metric units to U.S. units, converting ancient measuring units to modern units, and converting within a
measurement system (such as from liters to cubic meters).
