Iso output missing ISO/IEC 18013-5:2021 #776

Open marcoscaceres opened 5 months ago

I'm not sure how the ISO script works, but it's missing "ISO/IEC 18013-5:2021 Personal identification ISO-compliant driving licenses".

Should I add it manually or can someone look at what's going on with the iso_jtc1_sc29.js script?

To your question, the ISO script itself only captures specs developed by the ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 29 committee (Coding of audio, picture, multimedia and hypermedia information). They are the ones that tend to be used for references in a web context.

The one you added is from the ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 17 committee (Cards and security devices for personal identification).

The script itself could be applied to specs developed by any ISO committee. It's just that ISO has more than 25000 standards in its catalog.

Sorry, should have re-checked the code before writing the comment, that's completely wrong. The script does not download JSON exports from the ISO web site but rather from a specific JSON export maintained under windows.net, that seems to have been created for the DASH Industry Forum and that is specific to SC 29. The ISO web site does not expose its catalog through JSON files directly (and the API portal seems restricted to ISO members).
