This document is applicable to environmental matters for a digital service. It establishes requirements and recommendations applicable for requirements gathering, design, implementation, operations, maintenance and the end of life of digital services in order to minimise adverse environmental impacts during all stages of its life cycle. It also establishes a common language and understanding on this subject. This document focuses on reducing the environmental impacts of a digital service. It therefore does not address all aspects of digital service design. For example, it does not address other aspects such as performance, resilience, reliability, availability or development language choice (see other standards covering these topics, e.g. ISO/IEC 25010 and ISO/IEC 27001). This document does not include matters linked to other corporate social responsibility (CSR) topics, e.g. social, cultural, diversity, inclusion or exclusion. This document is applicable to all development methodologies (waterfall, agile, etc.).

The objective of this document is to conduct a neutral salt spray test in accordance with ISO 9227. The test is a proven method for assessing the corrosion protection of coatings of components such as bolts. For this reason, two coating variants were chosen for conducting the tests on hexagon bolts with a size of M6 × 50. The bolts were examined at specified points in time and the time of occurrence of grey veil, white rust and red rust was documented. The corrosivity of the salt spray was determined by means of two methods and also documented in an evaluation form. These two methods are the assessment of the mass loss of an uncoated steel panel as specified in ISO 9227 as well as the determination of the time until appearance of red rust on hot-dip galvanized steel panels in accordance with ISO 4042 and ISO 10683. The processing steps are specified in detail in a manual that was provided to the test participants. If followed precisely, these instructions allow for a comparative analysis of the results from the individual labs and make it possible to determine the reproducibility of the salt spray test. Another objective is to compare the two methods used to determine the corrosivity of the salt spray in order to establish the suitability of these methods by comparing the corrosion assessment results obtained for the bolts. In addition, the normative operating parameters (temperature in the test cabinet, collection rate, pH and density or NaCl concentration of the solution collected) were documented for every inspection date in order to ascertain whether there is any correlation with the results of the corrosion assessment performed on the bolts.

This document provides a generic description of the methods available for measuring soil characteristics and indicators of core ecological soil functions. No distinction of context is made, i.e. no differentiation of land use and management (e.g agricultural, forest, urban, natural or contaminated lands). For each ecological soil function, the document specifically lists biotic and abiotic characteristics that can be measured. It focuses on characteristics and indicators that are either available as ISO documents or published in peer-reviewed papers. This document applies to ecological soil functions and is not applied to soil functions such as geotechnical functions (foundation support for buildings, tunnels, etc.) or geothermal functions. Indeed, ecosystem services do not address soils without a topsoil, or with a covered topsoil (buildings, infrastructure, greenhouse farming, solar panel parks). Methods and indicators for ecological soil functions can help in the assessment of soil-related ecosystem services but the overall assessment of ecosystem services is not covered in this document. Other methods based on proxy indicators (e.g. soil occupation, hydrography parameters) can also be used for land planning at large scale. These indicators are not included in this document.
