ISO/IEC 15416 Verification Method

10 scans worth of verification data are obtained every 8%.


The range of grades is A, B, C, D, F.
Grade | Numeric value |
---|---|
A | 4.0 |
B | 3.0 |
C | 2.0 |
D | 1.0 |
F | 0.0 |
The grade of each scan is converted to a numeric value according to the table on the left.

Scan | Grade | Numeric value |
---|---|---|
1 | A | 4.0 |
2 | A | 4.0 |
3 | B | 3.0 |
4 | B | 3.0 |
5 | A | 4.0 |
6 | A | 4.0 |
7 | C | 2.0 |
8 | F | 0.0 |
9 | D | 1.0 |
10 | A | 4.0 |
Average: 2.9
The average is calculated from the grades of the data from 10 scans. Then, this average is further classified into a grade according to the total grade judgement table.
In the example shown in the table on the left, the average is 2.9.

Average | ISO/IEC 15416 total grade |
---|---|
4.0 to 3.5 | A |
3.4 to 2.5 | B |
2.4 to 1.5 | C |
1.4 to 0.5 | D |
0.4 to 0.0 | F |
The total grade is determined for the calculated average according to the table on the left.
In this example, the average is 2.9, so the grade is “B.”
