AS ISO 15706.2:2017 PDF
Adopts ISO 15706-2:2007 to specify the structure and basic criteria for the assignment of an identifier for versions of audiovisual works and other content derived from or directly related to an audiovisual work.
This part of ISO 15706 defines the version identifier component of the ISAN system, specifies the rules for assignment of the ISAN version identifier, and the basic administration and registration procedures for the ISAN version identification system.
The Registration Authority for ISO 15706 is the entity charged with oversight of the ISAN version identification system. The Registration Authority maintains a database of all version registration records (the register), issues new version identifiers upon proper request, and establishes the necessary operational procedures to keep the system functioning properly.
Registration agencies are appointed by the Registration Authority to make version registration and information retrieval services available to those with a need to register new versions of audiovisual works or to obtain data about existing registrations. These registration agencies connect to the register maintained by the Registration Authority and provide services to applicants for new ISAN version identifiers, registrants of existing ISAN version identifiers, and other users. They do so by providing user access to the information in the version register and by making registration requests to the register on behalf of applicants for new version registrations. To reduce the operational burden on the register associated with user registration information lookups, registration agencies can keep local copies of all or part of the version registration database in accordance with data caching rules established by the Registration Authority.
