ISO 9999:2022 Assistive Products Classification Dataset

Overview

Create a comprehensive JSON dataset representing the ISO 9999:2022 standard for assistive products classification. The dataset will follow the hierarchical three-level structure (classes → subclasses → divisions) with codes, terms, definitions, and explanatory notes.

Dataset Structure

The JSON dataset will be organized as follows:

{
  "metadata": {
    "standard": "ISO 9999:2022",
    "title": "Assistive products — Classification and terminology",
    "edition": "7th edition",
    "publication_date": "2022-05",
    "description": "Classification and terminology for assistive products designed to optimize functioning and reduce disability",
    "structure": {
      "levels": ["class", "subclass", "division"],
      "code_format": "numeric hierarchical codes"
    }
  },
  "classes": [
    {
      "code": "04",
      "term": "Assistive products for personal medical treatment",
      "definition": "Assistive products designed to support personal medical treatment and monitoring...",
      "notes": "...",
      "subclasses": [
        {
          "code": "04 03",
          "term": "Assistive products for measuring body functions",
          "definition": "Assistive products used to measure and monitor various body functions...",
          "notes": "...",
          "divisions": [
            {
              "code": "04 03 03",
              "term": "Blood pressure monitors",
              "definition": "Devices used to measure arterial blood pressure...",
              "notes": "..."
            }
          ]
        }
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Implementation Steps

  1. Create dataset schema file (iso9999_dataset.json)

    • Include metadata section with standard information
    • Define hierarchical structure for classes, subclasses, and divisions
    • Each entry includes: code, term, definition, notes (optional), and child elements
  2. Populate with comprehensive classification data

    • Include all major classes from ISO 9999:2022
    • Add representative subclasses and divisions for each class
    • Ensure proper hierarchical code structure (e.g., "04", "04 03", "04 03 03")
    • Include terms and definitions for each classification entry (class, subclass, division)
    • Include explanatory notes where applicable
  3. Add supporting documentation (README.md)

    • Document the dataset structure
    • Explain the classification hierarchy
    • Provide usage examples
    • Note any limitations (since full standard requires purchase)

Known ISO 9999 Categories (to include)

Based on research, the standard includes classes such as:

  • 04: Assistive products for personal medical treatment
  • 05: Assistive products for training in skills
  • 06: Orthoses and prostheses
  • 09: Assistive products for personal care and protection
  • 12: Assistive products for personal mobility
  • 15: Assistive products for housekeeping
  • 18: Furnishing and adaptations to homes and other premises
  • 22: Assistive products for communication and information
  • 24: Assistive products for handling objects and devices
  • 27: Assistive products for environmental improvement and assessment tools
  • 30: Assistive products for recreation

Files to Create

  • iso9999_dataset.json - Main dataset file with hierarchical classification structure
  • README.md - Documentation explaining the dataset structure and usage

Notes

  • The full ISO 9999:2022 standard is a paid document, so the dataset will be comprehensive but may not include every single entry from the official standard
  • The structure will be designed to be easily extensible if additional entries need to be added
  • Codes follow the hierarchical numeric format (e.g., "04", "04 03", "04 03 03")
  • Each level can have multiple children, creating a tree structure
