TS EN 62656-1
Standardized product ontology register and transfer by spreadsheets - Part 1: Logical structure for data parcels
This part of IEC 62656 specifies the logical structure for a set of spreadsheets, used as “data
parcels”, to define, transfer and register product ontologies. Such ontology descriptions in
other literatures or disciplines are sometimes called “reference dictionaries”. Thus the logical
data structure described in this standard is named “Parcellized Ontology Model” or “POM” for
short, and each vehicle of transport of the model is called a “parcel”, and may be used for
definition, transfer, and registering of a reference dictionary as a collection of metadata, or for
similar purposes for instances belonging to a certain class of the reference dictionary.
Moreover, this ontology model allows for modelling or modifying an ontology model per se as
a set of instance data, thus it enables an ontology model to evolve over time.

About This Item
TS EN 62656-1 addresses the logical structure for using spreadsheets as data parcels to define, transfer, and register product ontologies. The standard frames this approach as the Parcellized Ontology Model (POM), a way to package ontology information into a structured vehicle that can support sharing, registration, and controlled evolution of product-related knowledge.
What a data parcel means in the POM context
In general technical terms, an ontology is a formal description of the concepts in a domain and the relationships between them. Here, a “parcel” is the spreadsheet-based transport unit for that description. This makes it possible to represent reference-dictionary-style information in a more organised and portable form, including metadata about classes, properties, and related instance information. The standard also states that the same model can be used not only for definition and transfer, but also to model or modify an ontology model itself as instance data over time.
Practical scope and boundaries
- It specifies the logical data structure for spreadsheet-based parcels used with product ontologies.
- It recognises ontology descriptions that may also be called reference dictionaries in other disciplines.
- It supports both metadata collections and instances belonging to a particular class in that dictionary.
- The POM concept is intended to let an ontology model evolve over time.
- It provides a structural framework for spreadsheet exchange rather than a claim about all possible ontology content rules.
