DIN EN ISO 9241-125:2016-06

ISO 9241-125 provides requirements and recommendations for the visual presentation of information and specific properties such as the syntactic or semantic aspects of information, e. g. coding techniques. These requirements and recommendations can be utilised throughout the design process (e. g., as specification and guidance for designers during design or as a basis for heuristic evaluation). This International Standard applies to visual user interfaces controlled by software. Requirements or recommendations that do not apply to specific types of visual interfaces clearly indicate any limitations to their applicability. It does not address specific details of charts, graphs or information visualization. ISO 9241-125 does not address auditory or tactile/ haptic presentation of information or modality shifting in order to present visual information in other modalities. ISO 9241-112 provides high level ergonomic guidance that applies to all modalities.
