Systèmes spatiaux — Definition des Niveaux de Maturité de la Technologie (NMT) et de leurs critères d'évaluation

Abstract / scope

ISO 16290:2013 defines Technology Readiness Levels (TRLs). It is applicable primarily to space system hardware, although the definitions could be used in a wider domain in many cases.

The definition of the TRLs provides the conditions to be met at each level, enabling accurate TRL assessment.
