• Standard and performance: what the current edition says and what the literature reports — a nine-section report with 27 references. What detector classes were and why the current edition of the standard deleted them, what each technology measures and what it cannot see, what performance the literature reports, and which location networks exist in the region today.
• The eight questions for evaluating an offer — a checklist with the way to require each answer using the metrics of the current standard. Designed to paste into a statement of requirements.
