N2 - Uncertainty in prediction is usually considered to be related to the accuracy of the input data and the accuracy of the prediction method. This paper addresses another very important kind of uncertainty that is related to the (un)clearness of the prediction method and the interpretations software developers are forced to make while implementing ambiguous prediction algorithms. For most noise calculation standards there are no quality requirements and no test cases. The ultimate benefit of quality requirements would be that the calculated results with different software programs, using the same data input, can be expected to show just about the exact same results within a narrow margin, hereby avoiding incorrect comparisons between 2 different software implementations. This all changed in 2015 with the release of ISO/TR 17534-3. Since then the uncertainty when implementing the ISO 9613 method in software according to the quality requirements described in ISO/TR 17534-3, can be strongly reduced. This paper describes the findings of DGMR, member of the ISO 17534 working group, while using the recommendations of TR3 for the implementation of ISO 9613 in software.
