Description of ASTM-F3787 2026ASTM F3787-26Active Standard: Standard Terminology for Supply Chain LocationsASTM F3787Scope 1.1 Throughout the supply chain and the goods movement process, stakeholders and their systems need to know where things happen, their location. There are at least two levels at which the location question “where?” may be responded to: 1.1.1 Referring to the location by a commonly understood term for a class or category of locations, for example, at the port; or 1.1.2 providing an identifier associated with one specific instance of a class of locations, for example, at the port of USLGB (Port of Los Angeles Long Beach), where USLGB is the globally unique United Nations Location Code (UN/LOCODE) associated with the port of Los Angeles and Long Beach in the United States of America. 1.2 In this terminology document the focus is exclusively on the commonly understood terms and definitions referred to in 1.1.1 and not in 1.1.2. 1.3 To be able to respond to the “where?” question, parties involved in supply chains and goods movement process have developed and associated a vast array of attributes with a location that parties may use to “position” the location in space, generally on a map covering some part of planet Earth. Common examples of such attributes include postal addresses (which themselves are composed of several attributes) and geographical coordinates. In general, other standards development organizations (SDOs) have already defined quite well the terms associated with those attributes and ASTM will adopt and use those terms and definitions from other SDO sources. 1.4 It is important to note that a location may cover a surface area of very significant size (see the port example above). Within such an area, one or several smaller locations may be enclosed. This terminology document does not cover how to handle such location hierarchies; it will indicate, where appropriate, when a location is generally enclosed within another location. For instance, a maritime terminal is enclosed in a port, a berth is enclosed in a maritime terminal, and a berth position is enclosed in a berth. 1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety, health, and environmental practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. 1.6 This international standard was developed in accordance with internationally recognized principles on standardization established in the Decision on Principles for the Development of International Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.
