Today I read a paper and I saw the phrase "ISIC rev2 3-digit industry level". I am wondering what "rev2" stands for, I did a search but cannot find any explanation so far.

It stands for "second revision".

These standards are changed (revised) from time to time. This designation tells the reader which version is being referred to.

See https://unstats.un.org/unsd/classifications/Family/Detail/8 . There you can see that that Rev 2 is out of date and you should use Rev 4.

  • So, "rev" here is just the edition of the industry classification, the bottom line of this phrase is "ISIC 3-digit industry level", am I correct?
