NOC Classification Changelog

All notable changes to rules impacting the tagging of NOC will be documented in this file.

Attention:

A new major version of the LOT has been released. Please read more here on our Knowledge Base.

The release of version 7 (v7) does not immediately take away the option to use version 6 (v6) in our API’s. While our users take time exploring v7, we will be maintaining and improving a v6 classifier as well. You will see this change log used to history both versions of the taxonomy until v7 is officially implemented.

If you have questions, please contact us by emailing our engineering team at [email protected].
