Data produced during scientific and technical activities usually have value as standard reference data (SRD) which is a well-documented numeric value assessed for reliability and accuracy. The main criteria in the evaluation for SRD is how well their production is documented including a sample preparation, measurement method, data processing and so on, other than reference data. SRD is represented as a certified numeric value with uncertainty. In this study, the SRD in the area of material properties was introduced to provide understanding of SRD and its evaluation method. Also the national SRD system was studied. The national SRD system is composed of the center for the SRD, the data centers, and the committee. The role and task of those components were studied. The legislational and systematic supports for the system were proposed in this study.
