ISO standards have always identified the characters used for transliteration by reference to ISO 5426. German standards have always identified the characters by reference to DIN 31624. Recent DIN standards identify the characters by reference to Unicode. Library of Congress rules have always identified the characters by reference to ANSI Z39.47. I believe there are mapping tables from ISO 5426, DIN 31624, ANSI Z39.47 to Unicode.
