classification
Explanation:
Yes, these websites have examples of usage:

Skibe, der var godt konstrueret, godt vedligeholdt, og som blev sejlet af erfarne søfolk, skulle derimod betale forholdsvis lavere præmier. Dette var den første form for klasning eller klassificering.
Klassificeringen, som vi kender den i dag, går tilbage til 1760



Ship Classification
DNV currently classifies more than 5000 ships totalling more than 100 million grt. This constitutes 16 percent of the world's fleet in tonnage terms.
