The U.S.Coast Guard has a website called International Ice Patrol that has some size classifications for icebergs. It also has some shape classifications. Since this seems to be part of the source for Wikipedia, it may not give you everything you need, but it may help.There is a model for non-tabular iceberg classification in addition to the general table of size classificaton for icebergs in general.

Some additional info--possibly all from Coast guard originally:

These site gives some guidelines for iceberg coding that the Canadians and US use:
