We report an uncertainty evaluation of an optical lattice clock based on the 1S0\ensuremath↔3P0 transition in the bosonic isotope 174Yb by use of magnetically induced spectroscopy. The absolute frequency of the 1S0\ensuremath↔3P0 transition has been determined through comparisons with optical and microwave standards at NIST. The weighted mean of the evaluations is \ensuremathν(174Yb)=518\phantom\rule0.2em0ex294\phantom\rule0.2em0ex025\phantom\rule0.2em0ex309\phantom\rule0.2em0ex217.8(0.9)\phantom\rule0.3em0exHz. The uncertainty due to systematic effects has been reduced to less than 0.8\phantom\rule0.3em0exHz, which represents 1.5\ifmmode×\else\texttimes\fi10^\ensuremath-15 in fractional frequency.
