Secure and interoperable European Breeder Documents — Part 2: Data model

Scope

This document specifies the abstract data model for breeder document data and the specific encodings of this abstract data model used in the CEN breeder document framework.
The abstract data model is a semantic description of the birth, marriage / partnership, and death certificate data, independently from their specific encoding. This abstract data model is extensible for further standardized and proprietary data of birth, marriage / partnership, and death certificates as well as for other types of breeder documents.
This abstract data model is technology agnostic, i.e. it is applicable for paper-based, server-based, and hardware-based breeder documents as well as further breeder document designs and technologies.
The specific encodings of this abstract data model comprise the encodings to be used for the machine readable technologies specified in part 3 of the framework as well as the encoding of human readable breeder document data. These encodings are used in the birth, marriage / partnership, and death certificate profiles specified in part 4 of the framework.
