The GDST anticipates that the standard documented in the packet of materials will not address every supply chain contingency, certification scheme, or regulatory requirement. Because of the extensibility of EPCIS, there is the potential to have “too much” flexibility, wherein solution providers and seafood companies represent this information in divergent methods. To have a concerted approach and standard reference, the GDST has created this GitHub repository to extend documentation to new or non-normative situations, such as:
- Specific documentation to common certifications
- E.g. MSC/ASC and Fair Trade.
- Regulatory guidance
- E.g. SIMP or EU eCDT
- Gear type documentation
- E.g. trawling catch events
- Species specific documentation
- Representing life cycle events for specific aquaculture species
The GDST GitHub utilizes the ticket system already in use to flag and process manage new issues or documentation needs. The site uses Spectrum for users to discuss in process issues, and the site will be moderated by the GDST secretariat.
