Security management systems for the supply chain — Electronic port clearance (EPC) — Part 2: Core data elements

ISO/PAS 28005-2:2009 contains technical specifications that facilitate efficient exchange of electronic information between ships and shore for coastal transit or port calls. It is intended to cover safety and security information requirements related mainly to the relationships between the ship and the port and coastal state authorities as defined below. ISO/PAS 28005-2:2009 contains the definition of core data elements for use in electronic port clearance (EPC) messages. It contains definitions of core data elements for electronic messaging between ships and shore in the areas of safety, security and marine operations. It does not define any structuring of messages or provide any guidance on what information is required for a particular purpose; it is rather a general data dictionary for safety, security or operation-related maritime information. It is intended for use in XML messages and will for that reason differ somewhat from the similar trade data elements directory (TDED) International Standard (ISO 7372). The core data elements defined in ISO/PAS 28005-2:2009 are specified so that their meaning and interpretation in general shall be independent of the context they are used in. ISO/PAS 28005-2:2009 does not define the message formats required to exchange information. ISO/PAS 28005-2:2009 contains definitions of core data elements for electronic port clearance. These elements cover all requirements for ship-to-shore and shore-to-ship reporting as defined in the following. All FAL standard declarations (FAL 1 to 7) as defined in the FAL Convention. ISPS reporting requirements as defined in ISPS and MSC 1130. All general ship reporting requirements as defined in IMO A.851] Recommended reporting on ship generated waste as defined in MEPC 644 (mandatory within the European Union, as described in EU/2000/59). Required reporting as defined in the bulk loading and unloading code IMO A.862. ETA reporting to pilot station as defined in IMO A.960. ISO/PAS 28005-2:2009 can also be used for information exchanges between the ship and the ship agent, the port as well as ship operator or manager. It will not necessarily cover issues such as customs clearance of imported or exported goods or transport service provisions to goods owners.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
In other circumstances, particularly when there is an urgent market requirement for such documents, a
technical committee may decide to publish other types of document:
⎯ an ISO Publicly Available Specification (ISO/PAS) represents an agreement between technical experts in
an ISO working group and is accepted for publication if it is approved by more than 50 % of the members
of the parent committee casting a vote;
⎯ an ISO Technical Specification (ISO/TS) represents an agreement between the members of a technical
committee and is accepted for publication if it is approved by 2/3 of the members of the committee casting
a vote.
An ISO/PAS or ISO/TS is reviewed after three years in order to decide whether it will be confirmed for a
further three years, revised to become an International Standard, or withdrawn. If the ISO/PAS or ISO/TS is
confirmed, it is reviewed again after a further three years, at which time it must either be transformed into an
International Standard or be withdrawn.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent
rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights.
ISO/PAS 28005-2 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 8, Ships and marine technology.
ISO/PAS 28005 consists of the following parts, under the general title Security management systems for the
supply chain — Electronic port clearance (EPC):
⎯ Part 2: Core data elements
The following part is under preparation:

PUBLICLY AVAILABLE SPECIFICATION ISO/PAS 28005-2:2009(E)

Security management systems for the supply chain —
Electronic port clearance (EPC) —
Part 2:
Core data elements
1 Scope
1.1 General
This part of ISO/PAS 28005 contains technical specifications that facilitate efficient exchange of electronic
information between ships and shore for coastal transit or port calls. It is intended to cover safety and security
information requirements related mainly to the relationships between the ship and the port and coastal state
authorities as defined in this subclause.
This part of ISO/PAS 28005 contains the definition of core data elements for use in electronic port clearance
(EPC) messages. It contains definitions of core data elements for electronic messaging between ships and
shore in the areas of safety, security and marine operations. It does not define any structuring of messages or
provide any guidance on what information is required for a particular purpose; it is rather a general data
dictionary for safety, security or operation-related maritime information.
It is intended for use in XML messages and will for that reason differ somewhat from the similar trade data
elements directory (TDED) International Standard (ISO 7372).
The core data elements defined in this part of ISO/PAS 28005 are specified so that their meaning and
interpretation in general shall be independent of the context they are used in.
This part of ISO/PAS 28005 does not define the message formats required to exchange information.
1.2 Application of the core data elements
This part of ISO/PAS 28005 contains definitions of core data elements for electronic port clearance. These
elements cover all requirements for ship-to-shore and shore-to-ship reporting as defined in the following.
a) All FAL standard declarations (FAL 1 to 7) as defined in the FAL Convention.
b) ISPS reporting requirements as defined in ISPS and MSC 1130.
c) All general ship reporting requirements as defined in IMO A.851.
d) Recommended reporting on ship-generated waste as defined in MEPC 644 (mandatory within the
European Union, as described in EU/2000/59).
e) Required reporting as defined in the bulk loading and unloading code IMO A.862.
f) ETA reporting to pilot station as defined in IMO A.960.
Annex L gives a cross-reference between the above references and the core data elements.

ISO/PAS 28005-2:2009(E)
This part of ISO/PAS 28005 can also be used for information exchanges between the ship and the ship agent,
the port and ship operator or manager. It will not necessarily cover issues such as customs clearance of
imported or exported goods or transport service provisions to goods owners.
1.3 Types of data elements defined by this part of ISO/PAS 28005
Figure 1 shows some of the types of elements that are defined and referenced in this part of ISO/PAS 28005.
The grey boxes represent objects that are not defined in this part of ISO/PAS 28005, but which are
respectively basis information and results of using this part of ISO/PAS 28005.
The top-most grey box represents standard data types as defined in XML Schema Part 2 (XSD-2). The
bottom-most grey box represents an electronic XML message, containing data elements defined by using this
part of ISO/PAS 28005.

Figure 1 — Elements of this part of ISO/PAS 28005
Figure 1 does not include all elements in each group, but has selected a few from each group as examples.
From the top downwards, the defined elements are as follows.
⎯ Adapted XSD types: These are basic XSD types with additional restrictions that apply for the use of these
elements in this part of ISO/PAS 28005.
⎯ General data types: These are data types that represent common concepts like a port description or a
certificate which normally need to be specialised more to be given a context-specific meaning.
⎯ Core data types: These are data types that also contain a contextual meaning to the more generic
concept, such as an arrival port instead of a general port or a reporting location instead of a general
location.
This part of ISO/PAS 28005 does not prohibit the use of other data types than the EPC Core Elements when
messages are defined (this is indicated with the thin arrows in Figure 1). However, such data elements will be
given a specific semantic meaning in the specification of the message format.

1.4 Structure of the data element descriptions
Figure 2 gives an outline of the structure of this part of ISO/PAS 28005. The two rectangles at the top
represent the general data types discussed in the previous clause while the row of rectangles at the bottom
represents the EPC core elements.
Adapted XSD types
 (Clause 5)
General data types (Clause 6)
Cargo Class and Crew and Security Service Ship ID Ship Vessel Waste and
certificates passenger related particulars operation environment
7.2 7.3 7.4 7.5 7.6 7.7 7.8 7.9 7.10

Figure 2 — Overview of the structure of this part of ISO/PAS 28005
The groups are:
a) Cargo: data related to cargo and cargo types.
b) Class and certificates: data related to class and certificates kept onboard.
c) Crew and passenger: crew and passenger related data.
d) Security: mainly ISPS-related data.
e) Service related: data related to services requested by the ship, including message headers and clearance
request and status.
f) Ship ID: ship identification and contact details.
g) Ship particulars: static data about the ship.
h) Vessel operation: data that is dependent on current operation or voyage; also physical data that changes,
e.g. with loading such as draught.
i) Waste and environment: currently, this section contains information about waste.
The grouping of core elements is for convenience only and need not result in any particular structuring of EPC
messages. Additionally, the data elements, when defined in an XSD file, will not use any formal grouping (all
data elements will have the same name space).

4 General provisions
4.1 Use of XML name space
4.1.1 XSD name space
[20][21]
All data elements defined in the Schema standards and which are used in this part of ISO/PAS 28005,
use the name space “xs”. Thus, the data type name will be prefixed with “xs:”. This corresponds to the XSD
definition file header including the following attribute:

4.1.2 ISO 28005-1 name space
All data types defined in this part of ISO/PAS 28005 will be defined in the namespace “epc”. Thus, the data
type name will be prefixed with “epc:”. This corresponds to the XSD file header including the following
attribute:

4.2 Principle for creating tag names in a message file
This part of ISO/PAS 28005 defines data types that can be used to construct an XML message for exchange
of information between ship and shore. Each information element in the XML file shall have a tag name
derived from the corresponding core data type defined in this part of ISO/PAS 28005. The following rules
apply:
a) If the information element in the XML file corresponds directly to a core data type defined in this part of
ISO/PAS 28005, the tag name of that information element shall be the same as that for the type name
without the trailing “Type” or “ContentType” that the core data type has.
b) If a new information element is created, it should get a name and type which reflects the principles
employed in this part of ISO/PAS 28005.

3) The ISM code is defined in Chapter IX of Reference [8].
4) The ISPS code is defined in Chapter XI-2 of of Reference [8].

4.3 Structure of data type definitions
4.3.1 Name
All data types defined in this part of ISO/PAS 28005 will be given a name that is also included as the first part
of the heading for the clause where the data type is defined.
[19]
The data type name follows the specifications for XML tag names , with the following additional constraints:
a) The name will always end with the string “Type”.
b) Enumerated data types will have the postfix “ContentType”.
NOTE 1 Some core data elements can also have the ending “Type”. In that case, the corresponding core data
type will have the postfix “TypeType”.
c) This part of ISO/PAS 28005 will use the "Upper Camel Case" in all core data types, i.e. the f
