The CE-RISE project has developed an open solution for digital passports that combines structured data models and modular software into one coherent approach. It is a concrete result of the project, created to support the design, implementation, use, and further development of digital passport systems across different contexts and applications.
The Gap This Solution Was Built to Fill
Digital passports require more than isolated data structures or standalone software tools. They need interoperable information models, implementable technical components, and a clear way to connect both in practice. The CE-RISE solution addresses these needs together through a structured approach to passport data models, a modular software architecture, an interoperability-oriented design, and reusable implementation building blocks.
An Open and Modular Approach
At the core of the solution are two closely connected parts.
Data models provide the structure for passport information. They support semantic alignment, interoperability, specialisation, and the reuse of existing standards and ontologies.
The software architecture makes these models operational by supporting the creation, storage, retrieval, and exchange of passport information, while allowing integration with different services and backends.
The CE-RISE solution has been developed as an open, modular, and extensible approach that supports reuse, reduces barriers to entry, avoids lock-in, and enables progressive deployment according to different needs and levels of readiness. This makes it relevant not only as a project result, but also as a basis for future adoption, adaptation, and further development.
The Solution Website as Entry Point
solution.ce-rise.eu provides an accessible overview of the overall concept and structure, and guides visitors through the main areas of the solution, including its logic, capabilities, components, and supporting references.
Through the website, users can explore the solution from both a conceptual and a technical perspective. It serves as a gateway to the overall architecture, to the main building blocks of the information system, and to the technical materials that support understanding, reuse, and further development. This includes links to references, data models, and software resources connected to the solution.
