Project Purpose

Text Area
default<click here to edit>
idproject_purpose
The International Maritime Organization have published in 1965 the Convention of Facilitation of International Maritime Traffic (FAL). This convention contains standards and recommended practices on formalities, documentary requirements and procedures which should be applied on arrival, stay and departure of ships and ports. Standard forms were developed for these declarations.

Over time, UN/EDIFACT messages were developed to correspond to each of these forms and integrated into the IMO FAL Compendium. This Compendium has developed the business processes associated with the flow of information relative to these forms. In recent years, IMO has approved a project to update the FAL Compendium and align it with their Single Window project. To this aim, they have developed an independent data model of the requirements from these forms which will be published in the new compendium. IMO has agreed to add annexes within the new Compendium which will provide mappings from this independent model to international standards including the UN Core Component Library, UN/EDIFACT and the UN/CEFACT Multi-Modal Transport Reference Data Model (MMT-RDM).

The current project aims to create the mappings and updated guides to satisfy the request to complete these annexes to the IMO FAL Compendium.

Project Scope

idproject_scope
The project shall update the UN/EDIFACT guides to correspond to the most recent IMO FAL Compendium and their independent data model. The project will also develop equivalent CCBDA message structures derived from the MMT-RDM plus the relevant XML schemas. 

No BRS will be developed as this is covered within the IMO FAL Compendium update project. Core Components and other artefacts may be requested as a submission to satisfy the requirements of the IMO FAL Compendium and in line with the UN/CEFACT principle of ‘semantic hub.’
