What is Re3gistry software?

Re3gistry new

The Re3gistry software is a reusable open-source solution for managing and sharing ‘reference codes’ through persistent URIs, ensuring that concepts are unambiguously referenced in any domain.

Reference codes can be sets of permissible values for a data field or to provide a reference or context for the data being exchanged between applications. Reference codes include enumerations, controlled vocabularies, taxonomies, thesauri or, simply, ‘lists of things’.

Licensed under the EUPL, Re3gistry is an open-source project to be deployed and further developed by contributors from any sector.

The development of the Re3gistry began in 2013 under the Are3na action (ISA Programme), continuing since 2016 under the ELISE action of the ISA2 Programme. Starting 2022, the Digital Europe Programme is funding its development.

What Re3gistry offers you?

The Re3gistry provides a central access point where labels and descriptions for reference codes are easily accessible by both humans and machines while fostering semantic interoperability across organisations.

Managing reference codes and setting up registries (systems of registers) helps:

  • Avoiding common mistakes such as misspellings, entering synonyms, or filling out online forms.
  • Facilitating the internationalisation of user interfaces by providing multilingual labels.
  • Ensuring semantic interoperability when exchanging data between systems and applications.
  • Tracing changes over time with a well-documented versioning system.
  • Increasing the value of the reference codes, if widely reused and referenced
