| KDE | Description | Example Value |
|---|---|---|
| eventID | A URN formatted universally unique ID (UUID) | urn:uuid:xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx |
| action | The action says how an event relates to the lifecycle of the entity being described. ADD means the entity in question has been created or added to. OBSERVE means the entity in question has not been changed. DELETE means the entity in question has been removed from or destroyed altogether |

| eventTime | A string value formatted as an ISO datetime | 2026-01-01T00:00:00.000Z |
| eventTimeZoneOffset | The time zone offset in effect at the time and place the event occurred, expressed as an offset from UTC. The purpose of eventTimeZoneOffset is to provide additional business context about the event, namely to identify what time zone offset was in effect at the time and place the event was captured. | "+00:00" |
| bizLocation | A URN formatted GLN or GDST location identifier validated as a GLN with related master data | urn:epc:id:gln:1234567890123, urn:gdst:example.org:location:loc:examplePrefix.0 |
| informationProvider | A URN formatted PGLN or GDST party identifier | urn:epc:sgln:08600031303.0.0, urn:gdst:example.org:party:example_prefix.0 |
| readPoint | A readPoint object with an id property equal to a geo formatted coordinate pair |
geo:37.860236,-123.144697 |
Source List Requirements
Both owning_party and location must be set on the source list. The source list is an array property of objects that have a type and source property. Entries in sourceList tie the shipment to originating locations and product owners.
| KDE | Description | Example Value |
|---|---|---|
| type | Indicates what is identified by the value, typically the owning party or location | urn:epcglobal:cbv:sdt:owning_party, urn:epcglobal:cbv:sdt:location |
| source | Either a PGLN or GDST party identifier to indicate the owning party or a GLN or GDST location identifier to indicate the location. | urn:epc:id:sgln:08600031303.0.0, urn:gdst:example.org:party:example_prefix.0, urn:gdst:example.org:location:loc:example_prefix.0 |
Example
[
{
"type": "urn:epcglobal:cbv:sdt:owning_party",
"source": "urn:gdst:traceability-solution.com:party:0048000.vessel_owner"
},
{
"type": "urn:epcglobal:cbv:sdt:location",
"source": "urn:gdst:traceability-solution.com:location:loc:0048000.fishing_vessel"

]Destination List Requirements
Both the owning_party and location must be set on the destination list. The destination list is an array property of objects that have a type and source property. Entries in destinationList tie the shipment to destination locations and product owners.
| KDE | Description | Example Value |
|---|---|---|
| type | Indicates what is identified by the value, typically the owning party or location | urn:epcglobal:cbv:sdt:owning_party, urn:epcglobal:cbv:sdt:location |
| destination | Either a PGLN or GDST party identifier to indicate the owning party or a GLN or GDST location identifier to indicate the location. | urn:epc:id:sgln:08600031303.0.0, urn:gdst:example.org:party:example_prefix.0, urn:gdst:example.org:location:loc:example_prefix.0 |
