The GDST Standard defines what data must be collected (KDEs – Key Data Elements) and when that data must be collected (CTEs – Critical Tracking Events) as products move through seafood supply chains. It also defines how that traceability data must be formatted and communicated digitally.
- The CTE/KDE matrix can be found in the Core Normative Standards and the Basic Universal List of KDEs (BUL).
- The protocols for data formatting and communication can be found in Technical Implementation Guidance.
