GoSAFE - Moving safely everywhere
A “data interoperability standard” to enable citizen mobility across Europe in the COVID-19 era.
Where: international
Where: international
Challenge
Free movement of people in the COVID-19 era was a potential risk but if there were efficient contact tracing procedures in place, people could go back to normality (e.g. travelling, participating in events) and operators (e.g. carriers, hotels) would be able to get back into business.
Approach
GoSAFE develops a secure, interoperable and privacy preserving solution, which simplifies contact tracing operation thanks to a digital Personal Locator Form (PLF) based on interoperable data model interpreted uniquely in all European Countries.
GoSAFE allows operators to create their own digital forms for collecting personal locator data. If a COVID-19 case occurs, operators and public authorities can retrieve the PLF data and act with precision and in a timely manner.
The solution includes:
- #GoSAFE data model (NGSI v.2): interoperable data model for the description of PLF
- #GoSAFE SDK and open API: to easily embed the PLF fill-in procedure in the already existing applications of travel operators
- #GoSAFE backend: to easily store the PLF collected in compliance to GDPR (end2end encryption of data is used by default)
- #GoSAFE mobile APP: a digital wallet allowing travellers to easily manage their PLF on the fly.
The project has received co-funding by EIT Digital in the Digital Wellbeing - Action Line for 2020, specifically under the EIT’s Crisis Response Initiative.
