Foreword

Safeguarding animal health in the United States is achieved through State, Federal, and industry 

collaboration. As part of its role in this collaboration, the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Animal and 

Plant Health Inspection Service (APHIS), Veterinary Services (VS) institutes regulations governing animal 

disease traceability and health certifications of various classes of animals moving interstate. It is the 

purpose of this document to define the data concepts that are associated with electronically generated 

Interstate Certificates of Veterinary Inspection (ICVI).

Several States and private entities have developed or are developing electronic versions of ICVIs for use 

by State animal health officials and accredited veterinarians. In order to be better prepared for any animal 

health event, systems that use a set of common data elements and that have clearly documented 

methods for effective data exchange will greatly shorten the response time associated with the traceability 

of animals moved through interstate commerce. 

A common set of data elements is necessary for any entity; Federal, State, or private, to effectively share 

information for the purposes of animal disease traceability and as an overall part of an integrated national 

surveillance strategy. Additionally, standards are required that allow for effective, error-free data 

exchange. To ensure congruency and to facilitate discussion and implementation of data-sharing 

requirements among States, Tribes, eCVI vendors, and industry stakeholders, VS, in collaboration with 

the National Assembly of State Animal Health Officials, is publishing this set of standards for all systems 

choosing to generate ICVI data.

These standards were derived from the standard set of data fields identified by the National Assembly of 

Chief Livestock Health Officials as necessary to comprise an official ICVI. Additionally, data tables were 

selected based on the established data tables in the Surveillance Collaborative Services (SCS) system. 

This harmonization between SCS and standard ICVI data was done in order for data to be readily 

extracted from an ICVI system and compared to data in the standardized SCS system, being deployed as 

a cooperative State/Federal surveillance system.

Certificate data residing within an approved ICVI system should meet the established requirements for 

the interstate movement of livestock. The approval process within any system that generates an ICVI 

should comply with any approved approval procecess and requirement for the movement of livestock 

between two States. However, the data within an ICVI system does not constitute an approved 

movement unless that data was associated with an officially approved certificate.
ICVI Data Concepts Page 4

Introduction to Data Standards for ICVIs

This document provides standards and guidelines for the construction and operation of an ICVI with 

essential data fields, as approved by the National Assembly of State Animal Health Officials. The 

standards ensure that the data used to generate the ICVI is predefined; that the collection, organization, 

and analysis of appropriate data are uniform; and that data can be shared among Federal, State, and 

third-party systems. Further, these standards allow for review and evaluation to ensure that the standards 

are providing the appropriate type and quality of information. This uniformity will promote consistent 

meaning of essential data when CVIs are shared among stakeholders.

A data standard is a conglomeration of many entities, all working together to provide a reliable data set 

that can be shared between systems. Data standards contain:

 Data Concepts – These are the basic building blocks of a data table; data field names, field 

lengths, characters types, and if the field is required or not.

 Standard Lists – Some data fields depend on a standardized list of elements that are required to 

populate that field. Therefore, every time that particular field is populated with data, the choice 

can only be from the predefined list.

 Standard Data Storage Practices – Systems that exchange data with government systems must 

operate within some basic and standard pre-defined parameters and conform to some basic IT 

governance standards.

 Messaging Standards – This standard defines the style and format of data that is packaged for 

the purposes of transfer to another data system.

These standards offer many benefits to entities wishing to generate ICVI data. The first benefit is the 

convenience of predefined classes that developers can use for variables within a data field. For example, 

a predefined list of breed and species codes may be quickly indexed and include suggestions for 

parameters such as variable lengths, types, and business rules. The next benefit is ease of 

communication between different databases to allow analysis of information from multiple sources. 

Additionally, without a data standard, data of poor quality and consistency may not be reliable; therefore, 

deriving conclusions and analysis from this information would be problematic. Standardization will replace 

these errors with common, consistent business rules and coding. Finally, standards for data storage and 

quality ensure proper data entry and storage, and the proper structuring of data systems so they integrate 

readily with existing and future databases. 

ICVIs serve several important functions in our efforts to protect animal health. Primarily, they document 

the health status of animals moving interstate. They also enhance traceability of livestock by recording 

the magnitude and spatial characteristics of livestock movements. ICVIs contain information on 

observational surveillance for physical evidence of freedom from syndromic diseases and laboratory test 

evidence of freedom from specific diseases. Through ICVIs, States monitor animal movements into and 
ICVI Data Concepts Page 5

out of States and assist with enforcement of regulations, and individual States can use ICVIs to augment 

Federal regulations by addressing specific animal health concerns within each State.

* Additionally, unless the species-specific requirements for ICVIs provide an exception, 

• the ICVI must list the official identification number of each animal, except as provided in paragraph (b) of this definition, or group 

of animals moved that is required to be officially identified, or, if an alternative form of identification has been agreed upon by the 

sending and receiving States, the ICVI must include a record of that identification. 

• If animals moving under a GIN also have individual official identification, only the GIN must be listed on the ICVI. An ICVI may

not be issued for any animal that is not officially identified if official identification is required.

• If the animals are not required by the regulations to be officially identified, the ICVI must state the exemption that applies (e.g., 

the cattle and bison belong to one of the classes of cattle and bison exempted under § 90.4 of this chapter from the official 

identification requirements of 9 CFR part 90 during the initial stage of the phase-in of those requirements). 

• If the animals are required to be officially identified but the identification number does not have to be recorded on the ICVI, the 

ICVI must state that all animals to be moved under the ICVI are officially identified.

Standards for Database Systems

Data Storage, Accessibility, and Transfer 

Standard: Data for ICVIs are stored in an electronic relational database using standardized 

naming and formatting conventions for data fields. The database system allows 

access to different types of authorized users and allows for easy data transfer and 

integration with other systems. 

a. Electronic, relational databases are used to store data and are designed 

using industry standards.

b. To facilitate the flow of information among systems, the database uses the 

standardized data naming and formatting conventions described previously.

c. The data are stored in a manner that facilitates the flow of information 

across systems. 

d. The database should be scalable to allow for appropriate expansion of the 

system and reliable for continuous use. 

e. The data storage system should maintain and make accessible legacy data 

that may not meet the standard set forth in this document.

Supporting Information: 

Relational databases. Electronic, relational databases provide the most accessible, 

reliable, scalable, and secure form for storing surveillance information. Spreadsheets are 

typically not appropriate for long term storage of ICVI data. Relational databases provide 

these advantages:

 Tools for efficient and secure data storage, retrieval, and update

 Descriptions of the stored data items and their formats (i.e., metadata, data 
ICVI Data Concepts Page 17

dictionaries)

 Tools for transaction and concurrency control that allow multiple users to access

and use the database(s) simultaneously

 Tools for data recovery

 Tools for database security, including user authorization and backups

Standardized data formatting. One of the challenges of database design and development 

is deciding what data to include (i.e., what fields or elements), and how to format the data 

so it is compatible with other systems. Use of standardized naming and formatting of data 

fields greatly increases the ability to integrate information from multiple data collection 

systems. The previous section describes the naming and formatting for ICVI data.

Accessibility. Data and information accessibility is critical to a successful surveillance 

program. ICVI data must be accessible, in a timely manner, to a variety of authorized users 

who may need this information for analysis, reporting, and decision-making, particularly in 

emergencies. Tools should be available that allow access to data by authorized users so 

this information can be queried or extracted to other software for analysis (e.g., statistical or 

geospatial analysis).

Exchange of Data Among Systems. More information can be obtained from the same 

amount of data if the data are stored in a manner that facilitates the transfer of data to other 

systems or integration of data with other systems. Extensible Markup Language (XML) is 

commonly used for this purpose; XML facilitates information exchange among systems by 

encoding data with meaningful structure and semantics that computers and humans can 

understand (see <www.orafaq.com/glossary>). Other technologies or industry practices 

may also facilitate data flow among systems. ICVI data must be provided to cooperating 

partners, using the data standards mentioned in the previous section and in the format 

described below, under the topic; ‘Data Format/Data Exchange’.

Scalable. The database technology and architecture should allow appropriate levels of 

expansion of the system without compromising system efficiency. 

Reliability. Reliability refers to the user’s ability to consistently and efficiently use the 

database system for data entry or retrieval. Systems that store ICVI data must be able to 

consistently provide many users with simultaneous access to high quality data. 
ICVI Data Concepts Page 18

Legacy data (or historical data). Older data from some applications may have been 

collected and stored using outdated computer technologies. These data are often still a 

vital source of national animal health surveillance information and should be maintained for 

use by analysts and decision-makers. Legacy data should be accessible, and clear 

documentation should be available to describe these data to ensure usability in the future. 
ICVI Data Concepts Page 19

Data Security and Backup

Standard: Data stored in systems that generate ICVIs should be accessible to authorized 

users and be secure, recoverable, and reliable. The database is backed up to 

minimize intentional or accidental loss of information. 

Supporting Information: 

Security. The database should be strictly controlled and managed to prevent intentional or 

accidental loss of information. Security measures should include, but not be limited to, 

authorization and authentication of users, limiting privileges of users based on roles, 

encryption, data backups, and data storage in multiple locations. Security measures should 

address loss of data, loss of confidentiality, loss of privacy, loss of integrity, and loss of 

availability. 

Database backup. Backup is the process of periodically taking a copy of the database and

moving it to an offline storage media. Complete backup protocols and systems for animal 

health surveillance databases should be implemented to prevent loss of data that would 

affect daily operations. The backup system should consider how fast data recovery needs 

to occur, how long data must be available online, and methods for maintaining permanent 

backup media. 
ICVI Data Concepts Page 20

Security Certification and Accreditation (C&A)

Standard: All federal IT systems must be officially authorized, from a security standpoint, to 

operate. 

Systems that hold ICVI data that will be dynamically linked to federal IT systems 

must meet security standards set forth in an Information Security Agreement (ISA) 

adopted between VS and the entity wishing to dynamically exchange data. 

Systems that hold ICVI data that is provided to federal IT systems in the form of a 

standardized data file should also have security standards in place to assure the 

integrity of the data.

Supporting Information: 

Numerous directives explicitly state the requirement for Federal agencies to perform a 

security certification and accreditation (C&A) of their IT systems. The C&A process 

involves a comprehensive evaluation of the technical, operational, and management 

controls in place to properly secure both the data and infrastructure of a given application. 

Accreditation is a formal acceptance, by the agency in question, of any residual risks once 

the security measures identified are in place, and is the official authority to operate the 

system as described in the associated documentation.

C&A standards require these steps:

 Establish and document access controls

 Maintain configuration management plan

 Perform a risk assessment

 Assess impact of data to personal privacy

 Ensure existence of a disaster recovery plan

 Create and maintain a system security plan 

Critical components of the C& A process include: 
ICVI Data Concepts Page 21

 The system is certified and accredited every 3 years or following any major change 

to the system

 The security classification of the system is properly assessed 

 Required security documents are in place and updated as related attributes of the 

application evolve

 The C&A process is integrated into the system development life cycle of any new 

system

Information about the C&A process for federal IT systems and specific information about 

what is required for an ISA is available through the Office of the Chief Information Officer for 

VS. Developers unfamiliar with the C&A requirements and process should contact VS 

OCIO.
ICVI Data Concepts Page 22

Data Quality

Standard: The database system is designed, implemented, and maintained to ensure that 

data are of high quality. 

a. Systematic and proactive procedures, used at multiple points in the data 

flow for the generation of a ICVI, are implemented to ensure data quality; 

this includes feedback processes designed to not only inspect data for 

quality but also to address and fix the root causes of data errors. 

b. Those responsible for data quality are identified and have a clear role in the 

data quality feedback process. 

c. Programming tools are used to prevent data entry errors (e.g., code that 

enforces business rules or filters data that is out of range for particular 

fields).

d. Individuals responsible for data entry have training and resources to 

perform their job correctly. 

e. Data are periodically validated and verified to ensure that the information is 

sufficiently accurate and complete to meet the needs of the surveillance 

program, and feedback from this process is used to improve the 

procedures used to ensure data quality. 

Supporting Information: 

Data that are complete and error-free are essential for an ICVI system to provide accurate 

reports and meaningful analyses in a timely manner. Data quality is defined as the ability of 

the data to meet the requirements of all internal and external customers. In particular, it is a 

core requirement that data are accurate, complete, accessible, available, and compatible 

with data from multiple systems. To achieve this, all ICVI data systems must demonstrate 

commitment to data quality. High quality data is not something that “just happens;” it is the 
ICVI Data Concepts Page 23

result of systematic and proactive quality management efforts throughout data system. 

The measurement and improvement of data quality is a broad subject, and there are many 

books and Web sites on this topic. However, these considerations are of particular concern 

to data quality in an ICVI system:

 ICVI data should reflect a commitment to implementing systematic and proactive 

procedures to assure data quality. These procedures should go beyond mere data 

inspection/correction and reflect a system-wide strategy to identify and eliminate 

causes of inadequate data quality. 

 Systems that generate ICVIs should identify teams of individuals who are tasked 

with data quality management; this group should include database managers as 

well as those involved with data entry, analysis, and reporting. 

 Data entry user interfaces should be designed to minimize data entry errors. This 

may be achieved by restricting data entry in particular fields to acceptable values, 

cross-validating information within and between records, minimizing the use of 

free-text fields, using standardized terminology, using standardized lookup tables to 

control data entry, forcing users to double-key critical information, and constraints 

on data entry that assure data integrity.

 Training those responsible for data collection and data entry is recognized as a 

critical component to the data quality management process. Data entry personnel 

should be provided with resources (e.g., documents, protocols, user’s guides, webbased resources, help desk contacts) to facilitate data entry and address questions 

or concerns. Feedback processes should be established to help data collectors 

and data entry staff-identify and correct errors. 

 Data validation and verification processes should be established to periodically 

review the data for accuracy, integrity, and completeness. These processes can 

identify systematic problems with a data system and avert data integrity problems 

that can affect quality reporting and analysis. These processes should not only 

identify and correct errors, but should also identify causes of data quality problems 

and provide solutions. Further, mechanisms should be in place to implement 

solutions to data quality problems when they are identified. 
ICVI Data Concepts Page 24

Data System Documentation 

Standard: Data system documentation must be readily available and clearly describe:

 The system requirements and business rules

 The system users, including their access and roles

 The system components and their relationships (database schemas, 

entity-relationship diagrams, and descriptions of tables, views, and 

stored procedures)

 Data dictionaries that explain what data are stored in the database(s), 

how these are formatted

 Details regarding data backup and recovery procedures

 Changes to the data system over time, including changes to data 

elements that may impact analysis and reporting 

 The activities of the system’s Change Control Board (CCB), if applicable

Supporting Information: 

Comprehensive system documentation provides critical information to IT developers, data 

end users, and other stakeholders about what, where, and how data are stored. System 

documentation should be developed for all systems that are developed to generate ICVIs. 

Documentation of Changes to the Data System. Changes to a data system must be 

carefully considered and fully documented. Changes to any data system can have farreaching ramifications both to developers of the system and stakeholders who use the data 

in the system, especially when data systems are integrated and pull or receive data from 

multiple sources. It is important to have a critical review process of all changes that occur 

to a data system’s architecture and design. This includes, but is not limited to, changes in 

data collection, table design, table relationships, and coding systems used within tables. 

Critical Components:

 A Change Control Board (CCB) should be established that has members 
ICVI Data Concepts Page 25

representing the IT team and officials involved in planning and implementing the 

surveillance system. The CCB approves the original system, the system 

documentation, and system changes. 

 Periodic reviews of the data system should be conducted to evaluate new 

technologies and modernization of the current system.

 The data system should be evaluated periodically by unbiased experts to evaluate 

system efficiency and design.

 Any changes to the data system should be documented completely, including 

updates to the data dictionary, entity relationship diagrams (ERDs), and user 

guides.
ICVI Data Concepts Page 26

Data Confidentiality

Standard: The data system ensures the confidentiality of sensitive or private information.

a. Appropriate authority is obtained to collect and maintain data that may 

be sensitive or confidential.

b. Sensitive or confidential data elements are identified and a protocol is 

developed and implemented to restrict access to these elements; access 

is limited to authorized individuals.

c. Staff are trained on data confidentiality policies and protocols.

d. Information-sharing policies for databases are documented and adhered 

to, ensuring confidentiality. 

e. Federal and State information sharing laws and practices are carefully 

evaluated before linking, transferring, or sharing data with any 

organization.

Supporting Information: 

Data confidentiality and privacy is a top priority for all systems that generate ICVIs. Such 

systems must include approved protocols for collecting, storing, restricting access to, and 

working with confidential information. In addition, confidential information may only be 

shared when the situation complies with Federal and State laws.

First steps for addressing data confidentiality issues include:

o Obtain authority to gather and maintain private information
ICVI Data Concepts Page 27

o Identify data that require restricted access

o Identify groups of users (roles) and the data they can access 

o Restrict user access to data based on group membership (roles)

o Determine if information on individuals or groups of individuals can easily be 

obtained

o Ensure the information stored is used as authorized

For VS data systems, refer questions on data confidentiality and information sharing to 

APHIS Legislative and Public Affairs.
ICVI Data Concepts Page 28

Data Format/Data Exchange

Standard: Data that complies with the standards set forth in this document should be 

formatted and packaged in XML (see Appendix 11)

Supporting Information: 

Data should be transferred between approved systems in a format that allows for a 

standardized method of reliable data sharing. In most cases a simple Extensible Markup 

Language (XML) file will suffice for effective data transfer between systems. XML is a 

markup language that defines a set of rules for encoding documents in a format that is both 

human-readable and machine-readable. A sample XML file is included in Appendix 11, but 

other XML packaging can be used as long as the data standards defined in this document 

are met.

Appendix 7: Identification Standards

Official Identification Numbers - Animals

Official identification numbering systems are fundamental to animal disease programs. Numbers for both 

individual animals and groups of animals are defined to support methods of official identification for the 

various species and for meeting production management practices. Official animal identification devices, 

such as eartags, have an official identification number imprinted on them. Group/lot numbers are 

associated to the animals through records maintained by individuals responsible for the group throughout 

the production chain.

Official identification numbers are nationally unique numbers permanently associated with individual 

animals or groups of animals. Official identification numbers are associated with individual animals or 

groups of animals through official identification devices or methods. Official identification numbers adhere 

to one of the following numbering systems: 

 National Uniform Eartagging System (NUES)

 Animal identification number (AIN)

 Location-based number system 

 Flock-based number system 

 Any other numbering system approved by the APHIS Administrator for the official 

identification of animals

Individual Animal Numbers

Official animal numbering systems provide a way to uniquely identify individual animals. Official 

identification for certain species is based on identification devices (e.g., official eartags) that have an 

official animal number imprinted on them. The following table specifies the format for each official 

numbering system used for individual animals.

Note: AINs beginning with the 840 prefix are recognized for use only on animals born in the United 
ICVI Data Concepts Page 77

States. 

Animal Group Identification Numbers

Group/Lot Identification Numbers (GINs)

The use of GINs provides a way to uniquely identify a unit of animals of the same species that is 

managed as one group throughout the preharvest production chain. The GIN consists of the following:

 One of the location identifiers (premises identification number (PIN) or location identification 

number (LID)) defined in the following pages

 A six-digit representation of the date on which the group or lot of animals was assembled or date 

the group was initiated if more than one day (MM/DD/YY)

 Two additional digits, ranging from 01 to 99, for the numbering of different groups or lots of 

animals assembled on the same premises on the same day. When more than one group of 

animals is assembled, the groups would be designated consecutively as 01, 02, 03, etc. 

Flock Identification Numbers 

The National Scrapie Eradication Program furnishes eartags to sheep and goat producers. The 

numbering system for these tags combines a nationally unique flock identification number (FIN) with the 

producer’s unique livestock production numbering system. This flock-based numbering system represents 

an animal group that is associated with one or more locations. The system serves the sheep and goat 

industries well in their disease control and eradication efforts. 

A State or Federal animal health authority assigns the FIN to a group of animals managed as a unit on 

one or more premises under the same ownership. 

The following table specifies the official GINs.

Location Numbering Systems

States and Tribes may elect to use location identifiers to support their animal disease traceability plan. 

Two processes, explained below, support the administration of location identifiers that adhere to the 

standards defined in Table 3. PINs are available through the PIN allocator, a software application tool that 
ICVI Data Concepts Page 79

APHIS provides to States and Tribes electing to use it. States may also use their own process for 

administering unique State-issued location identifiers. To avoid confusion in presenting these options in 

this document, State-issued location identifiers are referred to as LIDs, and the numbers States and 

Tribes obtain through the allocator are referred to as PINs (or standardized PINs). States and Tribes may

choose to use other terms in their materials. 

States and Tribes are not required to provide PINs or LIDs for the administration of their traceability plans. 

However, if they choose to use location identifiers to administer their traceability activities, following the 

standards below will ensure that their information systems are compatible with other traceability and 

animal health databases. 

Location Identification Numbers 

LIDs are administered through a State’s or Tribe’s internal system. The LID consists of six or eight 

alphanumeric characters. Seven alphanumeric characters may be used only when the last character is a 

check digit based on ISO 7064:1983, a standard published by the International Organization for 

Standardization (ISO). Using the State postal abbreviation as the first two characters ensures LIDs are 

nationally unique. 

Premises Identification Numbers 

States and Tribes may elect to use the PIN in their traceability system. The standardized PIN, obtained 

through the APHIS PIN allocator, consists of seven alphanumeric characters. The last character is a 

check digit based on ISO 7064:1983. States may use the State’s postal abbreviation as the first two of the 

seven characters (for example, OH341T4) unless the State is using a seven-character LID. Tribes may 

also have codes reserved for use with PINs they administer. The codes for Tribes will be assigned upon 

request. States and Tribes obtaining PINs from the PIN allocator may use either the Standardized 

Premises Identification System or a Compliant Premises Identification System. The standardized and 

compliant systems are defined in the Animal Disease Traceability Information Technology technical 

document.

The LID and PIN data standards are defined in the following table.

Table 3. Location Identifiers

Data Element Length Format Example Comments

LID16 Alphanumeric MN4321 First 2 characters are the State 

postal abbreviation. 

8 Alphanumeric CA654321 First 2 characters are the State 

postal abbreviation.

PIN 7 Alphanumeric A123R69 Last character is a check digit.2

1 States and Tribes may issue LIDs in the 7-character format only when the ISO 7064:1983 check digit 

is used as the last character.

2 The check digit calculation algorithm is based on ISO 7064:1983, “Data Processing – Check 

Character Systems.” (See Animal Disease Traceability Technical Standards document.)

Note: To avoid confusion with the numbers 0 and 1, the LID and PIN will not contain the letters O or I 

except when the letters are contained in the State or Tribal code.
