Description of Activities

CEN/TC251 Health Informatics is a standards delivery organisation, meaning that it approves standards in Europe, but the standards do not have to be created in Europe. In fact, many of them come from the global health informatics committee ISO/TC215. For this reason, it is important to monitor and contribute to the standards prepared in ISO/TC215. This is what the purpose of this fellowship was about.
ISO/TC215 has around 10 working groups (WGs) and CEN/TC251 has two. I am the convener of the second one and I try to follow those ISO/TC215 WGs that operate within the scope of my WG in CEN/TC251. This is not always easy because the ISO/TC215 WG meetings take place at the same time. In ISO/TC215 I participate mainly in interoperability, information security, and health software development areas.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is coming to healthcare, too. As I have AI experience through my doctoral studies and projects that followed, it has been natural for me to follow AI standardisation, too. The ISO/TC215 meeting in Toronto in October 2025 made it clear that the number of AI related work items is increasing in ISO/TC215. ISO/TC215 has a joint working group 3 (JWG3) with JTC1/SC42 Artificial Intelligence. The idea is that the ISO/TC215 AI work items are developed in this JWG3. Attendance in JWG3 is important also because I am a member of the CEN Strategic Advisory Group on AI in healthcare.
During the ISO/TC215 Toronto meetings in October 2025, SC42 held its meetings in Sydney, Australia. After the working day was over in Toronto, work began in Sydney in Toronto evening time. I participated in particularly the healthcare AI standards development JWG3 and SC42/WG4 Use Cases meetings virtually in Sydney. Attendance in JWG3 meetings was important to motivate the ISO/TC215 initiated standardisation projects to the SC42 leadership. Through my participation, the other parties became more aware of European values in AI standardisation.

Impact on SMEs (9th Open Call)
Due to my background in the university, I look for opportunities to commercialise the results of our research projects in a start-up company. When I have this approach in my mind, I try to contribute to the standards in such a way that that their implementation does not require a large organisation. For example, this week I commented in a AI Risk Management System standard comment resolution meeting that this form of requirements means that the company has to have at least four people to be able to comply with the standard.
Impact on society (9th Open Call)
Information technology supports the delivery of healthcare, making it safer, more effective and patient-friendly by making the personal health information accessible to the patients themselves. The standardisation work in ISO/TC215 supports these developments.

Description of Activities

Standardisation in the field of Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technologies is imperative to promote interoperability, security, and innovation across European markets. The rapid evolution of these technologies has led to a fragmented landscape of standards globally. This fragmentation presents challenges such as hindered cross-border data flow and increased compliance burdens on European businesses. My activity aims to address these critical gaps by actively participating in the creation of comprehensive, internationally recognized standards.
My engagement in the Joint ISO/TC 307 - ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 27 WG directly supports this action. By actively participating in WG, I am bolstering Europe's representation and influence in shaping global standards in this transformative domain.
From a European perspective, this activity is pivotal. Europe seeks to not only embrace but lead in the adoption and implementation of Blockchain and Distributed Ledger Technologies. By participating in the development of standards, we ensure that Europe's interests, values, and priorities are ingrained in the foundation of these technologies. This is paramount for bolstering Europe's digital sovereignty, fostering innovation, and ensuring that European businesses remain competitive on the global stage.

Description of Activities

This fellowship supports my role as a convener of ISO TCC307 WG3. The priority is to organise the appropriate ballots and meetings to allow the experts to discuss and reach a consensus based on the comments received for the projects in ISO TC 307 WG3. Another priority is to complete the norms with the attendance list and verify that all experts in the meeting were duly registered in the portal and authorised to participate in the meetings.

One of the main challenges of this work has been overcoming the cultural barriers and language differences encountered during this period, particularly through various meetings and ad hoc meetings for the three projects, which are ongoing in preparation for the final stage to publication.

Impact on SMEs (9th Open Call)
Smart contracts are a fundamental enabler for developing with other technologies. In particular, the taxonomy and classification of smart contracts will contribute to understanding the scope within the Data Act and avoid confusion with some smart contracts that are not limited to the scope of the Data Act, thereby making it more comprehensive for the Digital Single Market and future strategy. The context of the EUDIC, EBSI, and other advancements for smart communities will gain a clear perspective with the technical specification TS 18126 (Taxonomy and classification for smart contracts).
In addition, the Sustainable Development Goals, which many projects of SMEs and other European societies are pursuing, will have guidance on how smart contracts are contributing to achieve the SDGs; this will be a Publicly Available Specification (PAS) 24874 (Guidance on the use of smart contracts in contributing to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)).

Impact on SMEs (8th Open Call)
The contribution directly impacts European societies and SMEs by helping develop standards that promote healthier, more sustainable, and inclusive urban environments. These standards support cities in improving well-being, resilience, and equitable access to services—key factors for vibrant communities and local economies. For SMEs, clearer guidelines on sustainability and smart urban solutions create opportunities for innovation, market access, and competitiveness within Europe. By fostering alignment between global best practices and local needs, the work helps European stakeholders adapt to evolving challenges in urban development and public health.
Impact on society (8th Open Call)
By promoting interoperability and scalable health and well-being indicators, this initiative advances inclusive, data-driven solutions for sustainable urban development. I contribute extensively by providing guidance on integrating existing management system elements and concerns with technology—particularly emphasizing digital health and IoT integration—to promote health and well-being effectively within urban management systems.

Geographic information - Schema for moving features

ISO 19141:2008 defines a method to describe the geometry of a feature that moves as a rigid body. Such movement has the following characteristics.(a) The feature moves within any domain composed of spatial objects as specified in ISO 19107.(b) The feature may move along a planned route, but it may deviate from the planned route.(c) Motion may be influenced by physical forces, such as orbital, gravitational, or inertial forces.(d) Motion of a feature may influence or be influenced by other features, for example:- The moving feature might follow a predefined route (e.g. road), perhaps part of a network, and might change routes at known points (e.g. bus stops, waypoints).- Two or more moving features may be pulled together or pushed apart (e.g. an airplane will be refuelled during flight, a predator detects and tracks a prey, refugee groups join forces).- Two or more moving features may be constrained to maintain a given spatial relationship for some period (e.g. tractor and trailer, convoy).ISO 19141:2008 does not address other types of change to the feature. Examples of changes that are not addressed include the following:(a) The deformation of features.(b) The succession of either features or their associations.(c) The change of non-spatial attributes of features.The feature's geometric representation cannot be embedded in a geometric complex that contains the geometric representations of other features, since this would require the other features' representations to be updated as the feature moves. Because ISO 19141:2008 is concerned with the geometric description of feature movement, it does not specify a mechanism for describing feature motion in terms of geographic identifiers. This is done, in part, in ISO 19133.

Geographic information - XML schema implementation - Part 1: Encoding rules

This document is the first of a family of standards. This document defines XML based encoding rules for conceptual schemas specifying types that describe geographic resources. The encoding rules support the UML profile as used in the UML models commonly used in the standards developed by ISO/TC 211. The encoding rules use XML schema for the output data structure schema. The encoding rules described in this document are not applicable for encoding UML application schema for geographic features (see ISO 19136 for those rules).

ISO/TS 19139-1:2019

Geographic information - Core profile of the spatial schema

ISO 19137:2007 defines a core profile of the spatial schema specified in ISO 19107 that specifies, in accordance with ISO 19106, a minimal set of geometric elements necessary for the efficient creation of application schemata. It supports many of the spatial data formats and description languages already developed and in broad use within several nations or liaison organizations.

Geographic information - Geography Markup Language (GML) - Part 1: Fundamentals

This document is the first of a family of standards. The Geography Markup Language (GML) is an XML encoding in accordance with ISO 19118 for the transport and storage of geographic information modelled in accordance with the conceptual modelling framework used in the ISO 19100 series of International Standards and including both the spatial and non-spatial properties of geographic features. This document defines the XML Schema syntax, mechanisms and conventions that:(1) provide an open, vendor-neutral framework for the description of geospatial application schemas for the transport and storage of geographic information in XML;(2) allow profiles that support proper subsets of GML framework descriptive capabilities;(3) support the description of geospatial application schemas for specialized domains and information communities;(4) enable the creation and maintenance of linked geographic application schemas and datasets;(5) support the storage and transport of application schemas and datasets; and(6) increase the ability of organizations to share geographic application schemas and the information they describe.Implementers can decide to store geographic application schemas and information in GML, or they can decide to convert from some other storage format on demand and use GML only for schema and data transport.NOTE: If an ISO 19109 conformant application schema described in UML is used as the basis for the storage and transportation of geographic information, this document provides normative rules for the mapping of such an application schema to a GML application schema in XML Schema and, as such, to an XML encoding for data with a logical structure in accordance with the ISO 19109 conformant application schema.

Geographic information - Procedures for item registration - Part 1: Fundamentals, with amendment

This document is the first of a family of standards. ISO 19135-1:2015 specifies procedures to be followed in establishing, maintaining, and publishing registers of unique, unambiguous, and permanent identifiers and meanings that are assigned to items of geographic information. In order to accomplish this purpose, ISO 19135-1:2015 specifies elements that are necessary to manage the registration of these items.

Geographic information - Location-based services - Multimodal routing and navigation

ISO 19134:2006 specifies the data types and their associated operations for the implementation of multimodal location-based services for routing and navigation. It is designed to specify web services that may be made available to wireless devices through web-resident proxy applications, but is not limited to that environment.
