Person

Findings

Catalogue-native findings must describe the information grouped by each layer. This legacy version does not declare them separately.

Questions & artifacts

Questions, artifact requirements and serial naming rules are required by Vercy vNext; they remain unassigned in this reference version.

Dimension & namespace

• REFERENCE `world.household` (H2): household and family membership lives in the household model and points here
• REFERENCE `world.populationGroup` (H3): group and community membership resolves against the person identifier
• REFERENCE `world.educationQualification` (H4): earned credentials anchor to the person as holder
• REFERENCE `world.organization` (O1): issuing authorities, employers and guardians-as-organizations are organizations
• imports: schema.org Person (ALIGN): public projection typing for person data
• imports: ISO/IEC 24760 (ALIGN): identity, identifier and identity-assurance vocabulary
• imports: OASIS CIQ (EMBED): structured name and address value shapes reused rather than re-invented

Artifact formats & serial data

Format-independent core. Concrete artifact formats and naming prefixes are not declared in this legacy version.

Policies & accepted processes

• `identityVerificationContract`: attribute verification answered as confirmation only, without disclosing underlying data
• `personalDataConsent`: the person's standing grants over personal-sphere and identity attributes, grounded in S1
• `vitalStatisticsExtract`: anonymized aggregates of registrations released to the statistics office

Read / add / edit / delete

CRUD procedures and interface bindings are not declared in this legacy version.

Ownership, roles & access

The civil registrar owns the registered identity record (identity core, documents, civil status); the person owns all personal-sphere data and every consent over it via S1. Any access to person data is granted by the respective owner through S1/S2 and leaves an audit trail via S4.

Objects

• `person`: the natural person as a stable identity; key attributes: canonical identifier, status (living, deceased), registration authority reference
• `personName`: a structured name with validity period; key attributes: given, family, ordering convention, script, validity
• `identityDocument`: an issued document evidencing identity; key attributes: type, number reference, issuer reference, validity, revocation state
• `identifierAssignment`: an identifier under a named scheme; key attributes: scheme, value pointer, assigning authority, validity
• `civilStatus`: the registered civil state; key attributes: status value, effective date, registering authority
• `capacityState`: legal capacity at a point in time; key attributes: capacity class, basis, effective period
• `guardianshipTie`: a guardianship or representation arrangement; key attributes: guardian reference, scope, basis, period
• `contactPoint`: a person-controlled contact channel; key attributes: channel type, value pointer, visibility setting
• `lifeEventRef`: an anchor to a life event recorded in another model; key attributes: event type, source model, event identifier, date

Relationships

• `person` -> namedBy -> `personName` (1..n): names are versioned facts, not fixed attributes
• `person` -> evidencedBy -> `identityDocument` (1..n): documents evidence but never constitute the identity
• `person` -> holds -> `identifierAssignment` (1..n): scheme-qualified identifiers attach to the person without becoming the person
• `person` -> hasStatus -> `civilStatus` (1..1): one current status, with history carried by events
• `guardianshipTie` -> places -> `person` (n..1): a person may be under guardianship; the guardian is another person or organization
• `person` -> memberOf -> `household` (n..m): household membership resolves in H2
• `lifeEventRef` -> anchors -> `person` (n..1): life events recorded across the catalogue anchor back to the person

Events

• `birthRegistered`: a person's identity was created by civil registration
• `nameChanged`: a new legal name took effect
• `documentIssued`: an identity document was issued
• `documentRevoked`: an identity document was invalidated before expiry
• `civilStatusChanged`: the registered civil status changed
• `capacityChanged`: legal capacity was established, restricted or restored
• `guardianshipEstablished`: a guardianship arrangement took effect
• `deathRegistered`: the identity was closed by death registration

Projections

• `verifiedIdentityView`: the minimal attribute set needed for a given verification; omits everything not asked
• `publicRecordExtract`: only what registration law makes public; omits the entire personal sphere
• `selfView`: the person's own complete view of every record and grant concerning them
