The European Health Data Space (EHDS) regulation [EUR-Lex - 52022PC0197] is designed to address the significant fragmentation in accessing electronic health data across EU Member States. This fragmentation has hindered researchers, innovators, policymakers, and regulators from fully utilizing data to advance their objectives. The EHDS regulation seeks to eliminate these barriers, setting a framework to minimize legal uncertainties and ease the access and use of health data. By promoting a cohesive approach, the regulation aims to unlock the intrinsic value of electronic health data for secondary purposes such as research and innovation.
To facilitate the implementation of the EHDS regulation, the EHDS2 pilot project [EHDS2] has been launched. This project is pivotal in constructing a prototype of the "HealthData@EU" infrastructure, which is intended for the secondary use of health data. This infrastructure will connect various national data platforms into a unified network, enhancing the ease of conducting cross-border health research and innovation. The project not only aims to streamline the user journey for accessing and utilizing health data but also to establish robust guidelines concerning data standards, security, and transfer protocols. Such guidelines are crucial for maintaining the integrity and security of data within this cross-border framework.
In alignment with the European Commission's broader data strategy, which includes horizontal frameworks like the Data Governance Act [EUR-Lex - 32022R0868] and the Data Act [EUR-Lex - 32023R2854], the EHDS is part of a wider initiative to create sector-specific European data spaces, such as those for space, finance, energy, and health. A critical aspect of the EHDS project involves the development of national and EU dataset catalogues, providing a standardized language tailored to the specifics of electronic health data and user needs. This standardisation will be achieved through the creation of a dedicated healthDCAT application profile, an extension of the DCAT used widely across open data portals in Europe. This profile will ensure that data cataloguing and metadata practices are harmonized, enhancing interoperability and accessibility across the EU.
The use of DCAT Application Profile for data portals in Europe (DCAT-AP) as baseline specification for metadata records is explored as cornerstone for semantic interoperability in the EHDS and with other European data spaces. This document details the specifications for the HealthDCAT-AP extension, a specialised adaptation of the EU DCAT Application Profile. This extension refines the DCAT data model to better support the discovery of health data, thus improving the accessibility and understanding of electronic health records. It places a strong emphasis on privacy and security, ensuring that sensitive information is discoverable and shared in a responsible and efficient manner.
This initiative is part of the broader European Health Data Space (EHDS) and aligns with the goals of the EU4Health Programme to strengthen health systems. By fulfilling the specific objectives set forth in Regulation (EU) 2021/522 [EUR-Lex - 32021R0522], this project plays a critical role in developing a robust, accessible, and effective health data infrastructure across Europe. The enhanced infrastructure is expected to drive the digital transformation of healthcare within the EU, fostering a more data-driven, efficient, and patient-centered approach. Ultimately, this will significantly improve public health outcomes and healthcare delivery across member states.
This document is a deliverable of the Work Package 6 of the EHDS2 pilot project [EHDS2] consortium.
The development of the HealthDCAT extension is an ongoing iterative process that will extend beyond the pilot project, incorporating continuous feedback and contributions from the stakeholder community. This document specifies a first iteration of the HealthDCAT-AP extension, a customised adaptation of the EU DCAT Application Profile. It adapts the DCAT data model specifically for health-related catalogued resources, in alignment with the Regulation proposal on the European Health Data Space [EUR-Lex - 52022PC0197]. This customisation facilitates the management and dissemination of health data within the regulatory framework, enhancing its accessibility and utility for health data users.
Comments and queries should be sent via the issue tracker of the dedicated GitHub repository.
The HealthDCAT-AP designed as an extension of the DCAT-AP incorporates its principal classes such as dcat:Catalog, dcat:CatalogRecord, dcat:Dataset, dcat:Distribution, and dcat:DataService. This extension leverages RDF's flexible architecture to enhance metadata capabilities without compromising the stability of existing or under-development catalog systems. By integrating new metadata elements as triples, the extension enriches the metadata model without altering established structures. To ensure interoperability, the extension adheres to several principles:
This application profile was published by the Work Package 6 of the EHDS2 pilot project as a Recommendation on December 22th, 2023. It has no official standing of any kind and does not represent the support or consensus of any standards organisation.
The structure and content of this document are partially derived from the [DCAT-AP-v3.0] and [DCAT-AP High Value Dataset] specifications. This approach ensures a consistent document format across all DCAT-AP specifications.Information about the process and the decisions involved in the creation of this specification are consultable at the Changelog.

An Application Profile is a specification that reuses terms from one or more base standards, and adds more specificity by identifying mandatory, recommended and optional elements for a particular application, as well as advising on the use of controlled vocabularies.
A Dataset is a collection of data featuring a data catalogue that describes datasets and offers services to facilitate their discovery and reuse.
In the context of the EHDS Regulation proposal [EUR-Lex - 52022PC0197 (Art.44)], accessing these datasets must comply with the principles of data minimization and purpose limitation. This ensures that only data relevant and necessary for the intended processing purpose are provided, in either anonymised or pseudonymised form, depending on what is feasible for meeting the processing objectives.
A Data holder means, in the context of the EHDS Regulation proposal [EUR-Lex - 52022PC0197 (Art.2 (y))], any natural or legal person, which is an entity or a body in the health or care sector, or performing research in relation to these sectors, as well as Union institutions, bodies, offices and agencies who has the right or obligation, in accordance with this Regulation, applicable Union law or national legislation implementing Union law, or in the case of non-personal data, through control of the technical design of a product and related services, the ability to make available, including to register, provide, restrict access or exchange certain data.
Article 32a: Applicability to health data holders
1. The following categories of health data holders shall be exempted from the obligations incumbent on health data holders laid down in this Chapter:
(a) individual researchers and natural persons;
(b) legal persons that qualify as micro-enterprises as defined in Article 2 of the Annex to Commission Recommendation 2003/361/EC.
Member States may, by virtue of national legislation, provide that the obligations of health data holders laid down in this Chapter shall apply to the health data holders referred to in paragraph 1 which fall under their jurisdiction. Member States may, by virtue of national legislation, provide that the duties of certain categories of data holders shall be fulfilled by health data intermediation entities. In that case, the data shall still be considered as being made available from several data holders. National legislation defined under paragraphs 2, 3 and 4 of this Article shall be notified to the Commission by [date of applicability of Chapter IV]. Any subsequent law or amendment affecting them shall be notified to the Commission without delay.
A Data Portal is a Web-based system that contains a data catalogue with descriptions of datasets and provides services enabling discovery and reuse of the datasets.
In the context of the EHDS Regulation proposal [EUR-Lex - 52022PC0197 (Art.57)], Data Portals are managed by the European Commission, Health Data Access Bodies and other authorised participants.
The Common European data spaces [Shaping Europe’s digital future (europa.eu)] are a key component of the European strategy for data. Their aim is to make more data available for access and reuse. This will be done in a trustworthy and secure environment for the benefit of European businesses and citizens. DCAT-AP supports the implementation of the 14 sector data spaces by providing a standardised framework for cataloging datasets, thereby enhancing data interoperability and accessibility across different data spaces in Europe.
A Catalogue is a curated collection of metadata about datasets.
A Catalogue Record is a set of statements about the description of a dataset in the catalogue, e.g. providing information about when a dataset was entered in the catalogue or when its description was modified.
A Distribution is a specific available form of a dataset. If a dataset is published in multiple formats (e.g. Excel, CSV, Data Cube) these are described as separate distributions.
In the context of the EHDS Regulation proposal [EUR-Lex - 52022PC0197 (Art.54)], all secondary use access to requested electronic
health data SHOULD be done through a secure processing environment.
Health Data Access Body: According to the EHDS Regulation proposal [EUR-Lex - 52022PC0197], a Health Data Access Body for secondary use of electronic health data is an organisation designated by EU Member States that ensures that electronic health data are made available by data holders for data users.
A Uniform Resource Identifier - URI is an Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) Request for Comments (RFC)21 specifying a compact sequence of characters that identifies an abstract or physical resource. URLs on the Web are a subset of URIs and are often called HTTP URIs.
Personal electronic health data means data concerning health and genetic data as defined in Article 4, points (13) and (15), of Regulation (EU) 2016/679, processed in an electronic form. [EUR-Lex - 32016R0679 (Art.4(13)(15))]
Non-personal electronic health data means electronic health data other than personal electronic health data, encompassing both data that has been anonymised so that it no longer relates to an identified or identifiable natural person and data that has never related to a data subject.

In addition, HealthDCAT introduces new controlled vocabularies that MUST be used for the following listed properties:
Property URI | Used for Class | Vocabulary name | Usage note | |
---|---|---|---|---|
dct:type | Dataset | Dataset-type authority table | This list of terms provide types of datasets. Its main scope is to support dataset categorisation of the EU Open Data Portal. (To create a new entry for PERSONAL_DATA) | |
healthdcatap:healthCategory | Dataset | EHDS Health Categories (Art.33) | (to create) | |
healthdcatap:publishertype | Dataset | EHDS Publisher type | (to create) |
The EHDS Regulation proposal defines the minimum categories of electronic data for secondary use. A Dataset is in scope of the EHDS Regulation proposal if and only if it is included in the categories listed under Article 33:
Minimum categories of electronic data for secondary use
1. Data holders shall make the following categories of electronic data available for secondary use in accordance with the provisions of this Chapter:
http://publications.europa.eu/resource/authority/data-theme/HEAL
of the Dataset Theme Vocabulary of the Publications Office.
http://publications.europa.eu/resource/authority/access-right/PUBLIC
of the Access Rights Named Authority List provided by the Publications Office.
http://publications.europa.eu/resource/authority/access-right/NON_PUBLIC
of the Access Rights Named Authority List.
Data holders are further obliged to declare that the dataset contains personal data:
Data holders are also further encouraged to detail the sensitive nature of the dataset:
When a health Dataset is categorised as personal electronic health data, HealthDCAT-AP, in accordance with the National Single Information Points [NSIP] requirements, mandates that applications MUST include at least one distribution with the following essential properties: access URL , byte size , format , rights . Moreover Access URL MUST be the landing page of the Health Data Access Body presenting the dataset. And the applicable legislation MUST be the ELI URI of the EHDS Regulation proposal.
Property | Range | Card | Definition | Usage | DCAT | Reuse |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
access URL | Resource | 1..* | A URL that provides the access procedure to a Distribution of the Dataset. | A URL of a Website that contains information on how to request the data. | Link | E |
byte size | xsd:nonNegativeInteger | 1..1 | The size of a Distribution in bytes. | The size in bytes can be approximated | Link | E |
format | Media Type or Extent | 1..1 | The file format of the Distribution. | Only one specific format per Distribution. | Link | E |
applicable legislation | Legal Resource | 1..1 | The ELI URI (to create) of the EHDS Regulation proposal that mandates the creation of the Health Data Access Body. | E | ||
rights | Rights statement | 1..1 | A statement that specifies rights associated with the Distribution. | Link | E |
When a health Dataset is categorised as non-personal electronic health data, implementers MUST provide descriptions for, at least, one distribution of the dataset according to Article 41 of the EHDS Regulation.
As DCAT-AP is a Semantic Web data specification, persistence is associated with the use of persistent URIs (PURIs) for the metadata descriptions. A general advice for DCAT-AP implementers is to use PURIs for all entities, but mostly for Datasets and Data Services.
In the context of healthDCAT-AP, the practice of employing Persistent Uniform Resource Identifiers (PURIs) is mandatory endorsed for the primary identifier property identifier (see example: dct:identifier), as well as for all properties within DCAT that are of range the classes Dataset and Resource (has version, source, is referenced by, related resource, related resource). This approach aligns with best practices of DCAT-AP on identifiers, ensuring that DCAT metadata records and metadata descriptions are not only uniquely identifiable but also consistently and reliably accessible over time. By adhering to this standard, healthDCAT-AP facilitates the precise linking and retrieval of datasets and resources, enhancing interoperability and the utility of health data within the healthdata@EU infrastructure and beyond.
