Project Scope &
Purpose
Project 1622 (P-1622) is the Standard for
Voting Equipment Electronic Data Interchange development effort. The project sponsor, Stephen Berger, submitted the Project
Authorization Request (PAR) for this effort on July 30, 2002.
P-1622 is submitted under Standards
Coordinating Committee SCC38.
Scope The scope of P-1622 is defined in its
PAR as follows:
This project will develop electronic data
interchange formats to be used by components of the voting system
for exchange of electronic data.
Data interchange specifications for voting
systems may include information used to define and create ballots,
as well as reporting of voting activity and results.
Jurisdictional and geo-political information is included in
that information, as are contest definitions, voter registration,
and voting area (a.k.a., precinct) information.
All such data is included in the scope of this project.
The project scope does not include
implementation/vendor specific information.
Purpose The
"Voting System" is composed of a number of components, the
voter registration system, the candidate filing process, the
petition system, ballot definition, voting, tabulation, and
reporting systems. This
standard will develop standard data interchange formats to allow the
exchange and interoperability of these various systems.
The
purpose of P-1622 is to reach, as nearly as possible, the ideal
state, wherein there exists a common definition of the data utilized
within election systems and the election industry.
This standard would promote interoperability among functional
components, reduce complexity, spur innovation, and provide greater
assurance within election systems.
