<span style="color:rgb(237,125,49)">The Re3gistry software is a reusable open-source solution for managing and sharing ‘reference codes’ through the use of persistent URIs, ensuring concepts are correctly referenced in any domain. Reference
codes can be used in data exchange between applications to uniquely reference some ‘thing’. They can be used to define sets of permissible values for a data field or to provide a reference or context for the data being exchanged. Examples are enumerations,
controlled vocabularies, taxonomies, thesauri or, simply, ‘lists of things’. The Re3gistry can provide a central access point that allows labels and descriptions for reference codes to be easily looked-up by humans or retrieved by machines. Furthermore, it
supports organisations in managing and updating reference codes in a consistent way, so that reference codes do not change or simply disappear over time, but all versions of the codes remain traceable and properly documented. The Re3gistry has been mainly
used in the context of the INSPIRE directive, but can be used in other fields.</span></p>
