Since 2001, GVL has been providing online applications to enable veterinarians and animal health practitioners, state authorities, diagnostic laboratories and other animal health officials to build, access, and monitor animal movement records with ease and efficiency. The first digital software applications available through GVL were companion and food animal Certificates of Veterinary Inspection (CVIs) — known as health certificates and a secure alternative to USDA APHIS 7001 forms — and Equine Infectious Anemia (EIA) certificates.
