Data Formats
The OMG standard seeks to collaboratively define an open data standard to make it easier to allow governments to share their data.
- XOMGL – The main technical standard that shows how data should be organized, and what is required and optional.
- JSON – XOMGL can also be output as JSON for other applications.
- CSV – A stripped down CSV version of the standard is also possible, allowing smaller datafile sizes and easy reading by regular citizens.

Famous quotes containing the word data:
“This city is neither a jungle nor the moon.... In long shot: a cosmic smudge, a conglomerate of bleeding energies. Close up, it is a fairly legible printed circuit, a transistorized labyrinth of beastly tracks, a data bank for asthmatic voice-prints.”
—Susan Sontag (b. 1933)
