This document concerns the specification of technical exchange formats in extensible markup language (XML), JavaScript object notation (JSON) and comma-separated values (CSV) as output file formats for the functional content defined in ISO 21378.

This document also contains the following schemas and sample files for tables in ISO 21378.
