CoSSI - PXML
The CoSSI compatible PXML-format - Version 1.0
The CoSSI defines the structures of statistical data (matrices and tables), metadata (document and statistical metadata, and quality declarations), and publications. XML DTDs have been selected as the technical means for implementing these structures. The CoSSI model is comprised of several DTDs that can be modularly combined for different types of documents. The basic document types are a statistical table (CALS), a statistical matrix (XDF) and a publication. These documents are XML documents that are compatible with the CoSSI model and also contain the metadata and the language versions necessary for describing a set of statistics.
PC-Axis is also using CoSSI model as the XML format for the data and metadata. This is called PXML.
