Definition: Data Format ABB is a Data Object that enables the methods and structures in which data is organized and structured within a file or dataset Source: Inspired in Common European Research Forma Source reference: https://joinup.ec.europa.eu/collection/eu-semantic-interoperability-catalogue/solution/common-european-research-information-format/about Last modification: 2024-01-28 Identifier: http://data.europa.eu/dr8/DataFormatDataObject LOST view: Semantic view EIRA concept: eira:ArchitectureBuildingBlock ABB name: eira:DataFormatDataObject Example: The following implementation is an example of how this specific Architecture Building Block (ABB) can be instantiated as a Solution Building Block (SBB): European Data Format, a simple and flexible format for the exchange and storage of multichannel biological and physical signals. It was developed by a few European 'medical' engineers who first met at the 1987 international Sleep Congress in Copenhagen. https://www.edfplus.info/). CSV is also a data format https://www.loc.gov/preservation/digital/formats/fdd/fdd000323.shtml Interoperability Saliency: The Data Format Data Object ABB is a key interoperability enabler and salient for semantic interoperability because it provides a common and structured method to organise data, ensuring data quality and successful data exchanges between public administrations and digital public services Interoperability Dimension: Structural IoP Additional identifier: http://data.europa.eu/dr8/DataFormatDataObject EIF Layer: Semantic
