| VOTable&lt;br /&gt;
|}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== General description ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
VOTable is an XML-based table format used for interchange within the International Virtual Observatory Alliance ([http://www.ivoa.net IVOA]) suite of standards.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The current version (as of late 2012) is VOTable 1.2, standardised in an IVOA Recommendation&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Francois Ochsenbein and Roy Williams, ''VOTable Format Definition, Version 1.2''.  Online: http://www.ivoa.net/Documents/VOTable/&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Other information ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Virtual_Observatory_Alliance IVOA] acts as a standardisation body for [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_observatory Virtual Observatory] projects.  In a process modelled on the W3C's, it provides a forum for standards documents to be proposed, discussed, and eventually promoted to Recommendations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The IVOA's [http://wiki.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/IvoaVOTable VOTable Working Group] maintains an informal list of versions and implementations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The MIME type &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;application/x-votable+xml&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; is often used for VOTable documents, but has not been registered with the IETF.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
File extensions &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;.vot&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; and &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;.xml&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt; are reasonably common, but there is no recommendation or fixed convention.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Software ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
See the IVOA Working Group page mentioned above.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Sample files ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
No collections known.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Identification ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The v1.2 VOTable XML-Schema uses the namespace &amp;lt;code&amp;gt;http://www.ivoa.net/xml/VOTable/v1.2&amp;lt;/code&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== References ==&lt;br /&gt;
