Open standards for data are reusable agreements that make it easier for people and organisations to publish, access, share and use better quality data. There are thousands of open standards in use around the world. We have divided them into three broad categories. Open standards can fall into a single category or draw features from multiple categories to achieve their aims.

Types of open standards for data

There are thousands of open standards for data in use every day around the world. To help make sense of them, we grouped standards according to their main purpose and products.

With open standards for data, you can:

share vocabularies and common language using common models, attributes and definitions, with outputs like: registers, taxonomies, vocabularies and ontologies

exchange data within and between organisations and systems using common formats and shared rules, with outputs like: specifications, schemas and templates

provide guidance and recommendations for sharing better quality data, understanding processes and information flow, with outputs like: models, protocols, and guides
