[CCSDS Observers] CCSDS Review of CCSDS 505.0-P-2.1, XML Specification for Navigation Data Messages

[CCSDS Rapporteur]

Control Number: RP 22-27

The following draft CCSDS Recommended Standard has been placed on line for CCSDS Agency review:

     CCSDS 505.0-P-2.1. XML Specification for Navigation Data 
                        Messages. Pink Book. Issue 2.1. November 2022.

DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION:  The XML Specification for Navigation Data Messages Recommended Standard describes an integrated XML schema set that is suited to interagency exchanges of navigation data messages. The current draft update removes detailed material related to creating XML instantiations of the Orbit Data Messages (ODM) (this material is now described in the ODM version 3) and rearranges the document annexes relative to the previous version to conform to a guideline developed for all of the CCSDS Navigation Working Group documents.

The due date for receipt of Agency review comments by the CCSDS Review Coordinator is 8 February 2023.  More information is available at the Web site identified below.

The review document, in Portable Document Format (PDF), and associated review materials are available for downloading at the following location:
