The development of standards for describing format,structure and semantic content of data is essential for itsautomatic manipulation within a grid. This paperdescribes two related pieces of work that aim to addressthis need. BinX is a language with supporting tools andlibrary for describing binary data, developed as part ofthe eDIKT project at the National eScience Centre. TheData Format Description Language (DFDL) is a GlobalGrid Forum working group which draws on the BinXwork and aims to develop an extensible standard fordescribing these features of data formats.
