Open data standards support many kinds of reporting organizations, and many kinds of data, from statutory financial statements to greenhouse gas emissions to descriptive narratives.
Because XBRL is a semantic data model that describes the structure of whatever data is reported, it is technology-agnostic and can be transported by commonly used technical formats, including XML, CSV, JSON, and XHTML. While these are today’s widely used formatting technologies, tomorrow new technologies may be introduced. The XBRL standard is designed to adapt to changes in technologies as well as industry and regulatory need.
