Proposal of human body description format XML schema and validation of anthropometric parameters

In this paper, the development of XML schema of newly proposed Human body description format (HBDF) is proposed and further, the software solution for processing the anthropometric parameters of the human body is presented. The analysis covers information on the HBDF format and specific measurement procedures that are associated with the format and together form a coherent structure for the recording of such data. The structure of the format itself is implemented as XML schema, determining the content of XML outputs. Experimental software solution is designed and proves valid in the examination of HBDF structure. Schema ensures the data coherency and integrity, while the proposed solution ensures the import, operation, and export of data. The XML schema was experimentally tested as a part of multiple research projects.
