6.6-B Data export and exchange format
Data that is exported and exchanged between systems and devices SHALL use a non-restrictive, publicly-available format.
Applies To: Voting system
Test Reference: Part 3: 3.5 “Interoperability Testing”, 4.3 “Verification of Design Requirements”
DISCUSSION
This is a goal-oriented requirement to promote interoperability of exported data and data exchanged between devices. For example, CVRs exported from different devices should use the same common format so that they can be easily aggregated for use in random audits. Reports from ballot activation devices or other devices that produce reports should use common formats that, if necessary, can be mapped to locality-specific formats.
