CSV on the Web Edit

CSVW is a standard for describing and clarifying the content of CSV tables.

The CSVW syntax specification describes a data model for tabular data. That is to say, it defines that a table is a collection of cells arranged into columns and rows. It also describes how to annotate a table with a metadata file to help processors parse and interpret the contents.

The schema for the metadata file is provided by the CSVW metadata vocabulary. The vocabulary defines the properties that can be used in an annotation. This includes things like a schema of column descriptions, datatypes and foreign key relations.
