What is OAX?
OAX – Open Airlines eXchanges is a free open standard for describing airline business and entitites, and exchanging data or service about them, with an initial focus on crew information. OAX consists in: – A standard UML model with associated documentation to define vocabulary and business entities, with their relationships. – A standard and extendible XML schema to define airline data interchange. The XML schema allows to exchange data between applications of the crew domain in a standard way. It is extendible and allows for airline-specific information. – WSDL definitions for common web services in the business, allowing eased integration between the different software packages making up for the whole information system.
