Completed

The Human Physical Characteristics Description Markup Language (HPCDML) Subcommittee of the OASIS Human Markup TC will develop, design and provide specifications for HPCDML.

HPCDML will be designed to provide standardized description of physical characteristics of humans, with specific responsibility to harmonize and interoperate with widely accepted Public-Health, Medical, Biometric, Archeological, Human-Modeling and Public Safety standards.

HPCDML is a superset of HumanML and through markup language concepts will provide a communication medium for end users and software community to exchange information of greater depth and complexity than verbally-based symbolic language in isolation from non-verbal contextual information. This extended communication requires an accurate depiction of human physical behaviors.
