description: A defined way or layout of representing and structuring data in a computer
  file, blob, string, message, or elsewhere. The main focus in EDAM lies on formats
  as means of structuring data exchanged between different tools or resources. The
  serialisation, compression, or encoding of concrete data formats/models is not in
  scope of EDAM. Format 'is format of' Data.
