There is a need for a text-based notation for representing topic maps as defined in ISO/IEC 13250:2003. Such a notation would complement the existing XML interchange syntax (XTM), and provide a simple, compact notation for:
- manually authoring topic maps
- providing human-readable examples
- providing a common, lightweight syntax as a basis for TMCL and TMQL
Two text-based notations already exist and have achieved widespread use in the Topic Maps community: the Linear Topic Map Notation (LTM) and AsTMa=. They are principally used for manually authoring topic maps and for providing short, human-readable examples in documents.
However, both of these notations are proprietary. As Topic Maps achieves greater adoption in the wider community, the goals of interchange are better served by having a single, standardized notation. In addition, Topic Maps Constraint Language (ISO 19756) and Topic Maps Query Language (ISO 18048), both of which are currently under development, require a simple text-based notation. By defining CTM at this stage, all of these requirements can be harmonized.
If approved, CTM will become Part 6 of ISO 13250.
