The SWIM Service Description Specification prescribes the minimum set of elements to be contained in a service description. However, it does not prescribe a specific format for the service description. Whatever the format, it is important to be able to satisfy the requirements.
This section of the handbook provides examples for a fictitious TOBTSetting service in different formats:
- Example service description - Donlon TOBT Setting Service. This is presented as a series of tables (such as those that could appear on a web page or in a document).
- JSON format that conforms to the Service Metadata Schema
Of course you can also find service descriptions in the European SWIM Registry.
