As at June 2010, two main candidate notations have been identified for evaluation:

  • The OMG QVT (Query-Verify-Transform) languages, defined in the QVT Specification
  • The tabular mapping notation used by the mapping and transformation tools on the HL7 GForge site


XSLT is a third possibility, but is currently not being considered as it is usually not easy to read and understand. Proprietary structure-to-structure (S2S) mapping notations, such as that in Altova’s MapForce, are not being considered because they do not support semantic mapping.
