The Spatial Archive and Interchange Format (SAIF, pronounced ''safe'') was defined in the early 1990s as a self-describing, extensible format designed to support interoperability and storage of geospatial data. SAIF has two major components that together define SAIFtalk. The first is the Class Syntax Notation (CSN), a data definition language used to define a dataset's schema;. theTh second is the Object Syntax Notation (OSN) , a complementary language used to represent the object data adhering to the schema.
