  9. TCDF – Aviation Code Forms • The migration of METAR, SPECI SIGMET and TAF is supposed to be completed by November 2016. • WMO has developed its Logical Data Model (LDM) in Unified Modeling Language (UML) for the aviation code forms, but ICAO would like the data in eXtensibleMarkup Language (XML). • It is intended that XML data will not be read directly by humans as all visualisations will be through the use of computers.
