LENEX - Data Exchange Format
This page is in English only.
Lenex is an XML based data exchange format for swimming. The version 1.0 is used since 1999 in
different countries of Europe. With the start of the European Rankings in 2004, a general revision
of the format was done: Missing features, like records were added and unclear named tags were renamed
to proper English. The result was version 2.0 of the Lenex format.
End of 2008 with some more experience using the Lenex format a new major release, Lenex 3.0 was
published. There are some real changes, for example how result lists are represented, however the format
is very similar to verson 2.0 and files are almost 100% backward compatible.
The complete documentation in English is available as PDF document. In addition we offer some sample
files and the Lenex Checker, an online application that allows you to upload a Lenex file in order to
check it for errors.
Lenex 3.0 is the recommended data format for the European rankings of LEN. The following federations offically standardized on the Lenex format:
- Dutch Swimming Federation (NED)
- German Handicaped Sports Federation - Swimming (GER)
- Luxembourg Swimming Federation (LUX)
- Polish Swimming Federation (POL)
- Portuguese Swimming Federation (POR)
- Swiss Swimming Federation (SUI)
