Common Markup Language for Address/Location

I'm looking for a standard markup language to transmit addresses (locations). I really need nothing more complicated than a list of addresses with some metadata, each requiring a name, address, state, phone, email, geocoordinates, and some other metadata. I don't want to have to parse these addresses into their constituent parts; I need them transmitted as discrete parts.

I've looked into both GML and KML and neither seems to fit the bill. I could get what I want done with KML, using a list of Placemarks and storing the pieces of the address in the ExtendedData as known key value pairs. However, this seems like trying to fit a square peg into a round h开发者_运维技巧ole since KML is so centered around display. I looked at OASIS xAL (which KML uses) as well, but it seemed overkill for what I am doing, and documentation is sparse.

Additionally, I'm hoping to find a solution that already has a .NET library built around it.

If I have to I can create my own ML simple enough, but using a standard will give me great power when pushing back on customers who want us to handle their custom Excel documents.

Thanks!


You didn't mention XML.

Any reason why that won't fit the bill? Excellent support in the standard library.
