International HLA and Immunogenetics Workshop XML (IHIW XML) is intended as a potentially general-purpose XML format for exchanging HLA genotyping data (HLA genotypes and associated consensus sequences) and associated meta-data generated using Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) methods. This format supports NGS based genotyping methods, phased and unphased consensus sequence data, registered methodologies, reference allele data, complete reporting of allele and genotype ambiguity and MIRING compliant reporting.
