I. Introduction

I.A. Background

Ever since software has become a part of amateur radio, there have been as many data formats as there have been ham radio software programmers.  Hams have struggled with converting data among various formats.  In early 1996 KK7A promoted the idea of a standard for exchange of ham data, and an Internet reflector was set up for discussing such a standard.  Ray WF1B and Dennis WN4AZY, publishers of commercial ham radio software, took the best suggestions from this discussion and proposed the Amateur Data Interface Format (ADIF), which Ray introduced as ADIF 1.0 at the 1996 Dayton Hamvention.  Within a year, this standard was adopted by most software publishers.

Starting In 2002, ADIF 2.0.0 initiated a period of upward-compatible expansion during which new data types, formal enumerations, additional fields, and enumeration values were added.

During 2010, the need to support international characters led to this proposal to define a second file format (syntax) that would introduce international data types using Unicode encoded with UTF-8, and that would employ XML syntax.  This second file format, referred to as ADX, references the same Data Types, Enumerations, and Fields as are referenced by the original ADIF file format, now referred to as ADI.

I.B. Development

If you would like to discuss the specification, request a change, or report errors, please join the ADIF Developers Group.

The ADIF Developers Group produces the ADIF specification and is open to developers of logging software, web sites, amateur radio applications, and others who have a vested interest in the ADIF standard and who will actively participate in its definition, maintenance, and promotion.  Decisions are made by majority vote in the ADIF Voting group, with each application or service represented by exactly one ADIF Voting group member.

I.C. Applicability

ADIF's purpose is to enable the reliable transfer of amateur radio information from one application or service to another.  This is accomplished by defining precise text-based representations for amateur radio information.  These representations can be conveyed in files, over networks, or as web service parameters and results.
It imposes no requirements on any database or user interface employed by any application or service other than when exporting or importing ADIF.

1.D. Support of Fields

Each application or service can decide which fields to support; it is NOT a requirement to support all of them.

There are some dependencies between fields such that a field may be meaningless without another field to set a context.  In this case, it is recommended that if the dependant field is exported, so is the field that it depends on.  An example is:
STATE depends on DXCC
So, DXCC can be exported without exporting STATE.  However, if STATE is exported, DXCC should be exported too.

A frequently asked question is "What ADIF fields must be included to represent a QSO?".  This decision is beyond the scope of the ADIF specification and is one for application developers to make; however, a suggestion is to represent when the QSO took place, on what band or frequency, the mode, and the contacted station's callsign; the fields concerned are:
QSO_DATE, TIME_ON, FREQ and/or BAND, CALL, MODE

1.E. Changes from Previous Versions

The following changes from the previous versions may necessitate application code or data changes:

3.1.3

3.1.2

3.1.1


II. Policies

II.A. Upward Compatibility

From one version of ADIF to the next, Data Types, Enumerations, Fields, and Formats shall be upwardly compatible, meaning that an ADIF file compliant with ADIF version N will comply with any future ADIF version M where M>N.

II.B. Deprecation

Deprecated fields and enumeration values shall be accepted when importing an ADIF file, but shall not be emitted when exporting an ADIF file.  Deprecated items in this specification are characterized as "Import-only".


III. Data Types, Enumerations, and Fields

III.C.2 Application-defined Fields

Applications may define their own fields.  To avoid naming collisions, such fields must include the name of the logger, converter, or utility that either created or will process the ADIF file in which they appear:

 

III.C.3 User-defined Fields

A user-defined field is specified by a USERDEF Header field.


IV. File Formats

IV.A. ADI File Format

IV.A.1. ADI Data-Specifiers

Data-Specifiers used to convey data in an ADI file are composed of a case-independent field name F, a data length L, and an optional data type indicator T separated by colons and enclosed in angle brackets, followed by data D of length L:

<F:L:T>D

The data length L is a sequence of ASCII digits representing an unsigned decimal integer with value greater than or equal to zero.  Leading zeros are import-only.

<NAME:0>

<NAME:3>Ray

Field definitions do not specify a maximum length. ADI-exporting applications can place as much data in a Data-Specifier as they choose. ADI-importing applications can import as much data from a Data-Specifier as they choose.

Data type indicators are case insensitive; they are optional, and typically omitted when obvious, e.g.

<CALL:4>WF1B

Fields of type IntlCharacter, IntlString, and IntlMultilineString cannot be used in ADI files.

All ADIF-compliant applications must import or export ADI files.

IV.A.2. ADI File Structure

An ADI file begins with an optional Header followed by one or more Records:

Header
Record
Record
...
Record

IV.A.3. ADI Header

A Header begins with any character other than < and terminates with a case-insensitive End-Of-Header tag:

<EOH>

If the first character in an ADI file is <, it contains no Header. A Header may contain arbitrary text of type String, as well as zero or more Header-Data-Specifiers, Data-Specifiers that convey data for a Header Field; in the Header-Data-Specifier:

<adif_ver:5>3.0.5

the field name is adif_ver, the data length is 5, and 3.0.5 is the data.

Here's an ADI Header that includes text, and uses Header Fields to convey the ADIF version number, the name of the generating application, and the definitions of three user-defined fields:

Generated on 2011-11-22 at 02:15:23Z for WN4AZY

<adif_ver:5>3.0.5
<programid:7>MonoLog
<USERDEF1:8:N>QRP_ARCI
<USERDEF2:19:E>SweaterSize,{S,M,L}

<USERDEF3:15>ShoeSize,{5:20}
<EOH>

IV.A.4. Application-defined Fields

In ADI files, the form of an Application-defined QSO Field is

APP_PROGRAMID_FIELDNAME

where

An application whose name is MONOLOG could thus convey the contacted operator's birthday using

<APP_MONOLOG_BIRTHDAY:8:D>19470726

To facilitate importing, display, and editing by other applications, instances of application-defined fields should include the optional Data Type Indicator, as shown in the above example, which can be for any Data type except Digit and Character.  If a Data type Indicator is not included, the field contents must conform to the MultilineString data type.  Note that the first occurrence of an Application-defined field in a file determines its Data type and subsequent occurrences of the field must not attempt to change that Data type.

IV.A.5. User-defined Fields

In ADI files, the nth User-defined QSO Field is defined with USERDEFn Header field whose HeaderDataSpecifier specifies a field name and, optionally, an enumeration or range:

<USERDEFn:L:D>FIELDNAME
<USERDEFn:L:D>FIELDNAME,{Optional-Enumeration-or-Range}

where

For example,

<USERDEF1:3:N>EPC
<USERDEF2:19:E>SweaterSize,{S,M,L}
<USERDEF3:15:N>ShoeSize,{5:20}

In a Record, user-defined fields names can directly appear in QSO-Data-Specifiers, e.g.

<sweatersize:1>M

IV.A.6. ADI Records

A Record is one or more QSO-Data-Specifiers, Data-Specifiers that convey data for a QSO Field, followed by a case-insensitive End-Of-Record tag

<EOR>

In the QSO-Data-Specifier

<CALL:6:S>WN4AZY

the field name is CALL, the data length is 6, the optional data type indicator is S (signifying String), and the data is WN4AZY.

Within a Record, QSO-Data-Specifiers may appear in any order.

Characters outside QSO-Data-Specifiers and outside End-of-Record tags are ignored.  If the file contains a Header record, characters after the End-of-Header tag and prior to the first QSO-Data-Specifier are also ignored.  This permits the insertion of line break characters to improve readability by users, or the insertion of any other information an ADI-exporting application cares to provide; ADI-importing applications are free to ignore such characters.

A QSO Record describing a QSO with WN4AZY made on May 13, 1996 at 1305Z could look like this

<call:6>WN4AZY<band:3>20M<mode:4>RTTY<qso_date:8>19960513<time_on:4>1305<eor>

or like this:

<qso_date:8>19960513
<time_on:4>1305
<call:6>WN4AZY
<band:3>20M
<mode:4>RTTY
<eor>

If the first character of an ADI file is <, it is presumed to be the first character of the the first QSO-Data-Specifier of the first QSO Record of an ADI file that does not include a Header.

IV.B. ADX File Format

An ADX file employs XML syntax and UTF-8 encoding, and is comprised of a root ADX element that contains a HEADER element and a RECORDS element; the RECORDS element contains zero or more RECORD elements:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ADX>
<HEADER><HEADERFIELDNAME>Data</HEADERFIELDNAME> ...
<HEADERFIELDNAME>Data</HEADERFIELDNAME></HEADER>
<RECORDS>
<RECORD><QSOFIELDNAME>Data</QSOFIELDNAME> ...
<QSOFIELDNAME>Data</QSOFIELDNAME></RECORD>
<RECORD><QSOFIELDNAME>Data</QSOFIELDNAME> ...
<QSOFIELDNAME>Data</QSOFIELDNAME></RECORD>
...
<RECORD><QSOFIELDNAME>Data</QSOFIELDNAME> ...
<QSOFIELDNAME>Data</QSOFIELDNAME></RECORD>
</RECORDS>
</ADX>

where HEADERFIELDNAME can be any field permitted in a HEADER element, and QSOFIELDNAME can be a name of any field permitted in a RECORD element.

In ADX files,

 

ADIF-compliant applications need not import or export ADX files.

IV.B.1. Permissible XML Constructs

XML namespaces and processing instructions in ADX files are ignored.  CDATA sections must not be present within elements representing ADIF fields.

Document declarations (<!DOCTYPE ...) and entities other than those predefined in XML are not permitted; &amp; is allowed, for example, but &topband; is not allowed.

IV.B.2. Application-defined Fields

In ADX files, an Application-defined QSO Field employs the form

<APP PROGRAMID="PROGRAMID" FIELDNAME="FIELDNAME" TYPE="DATATYPEINDICATOR">DATA</APP>

where

An application whose name is MONOLOG could thus convey the contacted operator's birthday with

<APP PROGRAMID="MONOLOG" FIELDNAME="BIRTHDAY" TYPE="d">19470726</APP>

IV.B.3. User-defined Fields

In ADX files, the nth User-defined QSO Field is defined in the Header by

<USERDEF FIELDID="n" TYPE="DATATYPEINDICATOR" ENUM="{A,B, ... N}"
RANGE="{LOWERBOUND:UPPERBOUND}">FIELDNAME</USERDEF>

where

<HEADER>
...

<USERDEF FIELDID="1" TYPE="N">EPC</USERDEF>
<USERDEF FIELDID="2" TYPE="E" ENUM="{S,M,L}">SWEATERSIZE</USERDEF>
<USERDEF FIELDID="3" TYPE="N" RANGE="{5:20}">SHOESIZE</USERDEF>
...
</HEADER>

In a Record, user-defined fields are conveyed using the form

<USERDEF FIELDNAME="FIELDNAME">DATA</USERDEF>

where FIELDNAME is the name of a user-defined field defined in the Header and DATA is replaced by the data being conveyed, e.g.

<RECORDS>
...
<RECORD>
...
<USERDEF FIELDNAME="EPC">32123</USERDEF>
<USERDEF FIELDNAME="SweaterSize">M</USERDEF>
<USERDEF FIELDNAME="ShoeSize">11</USERDEF>
...
</RECORD>
</RECORDS>

If a Data Type Indicator is included in a user defined field in a Record, the Data Type Indicator is ignored.
