COLLADA is a popular open file format for storing 3D meshed models. It is based on XML. COLLADA stands for COLLAborative Design Activity and is designed to be an interchange file format for 3D applications. It is managed by the nonprofit technology consortium, the Khronos Group, and has been adopted by ISO as a publicly available specification, ISO/PAS 17506. COLLADA defines an open standard XML schema for exchanging digital assets.
