LYBIN XML grensesnitt versjon 1

The acoustic ray trace model LYBIN (1) uses XML text strings to send data into the model and to give out the results from the calculations. This document describes the formats of these XML files. The motivation is to describe the XML format and to give a short overview of each of the elements. The XML interface is not static and will be further developed as the model expands and changes. The goal is that future changes mainly will be expansions so that they are compatible backwards. The XML is very flexible, only the code following the XML standard will be executed, and the rest will be ignored. This is the first complete XML format for LYBIN that is documented, and is therefore called version 1. This documentation is according to the LYBIN version per. August 2006.
