structured data

Structured data (in contrast to unstructured data) is a representation of information such that its content is machine-actionable by a deterministic process, i.e. it does not require interpretation by a human or by statistical means (i.e., artificial intelligence). The structure represented by a structured data object is of course a data structure (which would have a different representation inside a running program). An example of structured data (assuming some kind of schema to communicate the semantics) would be JSON.
