Hi Sean – you might want to contact Dan Tetlow and/or Gerd Heber, see Gerd’s 
reply to Dan’s post of Feb 10 2015  
http://hdf-forum.184993.n3.nabble.com/XML-generation-and-validation-of-HDF5-tc4027755.html#a4027757
 in which he asks a very similar question and discusses the possible use of the 
HDF5 XML DTD for defining a schema.
Regards,

Subject: [Hdf-forum] Is there an HDF5 schema description language?

I am wondering whether there is any standard language (or attempt to develop 
one) for describing HDF5 schemas. That is, a language for specifying:

- the rooted directed graph containing all the named objects (Groups, Datasets, 
Named Datatypes)
- the metadata (attributes, Datatype, Dataspace) associated with each named 
object

I am imagining something similar to JSONSchema: http://json-schema.org/.

Thanks,
Sean
