Introducing AlpineBits Standards
AlpineBits standards are interface specifications for the exchange of tourism data that are available for free and published under CC-BY-SA.
AlpineBits standards are built on a modular structure, providing independent features that can be used based according to your implementation needs.
The AlpineBits Alliance membership allows contribution in the defining of the AlpineBits standards.
To date, two standards have been developed by the AlpineBits Alliance:
A standard for the exchange of travel and booking information based on XML messages validated against OTA 2015A.
In the current version of the standard, the scope of AlpineBits covers the exchange of the following types of information:
- reservation inquiries (GuestRequests)
- room category information (Inventory)
- room availability (FreeRooms)
- prices (RatePlans)
- hotel internal activities (ActivityData)
