The European Grid of Solar Observations (EGSO) is a project to develop a virtual observatory for the solar physics community. Like in all such projects, a vital component is a schema that adequately describes the data in the distributed data sets. Here, we discuss the schema in general terms, and present a draft example of a portion of a possible XML schema.
