International name: Validation and Transformation Language
Alternative name: VTL
Definition: Statistics-oriented language and information model used to express logical validation rules and transformations on data, whether described as a dimensional table or as unit-record data.
Comment: This logical formalisation of validation and transformation rules can be implemented in several programming languages for execution (SAS, R, Java, SQL, etc.), but will provide a "neutral" expression of the processing taking place.
