@philipashlock Does this count?
Common Education Data Standards (CEDS) at https://ceds.ed.gov
What about the ISO 37120 standard to do "apples-to-apples" comparison of cities/communities? http://www.iso.org/iso/catalogue_detail?csnumber=62436
Here's a good explainer what ISO 37120 is: http://citiscope.org/story/2014/finally-clear-performance-data-comparing-worlds-cities
FYI, we used ISO 37120 guidance in computing KPIs for all 3,000+ counties and 35,000+ towns/municipalities in the US with civicdashboards.com.
Not only did we allow comparisons (http://www.civicdashboards.com/compare), we also ranked jurisdictions in their regions.
I've compiled approximately 75 programs that involve State to Federal transmission of data: https://github.com/OpenDataCT/state-federal-datasets
standardization efforts? you want schemas?
Federal Spending Transparency http://fedspendingtransparency.github.io/
FYI the spreadsheet @JJediny links to above is from Rachel Bloom's research described here: http://geothink.ca/open-data-standards-for-improving-city-governance/
I'll note that GitHub is a nightmare for building this sort of list. I recommend at least making a spreadsheet like this which grew out of a similar GitHub issue from GovEx.
The DATA Act Information Model Schema has been established by the Treasury Department under under the DATA Act to bring together all federal spending information as a single open data set. Since spending data reflects the federal government's priorities and offers a view of nearly everything the government does, there is no more important data standardization effort in government than the DAIMS.
@dsmorgan77 already shared the link: https://fedspendingtransparency.github.io/
Government has a great deal of non-XML data. There's now a standard called DFDL (Data Format Description Language), and an open-source implementation for describing the format of non-XML text and binary data. This allows conversion into/out-of XML for publishing/access. This can create a bridge between systems in place, and modern government data-publishing needs. I suggest there should be a clearinghouse for DFDL schemas, and then for important formats, some efforts to create DFDL schemas for them. The DFDL standard is (https://www.ogf.org/ogf/doku.php/standards/dfdl/dfdl) and the open-source implementation, which was DoD funded, is (https://opensource.ncsa.illinois.edu/confluence/display/DFDL).
Please suggest additional government data federation, aggregation, or standardization efforts to include here
