This was just announced on sursound. Might be worthwhile to adopt for 
anyone working with spatial audio datasets and files...

Dear Sursounders,

We are pleased to announce the recent publication of the AES69-2015 
standard for file exchange - Spatial acoustic data file format. See also 
the AES press release at http://www.aes.org/press/?ID=293 
<http://www.aes.org/press/?ID=293>

The new AES69-2015 standard defines a file format to exchange 
space-related acoustic data in various forms. These include HRTF, as 
well as directional room impulse responses (DRIR). The format is 
designed to be scalable to match the available rendering process and to 
be sufficiently flexible to include source materials from different 
databases.

This project was developed in AES Standards Working Group SC-02-08 and 
standardizes the Spatially-oriented format for acoustics (SOFA), which 
aims at storing and transmitting any transfer-function data measured 
with microphone arrays and loudspeaker arrays. See 
http://www.sofaconventions.org/ <http://www.sofaconventions.org/> for 
further information and ongoing format discussions.

Open source application-programming interfaces (API) for Matlab, Octave, 
and C++ are available online at 
http://sourceforge.net/projects/sofacoustics/ 
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/sofacoustics/>

All the best,

Markus and Piotr
