OGraf

OGRAF Logo

OGraf is an upcoming open specification for HTML-based graphics, powered by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU). Its goal is to enable modular, cross-platform broadcast graphics workflows by defining a common format for graphics packages.

Modular & Interoperable​

As OGraf is an Open Specification for HTML Graphics the ecosystem built around it will be diverse:

  • Editors / Design tools: Different applications can produce graphics in OGraf format.
  • Controllers / Playout systems: Various tools can load and control OGraf graphics (e.g. SPX Graphics Controller).

Because OGraf is built on HTML5 and Web Components, it lowers the barrier for both developers and designers by using widely supported web standards.

Project status​

OGraf is currently in draft stage. Only a few tools support it today, but adoption is growing as the specification evolves.
