CNML was designed for a lot of elements that described each zone, node, links and traffic from a Community Network, but finally only was implemented from guifi.net for hierarchy based on this schema:
NetJSON is designed and implemented just for elements described below that include metric and topology values. You can get NetJSON from [Netdiff Netdiff parser. Netdiff provide parsers for OLSR 0.6.x jsoninfo plugin, BATMAN-adv alfred tool, CNML and recently a beta version for BMX6 b6m plugin[1].
Also you can get NetJSON directly from nodes with Netengine tool (python library) which provide a single API to extract common information from network devices using different protocols (eg: SNMP, SSH, HTTP) and different firwmares (OpenWRT and AirOS).
