best way to import data from a php into tableview

I am writing my first iOS iPhone app for local Paragliding/hang gliding club. We have some wind talkers on the hill that are hooked into a server. I want to display the data as both a table, and also graph the information in the iPhone app on seperate pages. Server owner said he can re-write a PHP that can push CSV or XML to a URL with info from hill which has "timestamp, wind direction, gust speed, lull, average etc"

What is the easiest format and way to get the data into a UITableView?

You can use XML Parser or JSON Parser to fetch webservice data. There is a nice tutorial here for JSON Parsing

For XML Parsing you can take a look on this

I think JSON will be the easiest way
