Do you mean the database schema? In which case see this thread, alternatively the specifics of each database table can be looked up using define mdl_xxx; If this is not what you're looking for then you need to provide more information about the data you are looking for.

If you want to find the data types of all the fields in the Moodle database, then use adminer or phpmyadmin to look at your database.

If you want to know what the fields are used for, then you will either need to read through the PHP code, or look for the install.xml file that defines that field to see if there are any comments to explain it (or take a guess from the name, as the field names are fairly clear in many cases).
