The landscape of standard developing organizations - SDOs ”… the nice thing about standards, is that there are so many of them to choose from…” Source: Andrew S. Tanenbaum, and others …? Equally, it can be said – there are so many SDOs, who’s who in this landscape? © 2016 Open Geospatial Consortium

A high-level classification – the landscape Many, like IHO, DGIWG, WMO, ICAO, but also OGC and ISO/TC 211 Domain related geospatial standards Generic geospatial standards ISO/TC 211, OGC, but also others … Basic ICT standards and other cross-discipline standards W3C, OASIS, IETF, IEEE,ISO/IEC JTC1, OMG, etc. © 2016 Open Geospatial Consortium

OGC Alliance Partners A Critical Resource for Advancing Standards Geospatial interoperability is our mission and our expertise. OGC has alliances with other major standards and professional organizations to assure that geospatial interoperability is consistently addressed across the broader IT community. There is a growing body of internet standards that employ OGC standards (such as OGC Geography Markup Language) to consistently define and address “location” across the internet and wireless. … and others www.opengeospatial.org/ogc/alliancepartners © 2016 Open Geospatial Consortium

© 2016 Open Geospatial Consortium What is an OGC Standard? A document, established by consensus and approved by the OGC Membership, that provides rules and guidelines, aimed at the optimum degree of interoperability in a given context. It is publically available and free to use. Influences Community requirements Member requirements Market trends Technology trends CityGML Levels of Detail © 2016 Open Geospatial Consortium

OGC Services Architecture Visualization / Decision Tools and Applications Data Models and Encodings NetCDF GMLJP2 GML KML WMC GeoPackage OpenGeoSMS Discovery Services CSW OpenSearch Geo ebRIM Processing Services Workflow, Alerts TJS WPS WCPS Access Services SOS SPS O&M SensorML Sensor Web Enablement Acronym List: Catalog Web Service (CSW) - Support the ability to publish and search collections of descriptive information (metadata) for data, services, and related information objects. Web Map Service (WMS) - XML encoding for the transport and storage of geographic information modeled according to the conceptual modeling framework including both the spatial and non-spatial properties of geographic features. Web Map Tile Service (WMTS) - Serves digital maps using predefined image tiles and complements the existing Web Map Service providing flexibility in the client request enabling clients to obtain the precise final image required. Web Coverage Service (WCS) – Provides access to detailed and rich sets of geospatial information in forms that are useful for client-side rendering, multi-valued coverages, and input into scientific models and other clients. Web Coverage Service Transactional (WCS-T) - Enables clients to add, modify, and delete grid coverages that are available from a WCS server. Web Feature Service (WFS) – Defines the interfaces for data access and manipulation operations on geographic features, feature information behind a map image. Web Feature Service Transactional (WFS-T) - Enables clients to add, modify, and delete feature data that are available from a WFS server. Sensor Planning Service (SPS) - Enables a client to determine collection feasibility for a desired set of collection requests for sensors and directly task those sensors. Sensor Observation Service (SOS) - Interface for requesting, filtering, and retrieving observations and sensor system information. Sensor Model Language (SML) - Enables users to access sensors; their location, their capabilities, and the data they acquire along with the ability to process the data through a standards-based, non-proprietary web interface. Observation & Measurements (O&M) - Specifies the core model, framework, and encoding for measurements and observations. Observation & Measurements XML (O&M XML) - XML schemas for observations, and for features involved in sampling when making observations. Geo eXtended Access Control Markup Language (GeoXACML) - An extension to the eXtensible Access Control Markup Language (XACML) Policy Language that supports the declaration and enforcement of access restrictions on geographic information. Styled Layer Descriptor (SLD) – Provides analysts control of the visual portrayal of the data with which they work. Symbology Encoding (SE) - an XML language to encode user-defined styling information that can be applied to digital Feature and Coverage data. Geography Markup Language (GML) - XML encoding for the transport and storage of geographic information modeled according to the conceptual modeling framework. KeyHole Markup Language (KML) - XML language focused on geographic visualization and used to encode and transport representations of geographic data for display in web browser, including annotation of maps and images. Filter Encoding (FE) - an XML encoding of the OGC Common Catalog Query Language (CQL) as a system neutral query representation. Web Map Context (WMC) - XML schemas for observations, and for features involved in sampling when making observations. Table Join Service (TJS) –Provides a mechanism to expose corporate tabular data, with geographic identifiers so that it can be discovered, accessed, and merged with spatial data to enable mapping or geospatial analysis. Table Join Service Transactional (TJS-T) - Enables clients to add, modify, and delete tabular data available from a TJS server. Web Processing Service (WPS) - WPS provides client access across a network to pre-programmed calculations and/or computation models that operate on spatially referenced data. Geo Short Message Service (GeoSMS) - Facilitate communication of location content between different LBS (Location-Based Service) devices or applications by extending Short Messaging Service (SMS). GeoSynchronization Service (GeoSynch) - Enables data collectors to submit new data or make modifications to existing data without directly affecting the data in the provider's data store(s) until validation has been applied.

W3C / OGC Spatial Data on the Web Working Group Location, Place, Linked-Data, Semantics, Time Bringing location to everything on the web http://www.opengeospatial.org/projects/groups/sdwwg To create started almost a year ago. Challenging to bring two standards processes into sync. Happened because the developer community requested that the two standards organisations make one standard jointly – we listened. Full charter on the web that outlines the complete scope, currently calling for work group members, preference to organisations that are members of both W3C & OGC. First F2F meeting will be in Barcelona at OGC TC. Aiming for a draft by July 2016
