6 CEOS Working Group on Information Systems and Services - 6 WGISS Background WGISS aims to assist CEOS participating members and associates, as data and information providers supporting users worldwide towards easy access and application of Earth observation data and information. Thus, WGISS aims to address the needs of data providers by improving the efficiency of operation and maximizing the utilization and benefit of the EO data that they gather. WGISS will also address the needs of data and information users by providing simpler and wider access to the resources they require.

7 CEOS Working Group on Information Systems and Services - 7 WGISS Background The scope of WGISS is to provide a framework for addressing the long-term needs of both data and service providers to better serve the users. As such, WGISS addresses all activities related to the capture, description, processing, access, retrieval, utilization, maintenance, archiving and exchange of space borne Earth Observation data and supporting ancillary data and information, enabling improved interoperability and interconnectivity of Earth observation information systems and services, combining space borne EO data with in-situ data.
