What is the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC)? OGC Membership Distribution By Region • An International Voluntary Consensus Standards Organization, founded in 1994. • 400 members and growing: industry, government, research, university • 28 implementation standards • Hundreds of product implementations in the market • Alliances and collaborative activities with many other SDO’s OGC Membership Distribution By Type OGC Mission OGC Mission To lead in the development, promotion and harmonization of To lead in the development, promotion and harmonization of open geospatial standards … open geospatial standards … Helping the World to Communicate Geographically Market Availability Market Availability see see http://www.opengeospatial.org/resource/products http://www.opengeospatial.org/resource/products • Free availability of standards stimulates market • Hundreds of Products Implementing OGC Standards • Compliance Test & Certification Program Copyright © 2010, Open Geospatial Consortium, Inc., Helping the World to Communicate Geographically Copyright (c) 2009, Open Geospatial Consortium, Inc. 5 OGC Geography Markup Language (GML) OGC Geography Markup Language (GML) • XML-based language for encoding geographic information to be stored and transported over the Internet • GML serves as a modeling language for geographic systems as well as an open interchange format for geographic transactions on the Internet. • GML defines both the geometry and properties of objects that comprise geographic information. • Used in UK, US, Germany, Canada, New Zealand, Holland, Hong Kong, Google Helping the World to Communicate Geographically Copyright © 2007, Open Geospatial Consortium, Inc., All Rights Reserved. GML and IETF PIDF Location Object (LO) GML and IETF PIDF Location Object (LO) • Presence Information Data Format (RFC 4119) – The PIDF LO RFC extends PIDF to allow the encapsulation of location information within a presence document. – (PIDF) is a common presence data format for CPP-compliant presence protocols, allowing presence information to be transferred across CPP- compliant protocol boundaries without modification, with attendant benefits for security and performance. • Why? – Without this standard, cannot provide sufficient Presence Service • GeoPriv Working Group in IETF developing a GML GeoShape Application Schema for use in internet standards. – Approved as OGC Best Practices paper, December 2006 • Now a mandatory requirement for expressing location in a variety of internet standards Helping the World to Communicate Geographically Copyright © 2007, Open Geospatial Consortium, Inc., All Rights Reserved. Use of GML by OASIS Use of GML by OASIS • There is now a GML Oasis Application Schema for use in a variety of OASIS standards. This application schema was developed by OGC staff and members and submitted to OASIS. – Is now being used in HAVE – Is now being used in EDXL-RM – Both CAP and EDXL-DE revisions will incorporate this work.

GeoRSS GML GeoRSS GML • GeoRSS – Simple encoding for location for RSS feeds • GeoRSS GML – Points, lines, polygons, and rectangles. • Broadly implemented, including support in MS LiveLocal, Google Earth and Google Maps API • Consideration to bring this GML schema into the OGC for approval.
