Overview

The Empire Challenge Pilot will begin as a concept development initiative designed to illustrate to NGA and organizations participating in Empire Challenge the value of 1) adopting OGC and other open standards to improve plug and play interoperability to meet mission needs and 2) engaging OGC industry collaborative programs to fur...

The OGC Web Services, Phase 5 (OWS-5) Testbed was an initiative of OGC's Interoperability Program to collaboratively extend and demonstrate OGC's baseline for geospatial interoperability. The main development of OWS-5 was conducted from July 2007 to April 2008.

The Federated Earth Observation Missions (FedEO) Pilot will provide a broad international venue for operational prototyping and demonstration of Earth Observation (EO) requirements as defined by the sponsor, the European Space Agency (ESA), and by other OGC members. OGC seeks additional sponsorship for complimentary requirements.

The Geographic Objects Initiative defined platform-independent and implementation-neutral interface models of specific geographic services or component objects. The specific Geographic Object interfaces modeled relate to mapping processes (render or query, for example) or an input or output of those processes (a coordinate or a map, for example).

The OGC "Geo-interface for Atmosphere, Land, Earth, and Ocean netCDF" (GALEON) Interoperability Experiment supports open access to atmospheric and oceanographic modeling and simulation outputs.

GALEON Phase I completed in 2007. GALEON Phase II started shortly after. However, Phase II is currently dormant awaiting the completion of the revision to ...

This proposed OGC Interoperability Experiment (IE) is intended to create and test a candidate specification for a Sensor Alert Service (SAS). This work is part of the ongoing OGC Sensor Web Enablement (SWE) effort.

Technical Approach

The OGC Sensor Web Enablement (WSE) Working Group has recognized that a missing piece of the SWE suite o...

Technology Insertion Project. The CTI Project, sponsored by the US Army Corps of Engineers, Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC), integrated multiple map servers, including nodes at the Corps' Mississippi Valley Division and the New Orleans District Office. Insertion Projects focus on expanding an organization’s interoperability capacity by ...
