OGC ® Introduction We have split our pre-meeting brief into two sessions so that “regulars” can focus on what is coming up and not have to listen to a member orientation each quarter If this is your first TC Meeting… –Please consider attending the New Member Orientation, either online later this month or on Monday morning at the TC Meeting –Introduce yourself to me via and in person –Watch out for acronyms (like “TC,” which stands for “Technical Committee”) –Stay on this call, it is for everyone!

OGC ® Reminder of TC meeting rules Practice good etiquette –Keep civil –No personal attacks –No disparaging remarks about specific members Stay relevant –No presentation of marketing pitches unless specifically invited to do so by the session chair –No rehashing old gripes: revisit a topic only if there is a compelling reason to do so Keep to time –If presenting, be courteous of the other speakers and stick to your allotted time –If chairing, kindly and firmly keep your speakers to time Copyright © 2016 Open Geospatial Consortium

OGC ® TC POLICY UPDATES Copyright © 2016 Open Geospatial Consortium

OGC ® TC policy changes for 2016 A revised TC Policies and Procedures (PnP) will go to vote request at the Closing Plenary on 10 March 2016 The current PnP has been active for more than 9 months, so it should now be familiar TC/PC guidance effective in 2016, not in current PnP –All DWGs are open by default –Individual members can vote –All citations in new OGC documents (new in 2016) must follow Springer LNCS; older documents will only be required to follow the citation style if an official revision is created Copyright © 2016 Open Geospatial Consortium

OGC ® LOOK BACK AT SYDNEY TC MEETING Copyright © 2016 Open Geospatial Consortium

OGC ® Theme: Smart Cities and IoT Host organizations arranged a group of Opening Plenary speakers to set the theme Plus… –SensorThings API Standard was approved for vote –Updates were provided on OGC Smart Cities initiatives, including FutureCities Pilot and IMIS IoT Pilot (Sensor IoT Pilot) Copyright © 2015 Open Geospatial Consortium

OpenIoT providing a cloud-based middleware infrastructure in order to deliver on-demand access to IoT services, which could be formulated over multiple infrastructure providers. (such as smart cities and smart enterprises) Knowledge-Based Future Internet Step 2: Sensor/Cloud Formulation Step 1: Sensing-as-a-ServiceRequest Step 3: Service Provisioning (Utility Metrics) Infrastructure’s provider(s) (e.g., Smart City) OpenIoT User (Citizen, Corporate) Domain #1 Domain #N OpenIoT General Vision

A Phenonet OpenIoT for Smart Farming “In the next 50 years, we will need to produce as much food as we have ever produced in the entire human history.” Objectve - Increase crop yield by performing:  Sensor-based monitoring of plants, soil and env. conditions  Data analysis for interactive assessment of crop performance  Crop selection based on expected conditions, irrigation, and fertilization

OGC ® Meeting activities Urban Activities ad hoc –Agreed to establish a public list for Smart Cities topics Coming soon… Point Cloud DWG –Approval of point cloud survey – Soil Interoperability Experiment Demonstration Copyright © 2015 Open Geospatial Consortium

OGC ® SOIL DATA INTEROPERABILITY EXPERIMENT Copyright © 2015 Open Geospatial Consortium

OGC ® Goal of the IE The primary focus of the Soil IE is the development and testing of a Soil Markup Language, a GML compatible encoding for soil features Aims –By harmonizing and advancing existing initiatives, develop a Soil Markup Language, a GML compatible information model for soil features. –Prepare an OGC/WMO IUSS engineering report with intent to develop it into a data specification subsequent to the IE. Deliverables –A demonstration of the web services in operation at an OGC TC meeting –An engineering report

OGC ® Ad hoc sessions Wednesday morning: Land Administration Wednesday afternoon: Resource Constrained Systems Thursday afternoon: Maritime Copyright © 2016 Open Geospatial Consortium

OGC ® Land Administration ad hoc What integrations are required between OGC and other Standards in the domain? Is new work needed for geospatial Standards? Copyright © 2016 Open Geospatial Consortium

OGC ® Resource Constrained Systems From the organizer: “Many systems deal with low band-width connectivity and a Size, Weight, And Power (SWAP) constrained processing environment. OGC standards are not always compatible with these constraints. This Ad-Hoc will explore whether there are enough interested members to form a DWG. The purpose of this DWG would be to educate the OGC on the constraints faced by these systems and to influence standards development to support their needs.” Copyright © 2016 Open Geospatial Consortium

OGC ® Maritime ad hoc Beyond just charting –Data distribution –Source management –Notices and logistics –… and more Copyright © 2016 Open Geospatial Consortium Marine Chart Division, National Ocean Service, NOAA
