OGC ® CyberGIS plumbing for collaboration is in place Geospatial interoperability solved - several times Geospatial Web Services: WMS, WMTS, WFS, WCS including REST Geospatial Processing: Web Processing Service Workflow and Model interoperability Collaboration containers exist OWS Context OGC GeoPackage built on SQLite Improvements for the big part of “CyberGIS” Big Data applications, e.g. Apache Spark, Storm; GeoTrellis OGC Discrete Global Grid Systems Copyright © 2015 Open Geospatial Consortium

OGC ® Discrete Global Grid System (DGGS) Standards Working Group (SWG) Develop common criteria that will define conformant DGGSs –Considering Goodchild criteria Develop conceptual standard to facilitate data fusion between DGGSs using OGC Standards –to make them interoperable – with conventional and other DGGS data –to standardize operations on them Engage stakeholders to encourage new use cases and adoption of interoperability through DGGSs
OGC ® Knowledge Objects need to be conceptually modeled and implemented “Decision” and “Hypothesis” as 1 st class objects –UML Model of the concepts and linked data relationships –Ontology for Types of decisions and hypothesis –Encodings of conceptual models –Templates for Decisions and Hypothesis Recommender systems - a guess at the riddle –If I see “these conditions” then consider this “decision template” –If I am researching “these topics” then consider this “hypothesis” “Geodata fusion” Proceedings SPIE Geospatial InfoFusion III, 87470A (23 May 2013); doi: / Copyright © 2015 Open Geospatial Consortium
