So what’s OGC’s role? So what does OGC actually do? We help agree on how we should share our data We bring together users, technical & policy people to agree on how we share data. Learning, education and sharing, knowledge and experience So what does OGC actually do?

UN-Global Geospatial Information Management Committee - Standards Guide http://ggim.un.org/docs/Standards Guide for UNGGIM - Final.pdf Joint effort between OGC, ISO TC211 and IHO at the request of the committee 2015 - Committee formally adopted the guide and companion document “as the international geospatial standards best practice for spatial data infrastructure, and encouraged all Member States to adopt and implement the recommended standards appropriate to their countries’ level of spatial data infrastructure (SDI) maturity” To help everyone better understand what standards to use, when and why. The UN-GGIM Secretariat requested OGC, ISO, and IHO (IHO) create a guide that explains the importance of open standards supporting the development of Spatial Data Infrastructure. Structured around a set of three “tiers”, covering single enterprises up to complex multiple information communities and beyond. The guide provides a model for the phased implementation of geospatial standards, considering the different levels of experience and expertise of the players involved. Excerpt from the decisions of the Fifth Session of the United Nations Committee of Experts on Global Geospatial Information Management (UN-GGIM). Held from 3-7 August 2015 at the United Nations Headquarters in New York. 5/108 Implementation and adoption of standards for the global geospatial information community The Committee of Experts: (a) Welcomed the report by the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC), Technical Committee 211 of the International Organization for Standardization (ISO/TC 211) and the International Hydrographic Organization (IHO), and thanked them and their many experts for their collaborative efforts in producing and finalising the Standards Guide and Companion Document. (b) Adopted the final published “Guide to the Role of Standards in Geospatial Information Management” and the “Technical Compendium” as the international geospatial standards best practice for spatial data infrastructure, and encouraged all Member States to adopt and implement the recommended standards appropriate to their countries’ level of spatial data infrastructure (SDI) maturity. (c) Encouraged Member States to continue to work in cooperation with the international standards bodies, including participation, as appropriate, in the work programmes of the OGC, ISO/TC211 and the IHO, and requested the standards organisations to consider mechanisms to facilitate wider training programmes and to ensure the access to standards on reasonable terms, especially for developing countries; http://ggim.un.org/docs/Standards Companion Document UN-GGIM - Final.pdf

Standards Maturity Model Tier 1 - Share maps over the Web Tier 2 - Geospatial Information sharing partnerships - share, integrate and use geospatial data from different providers Tier 3 - Spatially enabling the nation - large scale efforts to develop a ‘full-blown’ SDI that provides access to multiple themes of information, applications for using the shared information, and access via a variety of environments (mobile, desktop, etc.) The future - Towards spatially enabling the Web of data - delivering geospatial information into the Web of data, and bridging between SDI and a broader ecosystem of information systems

Standards should be driven by innovation and achieved through collaboration The Standards of organisations such as the OGC belong to all
