OGC Testbed 13 Outcomes and Information on the OGC Testbed 14 Cristiano Lopes 12/04/2018

OGC Testbeds - Recall Part of the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) Interoperability Program (IP). The IP provides global, hands-on, collaborative prototyping for rapid development and delivery of proven candidate specifications to the OGC Standards Program. A Testbed is a collaborative research and development effort to develop, architect, test, and demonstrate candidate standards for interoperability. In a Testbed participants collaborate to examine specific geo-processing interoperability questions posed by the initiative’s Sponsors. Testbeds are all about experimentation and exploration of solutions that can be in the future used for standards.

TB13 Earth Observation Clouds (EOC) Thread Thread composed of two independent Work Packages. Sponsored by NRCan and ESA. Cloud API interoperability Look into into how Cloud APIs can be standardized, so interaction with different clouds would have minimal impact on the customer’s components. Changing cloud services across providers would be a smooth experience. Thematic Exploitation Platform - Application portability Investigate how to easily transfer an application or application components from one cloud service to a comparable cloud service and run the application in the target cloud service, without making significant changes to the application code.
