© 2006 OpenGridForum 2 Why OGC? Open Geospatial Consortium ~80% of all data collected or produced by the human race is geospatially referenced ~80% of all data collected or produced by the human race is geospatially referenced “Helping the World to Communicate Geographically” Any type of geospatial data Anything that goes on a map A Few Current OGC Standards Web Map Server (WMS) Web Feature Server (WFS) Web Coverage Server (WCS) Catalog Service for Web (CSW) Commercialization of these standards ESRI (

© 2006 OpenGridForum 3 OGC-OGF Common Objective Promote international standardization with the goal of providing distributed data processing capabilities for geospatial data users in a way that is: TransparentTransparent -- the users do not have to be aware of the exact data and computing resources they are using or the details about doing so, InteroperableInteroperable -- the data and computing resources can come from different sites, and ScalableScalable -- the same user model can service small computing tasks that can be done locally, as well as large computing tasks that require massive remote platforms.

© 2006 OpenGridForum 6 Potential OGC-OGF Joint Projects 2 Integration of WPS with workflow management tools Multiple WPS calls may necessary to produce the desired data products Workloads managed by scripting languages, compiled code, or by workflow management engines Swift Simple API for Grid Applications (SAGA) Workflow engines DAGMan, Pegasus, Kepler, Taverna, and Triana, just to name a few

© 2006 OpenGridForum 7 Potential OGC-OGF Joint Projects 3 Integration of OGC Federated Catalogues and Data Repositories with grid data movement tools HTTP as the transport is certainly possible Byte-IO, GridFTP, others possible Need for secure, third-party transfers?
