IPR WG REPORT November B.SUMMARY TECHNICAL STATUS The purpose of this Working Group is to: 1.Collect use cases from the space operations community and develop requirements for XML data packaging 2.Develop a set of recommendations that specify an extensible framework for packaging data and metadata, that can contain an object physically, by Universal Resource Locator(URL) or by Universal Resource Identifier(URI) or by Universal Resource Name(URN), includes the ability to express appropriate relationships, using XML and related techniques, and the implementation of the packaging format in an appropriate set of network and file protocol 3.Oversee the implementation of at least two implementations of the packaging framework, associated with usability and interoperability tests in many areas of space data systems 4.Based on testing develop a second version of the recommendations Based on testing experience and requirements from various Space Data and Operations Groups, establish a registry/repository standard that is extensible, addressing data structures and information modeling, that leverages the more widely based registry work such as ebXML and that also supports the data packaging registry/repository requirements.
