EO-WCS
Version 1.1 (for WCS 2.0) is in the process of being published
OGC staff held a “document clean up meeting” last week to catch up the backlog of unpublished documents; this one should be processed quickly
Incidentally, WCS 2.1 is now up for vote
Adds support for CIS 1.1

7. Processing beyond WPS in the cloud
SensorThings partly addresses processing at the Edge
Discussion in Orléans TC Meeting about Fog computing
OGC staff have drafted a White Paper (in publication)
Maybe WPS works in the Fog, but not likely at the Edge
WPS about to start major revision in alignment with WFS 3.0
RESTful
OpenAPI definition
Should be performant across clouds and through the Fog to the Edge

Datacubes/DGGS
Datacube DWG was unable to get support to form at the Orléans TC Meeting
Not because nobody likes datacubes, but…
because everyone likes datacubes too much and everyone disagrees where their home should be in the OGC
Revised Datacube DWG charter generally lays out the opinions of OGC members
DGGS is certainly a way to organize datacubes
At Orléans PC Meeting, a group was tasked to develop a datacubes white paper
To be led by Stuart Minchum of GeoScience Australia
Participation promised by ESA, NASA, NOAA, OGC staff
