FME World Tour 2016: INSPIRE data harmonisation with FME (GIM)GIM_nv
This document discusses the INSPIRE Directive, which aims to create a European Union spatial data infrastructure. It seeks to harmonize geographic data across borders by establishing common data specifications. The summary discusses how FME software can help organizations collect, harmonize, and share geospatial data to comply with INSPIRE standards by automating workflows for data transformation, quality checks, and publishing services. FME offers a no-code solution to help manage complex INSPIRE data mapping and prepare data to be discoverable and usable across Europe.
The document discusses the INSPIRE Geoportal, which provides centralized access to INSPIRE infrastructure and resources across Europe. It describes the geoportal's architecture and how it connects national discovery and view services to allow for cross-border data discovery and visualization. The geoportal aims to support European policymaking by providing a user-friendly interface that complies with INSPIRE directives and technical standards. Practical exercises demonstrate how users can search for and access spatial data and services through the INSPIRE Geoportal.

UAVs are a disruptive technology bringing new geographic data and information to many application domains. UASs are similar to other geographic imagery systems so existing frameworks are applicable. But the diversity of UAVs as platforms along with the diversity of available sensors are presenting challenges in the processing and creation of geospatial products. Efficient processing and dissemination of the data is achieved using software and systems that implement open standards. The challenges identified point to the need for use of existing standards and extending standards. Results from the use of the OGC Sensor Web Enablement set of standards are presented. Next steps in the progress of UAVs and UASs may follow the path of open data, open source and open standards.

Time, Change and Habits in Geospatial-Temporal Information StandardsGeorge Percivall
Keynote for HIC 2014 – 11th International Conference on Hydroinformatics, New York, USA August 17 – 21, 2014
Time, Change and Habits in Geospatial-Temporal Information Standards
Time and change are fundamental to our scientific understanding of the world. Standards for geospatial-temporal information exist but new needs outstrip current standards. Geospatial-temporal information includes capturing change in features and coverages and modeling the processes that inform change. Key standards for time, calendars, and temporal reference systems are in place. Time series modeling from the WaterML standard is a recent advance of high value to hydrology. The OGC Moving Features standard will establish an encoding format for changes in “rigid” features. Interoperability standards are needed for Coverages with values that change based on observations, analytical expressions, or simulations. Applying a coverage model to time-varying, fluid Earth systems was the topic of the ground breaking GALEON Interoperability Experiment. Standards developments for spatial-temporal process models is progressing with WPS, OpenMI and ESMF - supporting a Model Web concept. A robust framework for sharing geospatial-temporal information is now coming into place based on developments captured in standards by ISO, WMO, ITU, ICSU and OGC - including the newly established OGC Temporal domain working group. The new framework will enable capabilities in expressing and sharing scientific investigations including research on the emergence of forms over time. With these new capabilities we may come to understand Peirce’s observation that over time “all things have a tendency to take habits.”
Presentation Location and Context World, 2015. Palo Alto, CA November 3-4, 2015.
Abstract: Creating useful local context requires big data platforms and marketplaces. Contextual awareness is relevant to location based marketing, first responders, urban planners and many others. Location-aware mobile devices are revolutionizing how consumers and brands interact in the physical world. Situational awareness is a key element to efficiently handling any emergency response. In all cases, big data processing and high velocity streaming of location based data creates the richest contextual awareness. Data from many sources including IoT devices, sensor webs, surveillance and crowdsourcing are combined with semantically-rich urban and indoor data models. The resulting context information is delivered to and shared by mobile devices in connected and disconnected operations. Standards play a key role in establishing context platforms and marketplaces. Successful approaches will consolidate data from ubiquitous sensing technologies on a common space-time basis to enabled context-aware analysis of environmental and social dynamics.
This talk opened the geospatial track of the Apache Big Data conference. The geospatial track aimed to increase the benefits of implementing open source consistent with open geospatial standards.
After an introduction of the geospatial track this talk focused on these topics:
- Applications of Big Geo Data
- Geospatial Open Standards
- Big Geo Use Cases
- Open Source and Open Standards.
Geospatial Temporal Open Standards for Big Data from Space (BiDS2014)George Percivall
Presentation to ESA Big Data From Space (BiDS2014), November 2014.
Big data from space requires processing large amounts of data in a distributed environment. For efficient, quality and cost-effective deployment, these environments must be based on open standards. The Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) open standards for geospatial-temporal information have been tuned through implementations to meet the needs of big data.
Keynote presentation to New Zealand Geospatial Research Conference 2015. This presentation covered emerging topics for geospatial research in four areas:
- Spatial Representation: urban models, CityGML, indoor and DGGS
- New Data Sources: sensors everywhere, IoT, UAVs citizen observations, social media
- Computer Engineering: Big data, moving features, spatial analytics, mobile, 3D portrayal, augmented reality
- Application Areas: Soils Interoperability Experiment, Urban Climate Resilience in OGC Testbed 11.
This document summarizes key points from a presentation on the role of open standards in EarthCube. It discusses that EarthCube aims to transform geoscience research and data management over the next decade. It should utilize existing open agreements and standards, including open interfaces and encodings developed by organizations like OGC. EarthCube is taking an agile approach to development, engaging stakeholders and building iteratively. Existing projects and standards from other initiatives like GEOSS provide relevant examples for EarthCube to consider.
"The Golden Age of Geospatial Data Science and Engineering" presented as the inital lecture in the Geospatial Data Science Distinguished Speaker Series at the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. Series organized and presented by Professor Shaowen Wang, Head of the Geography and Geographic Information Science Department.
"Data Science is in a golden age. The mathematical foundations of Data Science, known for many years, are now seeing broad applicability due to engineering advances in cloud and big data computing and due to the explosive availability of data about nearly every aspect of human activity coming from mobile devices, remote sensing and the Internet of Things. Nearly all of this data has components of location and time leading to stunning advances in geospatial data science. Development of intelligent systems using knowledge models leading to insights and understanding have the potential to significantly transform geospatial data sciences. To achieve the fullest extent of their potential, these innovations require establishment of open consensus standards. This talk will review recent developments in innovations, standards, and applications of geospatial data science and engineering."

Analysis Ready Data workshop - OGC presentation George Percivall
The Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) has activities relevant to the workshop scope of "the current state-of-the-art in satellite data interoperability”. This presentation will focus on two main topics with the option to discuss other relevant topics that the participants may wish to discuss, e.g., WFS3. The two focus areas of development: 1) Geospatial Datacubes and 2) Earth Observation Exploitation Platforms. 1) A Geospatial Datacube provides access to and analytics on analysis ready data (ARD) organized with coordinate axes of space and time with cells in the cube containing data of geospatial features, e.g., imagery. OGC members implementing geospatial datacubes are documenting common practices to spur development and leading to the possibility to federated geospatial datacubes. 2) OGC is forming a Earth Observation Exploitation Platform Domain Working Group with the goal of defining a standards-based framework for cloud-based access to and analysis of EO data. An ad-hoc meeting was held in March 2018 to scope the working group with the results issued in a request for comment: http://www.opengeospatial.org/pressroom/pressreleases/2792
Project SLOPE aims to disseminate results from sustainable forest production widely among stakeholders. Work Package 8 focuses on dissemination, exploitation of results, and standardization contributions. Key activities include developing dissemination materials, maintaining a project website and using social media, organizing workshops and a final conference, contributing to standards, and establishing an industrial advisory board. Progress will be monitored through regular reporting templates.
Mapping the Tohoku 2011 Tsunami event with a remote sensing satellite constel...Peter Löwe
This document discusses how tsunami early warning systems could provide information to satellite operators to help speed up crisis mapping after disasters. It describes a project called TRIDEC that aims to integrate tsunami warnings with satellite tasking to allow imaging of affected areas sooner. During the 2011 Tohoku tsunami, satellite imagery through the International Charter helped create maps for rescue efforts. Faster coordination between warnings and satellite tasking could produce maps even sooner to further aid response. Standard messaging formats may help disseminate early warnings to satellite operators for quicker crisis mapping following disasters.

FME World Tour: The difficulties of a simple trail networkGIM_nv
This document discusses the challenges of aggregating recreational trail data from five provincial sources in Flanders into a single network. Each province had its own data model, IDs, and inconsistencies, making manual merging error-prone. VisitFlanders implemented an automated solution using FME Server to normalize, match IDs, validate topology, and generate delta files hourly from the source data. This improved data quality and ensured an up-to-date trail network for the whole region.
This document discusses four potions or methods for batch data processing large datasets: 1) Wildcards, 2) Batch Deploy, 3) Parent/Child Workspaces, and 4) Parent/Child Server Workspaces. Wildcards provide simple setup but have limitations. Batch Deploy scripts are also simple but have log and error handling issues. Parent/Child Workspaces separate transformations from workflows but can be slow. Parent/Child Server Workspaces leverage parallelism for speed but require data accessibility to server engines. In summary, each potion has tradeoffs; FME Server is recommended for robust automation.
