Innovation requires testing and failing. Thomas Edison was right when he said "I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work". For innovation and improvement of standards to happen, service Architectures have to be tested and tested. Within the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC), testing of service architectures has occurred for the last 15 years. This talk will present an evolution of these service architectures and a possible future path.
CyberGIS Architectures for Collaborative Problem Solving - OGC perspectiveGeorge Percivall
1. What is CyberGIS:
- collaboration; open data, open source, open standards
2. The plumbing for CyberGIS collaboration is available:
- Processing, Workflow, Model interoperability as web services are “solved” several times;
- the concepts for collaboration need to be made explicit
3. Need for “decision” and “hypothesis” objects including modeling and linked data
- Ontology for decision types. Templates for Decisions and Hypothesis
- Recommender systems - a guess at the riddle
- If I see these conditions then consider this decision template
- If I am researching these conditions then consider this hypothesis

ABSTRACT BODY: EarthCube is an NSF initiative that will enable sharing of data in an open and transparent manner, improving access and use of data, allowing scientists to better understand the Earth. EarthCube is based on a network of enthusiasts willing to make the sharing of data a reality. But is just having open data enough? Open data will not accelerate the process a scientist team needs to go through to understand, reformat and use the data. However, agreements among colleagues or adoption of agreements can make a big difference. These agreements also need to be published, freely available, and unpolluted from intellectual property rights issues. The system design requirements to develop cyberinfrastructure for Geosciences need to take into account these open agreements, including open interfaces and open encodings. Once open agreements are in place, it is essential to have in place policy and procedures, and a governance body for maintaining those agreements. This presentation will explore these issues and suggest ways the standard development organizations, like the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC), and other coordinating organizations, such as the Earth Science Information Partners (ESIP) and the Research Data Alliance (RDA), could be involved in this process.

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.
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.

Innovation in Geospatial Technology and StandardsGeorge Percivall
All predictions are wrong; some are useful. This presentation offers a slate of geospatial trends developed in discussion with the OGC Board of Directors and expanded in an OGC blog series. These geospatial technology issues were developed by reviewing over 200 articles from geospatial publications as well as from information technology journals (IEEE, ACM, etc.).
These "Ripe Issues" of geospatial technology identify areas where further development of open standards can lead to great benefit:
* The Power of Location
* Internet of Things
* Mobile Development
* Indoor Frontier
* Cartographers of the future
* Big Processing of GeoData
* Smart Cities
The OGC is an international consortium where members participate in a consensus process to develop publicly available geospatial standards. OGC has a history of developing anticipatory standards. OGC is a leader in achieving a consensus balanced with innovation where OGC members actively designing the standard while implementing running software. In the role of OGC Chief Engineer, George Percivall identifies technology and market trends relevant to open standards development.
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 to for the ISPRS Congress 2012, Melbourne
Over the last decade, standards have played a key role in the expansion of the market for Earth Observation (EO) products and services. Standards become increasingly important as geospatial technologies and markets continue to evolve in an increasingly complex technology ecosystem. OGC and ISPRS work jointly to further the development of this vital information industry.
We continue to see global growth in the supply of geometrically controlled image-based geodata. On the data supplier side, most end-use EO information products use data from multiple EO sources (aerial and satellite) as well as from ground-based sources. On the customer side, customers’ business models involving EO data require easy connections between multiple data suppliers and multiple technology platforms. Typically, new markets create stovepiped, proprietary solutions that persist until market forces create demand for standards that in turn enhance market opportunity. The OGC’s standards meet this demand in the geospatial markets.
OGC leads worldwide in the creation and establishment of standards that allow geospatial content and services to be seamlessly integrated into business and civic processes, the spatial web and enterprise computing. OGC accelerates market assimilation of interoperability research through collaborative consortium processes.
OGC has both domain focused and technology focused activities. For example, the Meteorology & Oceanography Domain Working Group ensures that OGC standards and profiles allow the meteorological community to develop effective interoperability for web services and content across the wider geospatial domain. These needs are met for example by the technology of standards such as netCDF which was brought into the OGC to encourage broader international use and greater interoperability among clients and servers interchanging data in binary form.
Most OGC standards specify open interfaces or encodings that apply to imagery. Some of these are:
o Web Coverage Service (WCS)
o Web Coverage Processing Service (WCPS)
o Web Map Service (WMS)
o Geography Markup Language (GML)
o GML in JPEG 2000 Encoding
o OGC Network Common Data Form (NetCDF)
o Sensor Observation Service (SOS)
o Sensor Planning Service (SPS)
o Sensor Model Language Encoding Standard (SensorML).
o Catalogue Service for the WEB (CSW)
Raj Singh talks about the history of OGC standards such as Sensor Web Enablement Suite -- Sensor Planning Service, Sensor Observation Service, SensorML, Observation & Measurements -- and its IoT companion -- SWEforIoT, and how the geospatial industry is uniquely positioned to take leadership in the emerging Internet of Things space.
This presentation has been prepared with the objective to give readers a quick introduction to the Open Source GeoNode platform and its functionalities for the creation of a Spatial Data Infrastructure completely based on open Source components.

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.

M4M 2 the Rescue of M2M (Eclipse DemoCamp Trondheim)Werner Keil
M4M or Measure 4 Measure, ever since Shakespeare's play with the same name we know, people can be mistaken for one another. A Duke (like the beloved Java mascot) claims to be a monk, the head of a dead pirate is presented to be that of the young hero. So can important information like Units of Measurement be misinterpreted. While humans reading 10°C, 10 C or 10 Degree Celsius, each of those could be interpreted and understood well enough. For M2M communication, unless a program is provided with a large glossary of alternate terms, only ONE of these would be acceptable.
This is where the Unified Code for Units of Measurement (UCUM) among similar approaches like UnitsML, SensorML or a few others are vital for error-free M2M transactions, not just between sensors or measurement devices, but also and especially vehicles or distributed devices.
OSGi Measurement has been around for some time (R3) but never gained as much momentum, as many other bundles of OSGi did. Except for very few use cases in the Embedded or Automotive sector it is practically unused and based on statements by its contributors in the OSGi Alliance to be considered legacy with no plans continue development.
After a brief overview of common M2M errors from Gimli to Mars, This session provides an overview of OSGi Measurement, Eclipse OUMo, what they have in common and where the differences lie. Although most of today's OSGi containers are capable of dealing with units or measurement better and more reliable with UOMo, both can where necessary also exchange information and collaborate. E.g. if legacy devices and code cannot be easily replaced. For this We'll take a look at interoperability between different systems or with other unit technologies and languages like F#, Fantom, Python or Lua.

Using Blockchain in Geospatial ApplicationsLuis Bermudez
Blockchain is a digital decentralized registry of electronic transactions that are secure and verifiable. The technology is used to record cryptocurrency transactions (e.g. Bitcoin) and smart contracts as well as others; however, very little has been documented about how blockchain can be used in the context of geospatial applications. This presentation will discuss use free open geospatial standards in blockchain.
Setting up and testing NSG and DGIWG Profiles Luis Bermudez
Open Interfaces are crucial to ensure interoperability of GEOINT systems interchanging geospatial information vector data and imager Open interfaces are defined by the Open Geospatial Consortium OGC with open standards such as Web Map Service WMS and Web Feature Service WFS The National System for Geospatial intelligence NSG has taken OGC Standards and has adopted them for the GEOINT community. This tutorial will provide an Introduction about how to setup GEOINT profiles, using reference implementations ,and various mechanism to test these profiles using OGC validation tools Web Validation or locally via a Docker container.
Geospatial Data and Key Characteristics of Geospatial Data Analysis and ScienceLuis Bermudez
The growing complexity and interdisciplinarity of research and applied science questions requires the developments of standards to exchange data within continuously growing communities as well as across domains. In most domains, geo-spatial data is the fundamental base layer for data science and analysis, as the vast majority have some spatial characteristics or apply to elements in space. Using the available standards, a good level of interoperability can already be realized. Nevertheless, the increasing complexity of research questions, the growing number of available data, and the increasing range of data providers, ranging from citizen scientists to fully automated sensor networks making their data directly available at the Internet, require even richer models that need to be developed to enhance the level of interoperability.
Validation of services, data and metadataLuis Bermudez
Now days organizations are making available data (e.g. vector data, rasters) via web services, that follow open standards and are easier to integrate with other data. Validation of these services is important to guarantee that clients (e.g. web portals, mobile applications) can properly discover and download the data that a user needs. Validation can also serve as curation process to improve discovery on registries [1][2] or for certification purposes [3]. This session will provide an overview and a demo of the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) Validation tools. The participants will understand how to invoke a test and install the tools in their own environment. The validation tools are used to test servers, data and clients. The tests can be customized to not only test implementations against OGC standards but also community profiles. The validation engine and the tests are available as open source in GitHub.

The workshop will provide resources and tools that are required to understand the importance and verification of OGC Compliance. Topics include:
- Benefits of acquiring OGC compliant products, as opposed to products that implement OGC standards but have not been certified as being OGC compliant
- Guidance regarding language to use in specifying requirements for OGC compliant products in software acquisition (procurement) documents
- Verification process to access that a product is compliant
- Overview of the testing and compliance procedure
- Testing community profiles
GDG Cloud Southlake #33: Boule & Rebala: Effective AppSec in SDLC using Deplo...James Anderson
Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
