Subject: Fwd: [Tc] OGC announces Earth Observation Profile for Web-based Catalogue


Dear Colleagues,

FYI...

This is an important adoption of ebXML RegRep 3.0 specs within the geospatial community.
Work is also underway to have adoption of RegRep 4 within the OGC ebXML RegRep SWG as well,
though it is moving much slower than I had expected.

Wayland, Mass., 5 March 2010 - The Open Geospatial Consortium, Inc.
(OGC®) announces adoption and availability of the OGC Catalogue
Services Standard Extension Package for ebRIM Application Profile:
Earth Observation Products, and also the related Geography Markup
Language (GML) Application Schema for EO Products. Together, these
standards, when implemented, will enable more efficient data
publishing and discovery for a wide range of stakeholders who provide
and use data generated by satellite-borne and aerial radar, optical
and atmospheric sensors. The OASIS standard ebRIM (Electronic business
Registry Information Model) is the preferred cataloguing metamodel
foundation for application profiles of the OpenGIS Catalogue Service
Web (CS-W) Standard.

The CS-W ebRIM EO standard describes a set of interfaces, bindings and
encodings to be implemented in catalog servers so that data providers
can publish descriptive information (metadata) about Earth Observation
data. Developers can also implement this standard as part of Web
clients that will enable data users and their applications to very
efficiently search and exploit these collections of Earth Observation
data.

The CS-W ebRIM EO standard was developed based on requirements from
the European Space Agency and partners as part of the Heterogeneous
Missions Accessibility project. The Submission Team for this standard
included ERDAS, Spacebel s.a. and the European Space Agency. The
Geography Markup Language (GML) Application Schema for EO products was
developed by the European Space Agency, the French Space Agency, the
European Satellite Center, Spacebel s.a. and Spot Image.

The CS-W ebRIM EO standard and the GML Application Schema for EO
products are available at
http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/cat2eoext4ebrim.

The OGC® is an international consortium of more than 390
companies, government agencies, research organizations, and
universities participating in a consensus process to develop publicly
available geospatial standards. OpenGIS® Standards support
interoperable solutions that "geo-enable" the Web, wireless and
location-based services, and mainstream IT. OGC Standards empower
technology developers to make geospatial information and services
accessible and useful with any application that needs to be
geospatially enabled. Visit the OGC website at
