- Open discussion of OGC involvement in the W3C Geo activity and consideration of an updated ICS charter.
- Lead by Josh Lieberman
- What are information communities?
- Great answer! (see slides)
- How do communities interact?
- Need to find a semantic mapping between them...
- Geospatial Information Communities (GICs) have a lot in common?
- Are feature type catologues important?
- OWS4 Symbology and SLD discusion/update
- Raj Singh
- GeoSym Symbology
- http://www.opengeospatial.org/initiatives/?iid=87
- Symbology capabilities need defining in the service
- SLD to be split up and moved elsewhere
- SOAP protocol for WMS is funded as part of OWS4
- The distinction between WFS and WMS blurs!
2006-06-27
- GeoDRM Ad Hoc
- Graham Vowles
- creativecommons.org
- Rights Management is an electronic license for dynamic content
- Analogy with property access
- Private public commercial emergency access
- Why is there not open access to data?
- Institutional fears?
- Vested commercial interests?
- Open Digital Rights Language (ODRL) Initiative
- ISO TC 211
- John Herring
- UBGI
- INCITS-L1
- ISO/IEC 21000-5:2004
- Multimedia framework (MPEG-21) Rights Expression is advanced
- Engineering viewpoint
- Josh Lieberman
- OWS Services
- GeoDRM OWS Component Diagram
- This looks very useful...
- Still not sure how similar this is to shibboleth...
- Get Paul to have a look at this...
- Not sure they are thinking about (proxy) certificates
- Someone raised the work on Shiboleth and Internet2
- Geospatial constrasints on usage - how do these sit in the license and how are they applied?
- We can observe what is going on with the OWS4 GeoDRM wiki - Read access to OGC members
- Teleatlas road/traffic data people
- Cecil Goodwin
- We have to trust car manufacturers
- Very interesting use case
- Data continuously updated
- Public Key Incription and watermarking are main security mechanisms
- I wonder if data are archived for road accident analysis... I should try to talk to Cecil
- In GeoDRM users of the data can be charged with a duty to provide data back to data developers
- e.g. Sensors etc could return road and weather conditions, car performance etc
- What GeoDRM for the data returned?
- e.g. data can be used to improve road network not track my vehicle except in an emergency like when that vehicle is stolen... etc...
- 2006-06-27 09.00-12.00 and 13.00-15.00 "Domain Modelling" Agenda for GML WG
- The Agenda is
- Quick Roundup of scope of significant domain modelling exercises underway:
- Clemens Portele (reference to INSPIRE)
- Simon Cox (Observations and Measurements, OWS)
- Jeremy Tandy (UK Met Office/WMO)
- Andrew Woolf (NERC Data Grid/MarineXML)
- Anybody else who wishes to provide 2 slides - scope and issues encountered
- Round Tripping from GML to other encoding schemes.
- Model driven schema development: exploiting common patterns: "Processing Affordance" - an interface pattern for object behaviour
- Practicalities of mapping domain models to WFS services in operation systems
- Rob Atkinson
- Meta-Model
- Formalism of procedure of geogrphical modelling
- OWS 4 Architecture perspectives
- Discussion to identify other burning issues
- Identification of necessary actions (Problem solving time)

- http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc_home.php?wg_abbrev=regrep#overview
- Risk and Crisis Management (RCM) WG
- ORCHESTRA
- Thomas Usländer
- See Architecture WG on 2006-06-28
- White Paper

2006-06-28
- Architecture WG Agenda, Wednesday, June 28 0900-1200 (Presonfield Rm)
- Introducing the "SDI 1.0 Standards Suite"
- Doug Nebert, Carl Reed, Roland Wagner
- Global SDI
- What versions of what components
- Reference Model for the ORCHESTRA Architecture
- Pursuing best practices on the use of SOAP and WSDL in WxS specifications
- Carl Reed
- What should OGC do with SOAP and WSDL?
- REST Representational state transfer
- Simpler and less functional than SOAP
- http get post is restful? uses URIs/URLs
- Use SOAP for security in GeoDRM
- SOAP and WSDL can be used to carry extra information in standard ways
- Interplay with other software e.g. SAS
- GetWSDL() should provide the client for the WSDL service
- GetCapabilities? gives more than getWSDL() so can go one way, but not the other?
- OGC Motion
- Future revisions of OGC specifications for Web Services will have SOAP binding and support expression in WSDL

- URNs in OGC namespace
- GRID GIS Ad Hoc
- Intro by Allan Doyle
- Malcolm Atkinson
- eScience covers research in all disciplins and the crux is in fostering collaboration
- A grid is a system consiting of
- Distributed but connected resources and
- Software/hardware that provides and manages logically seamless access to those resources to meet specific objectives
- Higher Education Research Opportunities (HERO)
- Grid Interoperability Now
- Grid and Processing on Demand
- Wrappers, portlets, resource-orientation and OGC in Earth-Systems Science Grids
- Andrew Woolf
- Nice overview :)
- Major players agreed 2006-04 on web service resource frameworks :)

- Data Access Integration Services
- Niel Che-Hong
- Global Grid Forum is now Open Grid Forum
- Job Submission Description Language (JSDL)

- Major overlaps with what else is going on
- What is its mandate?
- Data Security
- Web Services
- What work is to be done?
- Chris Higgins will act as coordination
