OGC IP Initiatives • Reduce technology risk through accelerating development, testing and acceptance of interoperability standards with the refinement of standards and best practices • Expand the market and improve choice by encouraging industry adoption of new standards and best practices, ensuring market availability of interoperable solutions • Mobilize new technologies through providing participants with real world experience and a platform to innovate while driving early adoption of standards • Provide cost effective method for sponsors and participants to share expertise and development while gaining early marketplace insight and advantage

Web Mapping Testbed in 1999 Created the Web Map Service (WMS) Today we have thousands of articles related to WMS Today hundreds of thousands of layers are available

Benefits to Sponsors Confidence and advancement of solutions New tools Influence technology Lead new standards Get early insights from experts Leverage investment (cost sharing/ pool of sponsors)

Benefits to participants Position themselves in the global marketplace Interact with sponsors and technical experts Get funded Participant X did Y work Improve their solution Increase Business Opportunity to market company and solutions

Initiative phases Identify pool of sponsors Team formation Concept development Call for Participation Execution Demonstration and outreach

Example Recent Pilots • Aviation Pilot produced proven standards that are now operational in civilian aeronautical information management systems. • Empire Challenge Pilot enabled sharing of sensor data in the defense and intelligence domain based on the OGC Sensor Web Enablement standards. • GEOSS Architecture Implementation Pilots defined the architecture for the Group on Earth Observations tested through an initial operating capability. • Arctic Data Pilot demonstrating the diversity, richness and value of a Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) to Arctic stakeholders. • Future City Pilot demonstrated how use of City. GML and IFC together to enhance financial, environmental, and social outcomes for citizens living in cities.

Maritime Limits and Boundaries Pilot Support these two goals: 1. have an open, international, coordinate-based, representation of maritime boundaries and their associated rights, restrictions, and responsibilities (RRRs) that are authoritative and easy to interpret. 2. is to facilitate the deposit of maritime boundary claims with the Division for Ocean Affairs and the Law of the Sea (DOALOS) in a spatial coordinate-based format that fulfils legal requirements under UNCLOS.

Tasks • R 1: Develop GIS Implementation: Verify and test the S 121 model in several GIS systems • R 2: Develop Universal Exchange Format: GML based exchange format to allow for the exchange of S-121 data within nations and between nations • R 3: Implement Legal Dissemination Format: human readable and machine readable format, suitable for submission to DOALOS • R 4: Develop Additional Administrative Layer Format: GML format to allow for the overlay of MLBs information over: an E-NAV charts in alignment with the AML “Additional Military Layer” principles, ECDIS systems and others.

Tasks • R 5: Develop Data Display Format: Show portrayal of data can be achieved from different countries with a common set of symbols. Allow the navigation and display of all key component of the model being (Party, Rights. Restriction. Responsibilities, Basic. Administrative. Unit, Feature. Unit/Spatial Attribute, and the Sources and Governance features). • R 6: Support The Extension of S-121 to Generic Objects: Accommodate State specific objects and extension objects such as UNCLOS Article 74. 3 (Joint Development Areas) • R 7: Provide Engineering Report: to inform the S-121 community about best practices, proposed solutions and guidance.
