Accomplishments
• Interoperability experiments with WCS
client and server implementations at
numerous sites (status reports on
GALEON wiki and OGC portal)
• Several recommendations for changes to
WCS specification (formal documents on
OGC portal)
• Initiatives underway for GML applications
profiles for explicit netCDF semantics
(ncML-GML, CSML)
• Dialog initiated with GMLJP2 group to
determine applicability to netCDF datasets2
Plans for Phase 2
• For continued experimentation with WCS
implementation, use GALEON OGCnetwork
– Additional client & implementations
– New datasets
• For WCS and GML specifications, continue
as OGC GALEON Interoperability
Experiment
• Collaborate closely with:
– OGC GEOSS Services Network (GSN)
– GMLJP2

Primary OGC Interface Issues
• NetCDF as a sixth WCS encoding format OR
• Develop netCDF application profile
AND
• Do away with fixed list of encoding formats
• Develop WCS application profile for netCDF
• Develop GML application schemas for
netCDF semantics (ncML-GML, CSML,
GMLJP2?)
