Collaborative Development of Open Standards for Expanding GeoWeb to the Internet of Things

“Expanding GeoWeb to an Internet of Things”

A workshop during COM.Geo 2011 23-25 May 2011, Washington DC George Percivall Open Geospatial Consortium © 2011 Open Geospatial Consortium, Inc.

Open Standards for Expanding GeoWeb to IoT

• IoT: multi-technology, multi-vendor environment – Limited deployment without open, consensus standards – Build on multiple standards: ITU, ETSI, OMA, OGC, others.

– OGC standards for location, spatial models, sensor webs • Collaborative development key to consensus adoption and wide use of information technology standards.

– Adaptive to rapidly changing developments in the marketplace. – Sound engineering foundation and select existing technology.

• OGC testbed process proven for collaborative development

What is the OGC?

Open Geospatial Consortium, Inc. (OGC)

Not-for-profit, international voluntary consensus standards organization

Founded in 1994, Incorporated in US, UK, Australia

415 industry, government, research and university members OGC Mission

To lead in the development, promotion and harmonization of open geospatial standards …

OGC Interoperability Program

Proven process to rapidly develop, test, validate and demonstrate new standards

based on real world use cases identified by OGC members • Effective way for members to

quickly align industry to advance standards to meet priority needs

Efficient and competitive process

, regularly yielding a high-level of industry participation and cooperation •

Repeatable process

– over 30 initiatives successfully conducted using proven policies and procedure

OGC ®

OGC works with many Standards Development Organizations • • • • • • • • • • International Organization for Standards (ISO) World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) Digital Geospatial Information Working Group (DGIWG) Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) Open Mobile Alliance (OMA) Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) buildingSMART International / Alliance (bSi / bSa) IEEE Technical Committee 9 (Sensor Web) Web3D Consortium And others

Potential Standards areas for Geo-IoT

• Build on IoT standards work: ITU, ETSI, OMA, others.

• OGC standards applicability – Quality location and orientation – Spatial Models for ranges of spaces – Accuracy of semantic relevance – Sensor Web Enablement • Identify additional specs needed and develop through testbed-based development – Running code wins

Steps for advancing GeoWeb onto IoT

• Define a standards-based “GeoWeb meets IoT” Framework to spur coordinated application development. • OGC Specification Working Groups review of Framework to identify if additional standards are needed. • Coordination of standards for location, space and time in IoT with other standards development organizations.

• Conduct “IoT Testbed” using the OGC Interoperability Program approach
