Part 1: Application Deployment and Testing
Step 0: Application Package generation
Package
identify the Application to which it refers (application name, version,
description, author, link to documentation, )
describe the input data (e.g. Sentinel-2 MSI L1C and Landsat-8 OLI L1T, as an
OpenSearch description reference)
describe additional input parameters (e.g. variables for its algorithm, can be
boolean, strings, integers, ) Package
describe the output (e.g. output files, link to description of the format,
App
processing log files, output error codes, OpenSearch products links, )
App
describe the required execution environment for the application (OS
requirements, HW requirements, )
identify how to deploy and launch the application (software to be
executed, execution static DAG, parallelization, execution cmdline, )

Description: processing workflow using SNAP and Orpheo Toolbox
(OTB)
Author: VTT License: OSS
Input data: N images from Sentinel 2 MSI L1C:
http://fedeo.esa.int/opensearch/description.xml?uid=IPT:S2MSI1C or
http://fedeo.esa.int/opensearch/description.xml?uid=AWS:S2MSI1C
Input auxiliary data: reference data matching EO data
Input parameters: EPSG reference code, target resolution
Output: GeoTIFF file, processing logs (stdout, stderr), error code
App
OS: Linux (CentOS 6) Hardware req: medium CPU, big disk

DAG: SNAP processing -> Orpheo Toolbox processing
Deployment and execution:
- Step 1: SNAP, can be run in parallel for each input_file
- Step 2: Orpheo Toolbox, cannot be parallelized
Security: software package signatures
Software:
- SNAP software package
S
- Orpheo Toolbox software package

1. Authentication(userCredentials)
3. upload (package)
IdP+STS is only one possible authentication method (the one considered in the
testbed), approach for the upload and other web API authentication shall be modular
Software packages are big and hard to manage (e.g. include dependencies, setup
scripts, security updates, etc) and there are already many repository
technology/standards (Docker, RPM, APT). We do not want to reinvent the wheel!.
TB can link software packages on external repositories (e.g. DockerHub). You will need
anyway to sign them to avoid tampering.
Step 6: Data Discovery
ESA will provide in-kind the FedEO Catalogue and its GeoJSON OpenSearch
interface, which allows to search for EO data on multiple cloud providers (providing
also data location information, e.g. which cloud provider hosts the given data)
Additionally, CNR will provide in-kind the DAB catalogue, with the same
GeoJSON OpenSearch interface, which allows to search for EO data on multiple
cloud providers (via FedEO) and additional non-EO data

A quote is required to get idea on the processing costs. It can be in terms of

credits or resources
The deployment & run step may not be a standard, but dependent on the cloud
provider IaaS interface standards or internal cluster management protocols
Part 2: Historical Data Generation
1. User select an Algorithm (deployed on part 1)
2. User selects a processing window parameters, as:
Start time -> stop time
N days shifting window
N days shift
3. User selects execution parameters of the Algorithm, as:
Input products selection rules, e.g.:
AOI: Romania
Cloud coverage < 10%
Cumulative time coverage: all available data
Algorithm processing parameters
4. User runs a Bulk Windowed execution (multiple windows are launched
in parallel)
5. User is notified at the end of the processing and can access the status
of the different processing windows
Part 3: Continuous Weekly Data Generation
As per Part 2, with the following differences:
Frequency (each week on Tuesday) and shifting window relative to
execution date (e.g. execution day -8 to execution day -2)
User are notified upon each window execution completion
Processing is repeated until manually disabled
Part 4: Accounting & Billing (Optional)
Summary and future directions
TB 13 KO will be in Reston on 4-6 April 2017
OGCs role is vital, ESA is:

Sponsoring TB13 (in a new way)
Seeking consensus on an update of the Open
Search, in coordination with CEOS WGISS
Open to other forms of collaboration and
cooperation that are mutually beneficial

OGC standards documentations reflection
OGC standards documentations critics:
Complexity of reports scares developers away:

No clear descriptions
Examples clarify content but no consistency in examples
Lots of links / references to other documents
The most common response =

A lot of information and very detailed,
but what do you really mean, what do you say?
Complex standards model does not lead to ONLY the solution
The standards are very specific and

Every aspect is valuable
complete
Complex models Long documentation
Time consuming to master the standards
Solution:
1. Use the existing standards in one complete model
2. Create minimised profiles to simplify the implementation

Description
We all use different data (encodings) and we need to publish these in

services or have them available in many different environments. There
are encoding types (imagery, video, Audio, etc.) that oblige us to have
specific software and platforms to be used, reducing the flux of
information and creating bottlenecks to usage.
There is a need for accessing the information no matter the service

type (map, feature, coverage, etc.) or environment. We need the
information derived by services to be directly re-usable. We need
services as information.
Active/Passive objects that can be streamed with a mechanism that is

able to react considering the status and the object behavior

OGC
Proposal
At this point we have a structure composed of an OWS

Context xml file referencing a CIS xml file and data (which
may be embedded to form only a single file). When all of the
data has the same href to the same structured CIS
description (raster and features, etc.) we have a descriptor
enabling the transport to the servers of any data type.
OGC
Proposal
We should have a W*S in which the coverages and features

are served as objects and the user application can
distinguish the type and format and process or manage those
objects appropriately. This should lead to the possibility of
having a REQUEST to a W*S which returns the objects in a
given time/space range and the GET of the object activates
at the server level the retrieval of the information in its
original format (raster, features, doc, etc.).
The above based on OWS Context, CIS, SWE,
GMLJP2,etc..
OGC
Proposal
COMC could be encapsulated in an EXI, or any other transport

mechanism, as a message body. This approach also allows the user to
save views of the operational scenario in the form of a message for
storing in a Web Streaming Service (WSS).
The streaming of messages and objects could be made through any
transport mechanism and could be managed by WSS / CIS combinations
implementing a message management system.

23 March 2017

InfraGML
InfraGML marks a significant, pragmatic realization in the

often idealized integration of GIS/CAD/BIM
Based on the LandInfra Conceptual Model developed by
OGC with buildingSMART International
Builds upon and extends GML3.2 and 3.3 foundation for
features, data types, spatial schema, coordinate and linear
referencing, and observation and measurement
Provides a framework for addressing the full facility life cycle
Capitalizes on the numerous extensions to the OGC
baseline that have been added since GIS Simple Features
Parallels extensions by bSI beyond just buildings

Land and Infrastructure (LandInfra)
Land and Infrastructure Conceptual Model Standard

(LandInfra)
Its all about the land upon which infrastructure facilities are built
and the infrastructure facility improvements themselves
including the surveying necessary for the construction and
recording of the facilities and land interests
use case driven subset of LandXML functionality, but
supported by a UML (Unified Modeling Language)
conceptual model
LandInfra is a Conceptual Model, specified as an approved
OGC Standard (OGC 15-111r1), independent of
implementations but whose target is encoding standards
InfraGML is one of those LandInfra encodings

Part 7
LandDivision RC
LandInfra addresses land development in the context of

activities concerning civil engineering infrastructure
facilities. The focus is therefore on determining and
surveying of boundaries and the legal and administrative
concepts needed to define the bordered entities.
It does not include land recording and database storage,
including interoperability of national recordings, and
trans-national recording exchanges, but it does include
interchange of survey plan data in terms of documents
which are to be lodged at national recording agencies.
LandDivisions are public (political, judicial, executive) or
private in nature, modelled as AdministrativeDivisions or
InterestsInLand, respectively

OGC
LandDivision RC
An InterestInLand is ownership or security towards real
property:
PropertyUnit is a unit of ownership in land (one or more
LandParcels)
Easements grant the right to a certain use, e.g. right of way, as
specified by EasementType, across one or more servient
LandParcels
LandParcel is a single, contiguous area of land, possibly
with water
A Statement documents the establishment or acquisition
of an InterestInLand or a SurveyMonument
A SurveyMonument is a physical object, the location of
which is stable and by its form defines a point on the
surface of the Earth

OGC
LandDivision RC
SuperficieObject comprises a building or other
construction, including pipes, cables or tunnels,
established and owned by a party (other than the owner
of the LandParcels on which the superficie object is
constructed)
SpatialUnit:
Contiguous 2D, 3D, or liminal geometric entity, delimited
and located on or close to the surface of the Earth through
its BoundingElements.
Specifies the shape and location of a LandParcel,
Easement, or AdministrativeDivision.
Adapts Abstract Spec Topic 1 (ISO 19107) geometry types
to land division requirements.
LandDivision is dependent upon the LandInfra core

Part 7
Condominium RC
A CondominiumUnit is concurrent ownership of real

portions.
A CondominiumScheme is a Statement which specifies
the BuildingPart subdivision of multi-storage
CondominiumBuildings into CondominiumUnits, and
records the LandParcels on which the
CondominiumBuildings rest
Condominium is dependent upon LandDivision

Context / Agenda for standard revision
Reconvened TimeSeriesML SWG at 101st OGC TC in Taichung,

Taiwan December 4, 2016
Unanimous approval of proposed changes by TimeSeriesML SWG in

Taichung
Created Pending Document for OAB review (titled: 15-042r4-

TimeseriesML1.1.zip) located here:
https://portal.opengeospatial.org/files/?artifact_id=72701
Through unique testing with a NWS use case, a new iteration of a valid
time representation used to span a length of time (in addition to an
instantaneous time) was added. A link to the OGC Presentation
describing this proposed TimeSeriesML change is here:


Context / Agenda (cont)
(Whats the benefit of this change?)
This change allows the encoding of a list of Time Periods,

which contain both a Start Time and End Time
(dateTimes), under gml:domainSet. Previously in the
TimeseriesML, only a list of instantaneous Time Positions
(denoted only by single times) could be encoded.
It is primarily done to bound a parameters multiple valid

times that span ranges of time. For example, a single
Maximum Temperature value that is valid from 12Z to 00Z
on the first day, 12Z to 00Z on the second day, and
repeating (see example of XML Instance below).

Proposed DWG

Community challenges
Mission planning there is no single format for exchange of mission planning

data that can be transferred to different equipment,
Operations how does the device communicate its position and orientation;
how does it Get home; what sensors help guide the device?
Data acquisition how does data get tagged with metadata; what formats are
supported; is data transmitted during collection?
Data exchange imagery may be stored just a few common formats (JPEG,
GeoTIFF, various raw formats, etc.), but given the fact that many observations
might be highly oblique, what requirements need to be inserted into metadata
standards?
Data processing Mosaicking/compilation of data from multiple acquisition
paths with the resulting resolution and precision considerations. Handling of
temporal artifacts (temperature, sunlight, haze, etc.) to provide data
consistency across subsequent revisits.
Archival data formats - Interoperable formats that allow for easy replay of
missions and re-purposing of data for additional uses.

Key activities
Discuss and identify primary UXS use cases that would benefit from
OGC standards.
Identify UXS domain requirements for inclusion in existing or new OGC
standards.
Identify other practice areas in the OGC that support or could be
influenced by UXS technology.
Identify UXS-related use cases and workflows for Interoperability
Experiments or Testbeds.
Outreach to and organization of OGC members as well as external
organizations to contribute to the DWG.
Describe the landscape of UXS operations and missions and identify
the raw and derived data acquired by these systems.

Business goals
Improve interoperability of systems and data;

Lower the cost of deploying UXS technology in any
application space through the use of standards to increase
operational efficiency;
Remove barriers to entry for new technology into the UXS
domain; and
Facilitate the regulatory approval process to streamline
adoption.

Revision to TC Policies and

Procedures
Scott Simmons
23 March 2017

TC Policies and Procedures revision
Tight coupling of PnP and TC Policy Directives

Clarification of OAB position in the Consortium
Refinement of Subcommittee rules
Revised policy for Retirement, Deprecation, or
Rescindment of OGC standards
New policy for moving a profile from a Best Practice to a
standard
Must be a profile of a single approved standard
Streamlines the approval process slightly no presentation to TC to
ask for a vote is required, but approval vote is the same as for a
standard
Elimination of the Technical Amendment process
Standards will be revised per the revision process


Subcommittees
Now need a charter that is approved by the TC and PC

Retirement, Deprecation, or Rescindment of
OGC standards
No change to retirement
Deprecation is clarified
Must be specifically requested during the vote for a revision to that standard
Deprecation of a standard automatically deprecates all extensions specific
to that EXACT version of the standard
Rescindment is added rescindment occurs if:
The standard includes intellectual property that was illegally provided as
part of the standard;
A Community standard is abandoned by its originating/maintaining party
and the OGC membership does not take-over maintenance of that
Community standard; or
A Community standard is judged by OGC membership to no longer be
applicable to the OGC Mission
Retirement, Deprecation, or Rescindment al require electronic vote

Moving a Best Practice to a standard
Applies only to a Best Practice which is a profile of a single,

current (i.e., non-deprecated) OGC standard
Allows the SWG for the referenced standard to submit the
Best Practice to the standard approval process (OAB
review, public comment, TC/PC approval votes)
Presentation of the original Best Practice will suffice for a
TC presentation

Elimination of Technical Amendment
Technical Amendment allowed a standard to be revised

without a period of public comment
All revisions will now require a public comment period

Other changes
Reorganization of some sections and addition of clarifying

text
More linear description of standards adoption process

TC PnP request for electronic vote
The TC Chair recommends that the OGC Technical

Committee approve an electronic vote to approve release
of OGC 05-020r25 Technical Committee Policies and
Procedures as an OGC Policy.

Feature Level Data Quality in Conflated Datasets

Datasets are often provided to users as the best possible representation

of the real world.
However, modern datasets are comprised of data from a multitude of
sources of variable quality and appropriate use.
Helyx have undertaken work to understand and communicate how data
quality can vary across conflated datasets in a variety of use cases with
data quality tests influenced by well-known standards and exposed via a
WPS.
The quality variation is described by metadata tightly coupled to the
features and displayed through a standard GIS package.

Alaitz Zabala, Universitat Autnoma de Barcelona
Testbed-12 Imagery Quality and Accuracy ER

This ER deals with completeness, logical consistency, positional

accuracy, temporal accuracy and thematic accuracy issues to improve
quality description in the metadata for imagery.
Based on ISO 19157, UncertML and QualityML standardized measures,
this ER describes how to encode quality measures in order to allow
datasets comparison.
Moreover, description of pixel-level quality measures is also included.
Finally, alternatives to communicate tile level quality as well as mosaic
products quality are proposed.

Tom Spencer, PSMA Australia
Reducing Consumer Uncertainty in Spatial Data

Products Through Linked Vocabularies
Overview of Cooperative Research Centre for Spatial Information

(CRCSI) research into Reducing Consumer Uncertainty.
The focus of this project is to determine how the research intends to
understand the current gap in how suppliers and consumers
communicate understanding in spatial data quality
Also to consider how through the definition of semantic ontologies or
vocabularies, this gap can be bridged enabling the consumer to have
increased confidence in the fitness for purpose of a spatial data product.

Lance McKee
23 March 2017

EM Spectrum DWG Agenda
1. Brief discussion of IEEE 1900.6s new standards project,

IEEE P1900.6b.
2. Overview of OpenSSRF open source EMF data model
3. Discussion of possible applications in:
Cognitive radio
Mitigating interference with Earth Observation satellite communications
IoT device identification (and perhaps device security and privacy
Orientation of semiconductor devices to indoor and outdoor spatial
coordinate reference systems
Electromagnetic fields' physical effects on molecules, nanoparticles and
biological structures
4. Where do we go from here? What are the clearest and

most urgent requirements?

OGC
Issues
IEEE, ITU and perhaps other SDOs have standards for

radio communication. However, with rapid proliferation of
electromagnetic field (EMF) emitters and sensors; growing
demand for limited spectrum; interference issues in Earth
Observation and near-field remote sensing; and the need
for cognitive radio solutions to these problems, it is
important for all EMF standards to share a location model.
Growing credible evidence of health risks from EMF is
leading to growing official concern about exposure levels. If
the bioelectromagnetics research community adopts a
common EMF data model, its location model should
conform to the location model in other EMF standards.

Actions
Jaci Knudsen (DISA) and Chuck Heazel will review the

OpenSSRF location data model, compare it to the location
data model of the IEEE 1900.6 standards, and review
harmonization possibilities.
Lance McKee will report this to his contacts at ITU.
Joan Mas and Lance McKee will collaborate on an article
for IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Magazine.
Lance McKee will continue to try to persuade the
bioelectromagnetics community of their need for a common
EMF data model. Such a standards activity would probably
not take place in OGC. However, that standard would
include the OGC-based location data model.

Agreed change to DWG charter text
http://www.opengeospatial.org/projects/groups/landadmin
Text to be added to charter section 4.2, new bullet 2:
Examination of the (future) needs within the land

administration system landscape, including the following items:
i. 3D Cadastre (and integration with 2D Cadastre);
ii. Spatial development workflow and link to topography: CityGML,
LandXML, InfraGML, IndoorGML. PipelineML, BIM/IFC, etc.;
iii. LADM legal refinement (and move current informative to
normative part);
iv. Possible valuation/ taxation extension of the current LADM
scope; and
v. Inclusion and attention for (inter)national marine Cadastre.
In line with planned revision of LADM within ISO TC211
OGC
Issues
Potential extension scope of conceptual model (revision ISO 19152)
Fiscal/valuation extension module
More explicit semantics of code list values (e.g. use SKOS)
Further modelling LADMs rights, restrictions, responsibilities (RRRs)
Further modelling of LADM's survey and spatial representation
SDG Indicators (aggregated values at different levels)
3D/4D Cadastre
Spatial planning/zoning with legal implications
LADM in support to Marine Cadastre (esp. coastal zones)
More explicit relations with Building Information Modelling (BIM)
Other legal spaces: mining, archaeology, utilities,
Profiles, application schema & encodings (for schema and data):
Existing xxxMLs: CityGML, IndoorGML, InfraLand (InfraGML), LandXML
Own/new LA xxxML (LAML), (Geo)BIM/IFC, INTERLIS, Linked data (RDF),
GeoJSON
Process & workflow standardization
Initial registration, transactions (Blockchain, ISO TC307), info delivery

OGC
Issues
Besides standardization also implementations of the (new, extended)

standards are needed, esp. to support developing countries
Possible joint ISO/OGC LADM standard: there are examples of other

standards originating from ISO later became joint (land cover), needs
further exploration
FIG should wait with submitting NWIP to ISO TC211, until procedure is
clear. To be discussed in Helsinki during next FIG WW (27 may 2
june 2017)
Resolve confusion between LADM (land administration domain model)

and STDM (social tenure domain model) STDM (social tenure
domain method)

1st week of march, ECMWF has organised a Open Data

Week composed of
Workshop on improving the socio-economic impact of
NWP data
16th Workshop on Meteorological Operational Systems
(MOS)
Hackathon : #OpenDataHack @ECMWF - Beyond
weather: explore creative uses of open data
=> http://www.ecmwf.int/en/learning/workshops/open-data-
week-at-ecmwf

ECMWF hackathon J. Wagemann
Aim : raising awareness of freely available data from

ECMWF and the three Copernicus services
Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S),
Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS)
Copernicus Emergency Management Service (CEMS).
Other open data made available from Reading buses and Snowflake
software
70 developers and scientists ,
20 teams , judging panel
4 winners
Accident and break-down prediction for Reading buses
HydroNext: hydroelectric projections
Water Disease Protection System
African Animal Migration

Some hackathon conclusions
Publishing of vast amounts of open data is not

enough and requires Innovative data access and
discovery systems
Open weather and climate data is of benefit most in

combination with other open data sources

ECMWF public datasets :
http://apps.ecmwf.int/datasets/ M. Manoussakis
Access to public datasets in two ways:

Via a Web User Interface (Web UI)
Via a programmatic way (Web API)
Web UI can be used to generate the

python request to be used via
programmatic
Asynchroneous delivery
Still going towards simplification,

compliance, efficiency, opening to other
disciplines

Quality Model; Iain Burnell; DSTL

Highlights
Spatineo IPR announced: specific method/device for

varying the test request BBOX using generic algorithm is
protected by a patent.
No conflicts with the OGC work foreseen
Main tasks for the WG in 2017:
Collect a list of common QoS & QoE terms and concepts.
Draft an initial list of meaningful QoS metrics for Spatial Data
Services.
Develop data model with an XML Schema for publishing QoS
information for OWS using extended capabilities.
Eventually to be an OGC Best Practice for declaring the QoS information
using the Extended Capabilities, including the QoS statements.
Guidance for evaluating and improving the quality of experience of
OGC Web Services.
To be published as OGC Discussion paper / Best Practice


Actions
Query for the OGC members:

Which metrics are currently used for measuring the QoS of Spatial
Data Services? Are they useful? Which metrics would be better in
particular use cases?
Create a synthesis, prioritize the metrics and formal definitions for
the best metrics.

Issues
We would like to have an OGC codelist registry for

managing the QoS codelist values.
QoS metrics, operational status, maintenance effect
Each codelist value needs to be externally referenceable (by an
URI)
