Joint OGC/EOGEO Sessions at Digital Earth 2001
26 June 2001 - 26 June 2001
This year a joint OGC/EOGEO (Open GIS consortium/Earth observation and geo spatial) session will be held from 26 to 28 June at the Digital Earth conference, taking placed in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada.
The first day will be dedicated to OGC presentations describing the major new developments taking place in Web mapping and geospatial fusion testbeds. The emphasis will be at the applications level. OGC is organising the programme for the first day.
The next two days will continue with the EOGEO workshop itself. EOGEO is for developers and will focus on the technical implementation issues broadening to include EO systems and wider Web technologies. The programme will be composed of accepted papers presented both orally and through hands-on demonstration periods.
Participants of Digital Earth will be able to attend the joint OGC/EOGEO session and submissions for the EOGEO workshop are now invited in the form of extended abstracts. The deadline for submission is 31 March. Submitted abstracts should concentrate on software techniques, and new/emerging web technologies. OGC is particularly interested in receiving abstracts relating to the following area:
- WMT2 (OGC Web Mapping Standards) technical issues and developments;
- Building a framework for interoperable data services;
- Distributed computing . SOAP, XML-RPC, Corba, Java;
- The Semantic Web, RDF, UDDI;
- XML related technologies - XSLT, Schemas, GML, SVG;
- Catalogues, Thesauri, Gazeteers;
