SIS >implements interfaces derived from UML published jointly by the Open >Geospatial Consortium (OGC) and the International Organization for >Standardization (ISO). This presentation will introduce the OGC vision, >the benefits of standards, the GeoAPI approach of using interfaces to >support standards, and the Apache SIS implementation of those interfaces >as well as future roadmap. This presentation will focus on metadata (ISO >19115) and georeferencing by coordinates (ISO 19111). We will give a >quick introduction to geodesy, in particular examining a common pitfall >of only specifying (latitude, longitude) that is not sufficient for >uniquely identifying a position on Earth, and show how Apache SIS can >handle this part of the complexity for developers. > >Speaker Bio: >Martin holds a Ph.D thesis in oceanography, but has continuously >developed tools for helping his analysis work. He used MatLab, Fortran, >assembler and C/C++ before to switch to Java in 1997. He develops >geospatial libraries since that time, initially as a personal project >then as a GeoTools contributor until 2008. He is now contributing to >Apache SIS. Martin attends to Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) meetings >about twice per year in the hope to follow closely standard developments >and improve Apache SIS conformance to those standards. Previous speaking >experience include two FOSS4G events. Geomatys is a small IT services >company specialized in spatial information processing and development of >geoportals. Geomatys is an OGC member and develop a stack of open source >software for spatial applications, with Apache SIS as the foundation to >which Geomatys contributes actively. > >Please contact [email protected] if you have trouble seeing the presentation >or joining the audio conference. > >Cheers, >Suresh > _______________________________________________ ogc-nasa mailing list [email protected] https://lists.nasa.gov/mailman/listinfo/ogc-nasa
