• Finding, accessing, integration, fusion and application of diverse sources of information in real time is critical
• Open standards are a key element in rapidly mobilizing data and services for emergency management planning and response
• OGC industry, academic and government members are addressing key grid interoperability issues
• An OGC partnership in CrisisGrid is an opportunity to further assist in standards development, validation and to accelerate transfer of technologies to commercial application
OGC’s Approach for Advancing InteroperabilityOGC’s Approach for Advancing Interoperability
• Interoperability Program (IP) - a global, innovative, hands-on prototyping and testing program designed to accelerate interface development and validation, and bring interoperability to the market
• Specification Development Program –Consensus processes similar to other Industry consortia (World Wide Web Consortium, OMG, etc.).
• Outreach and Community Adoption Program – education and training, encourage take up of OGC specifications, business development, communications programs

- Key Points of Interoperability - Key Points of Interoperability (interfaces with well-known message content and (interfaces with well-known message content and protocols that subscribe to a common protocols that subscribe to a common Information Architecture & Service ArchitectureInformation Architecture & Service Architecture))
Basic question one must ask for every distributed system: “What are the key points of interoperability that will enable a unified, coherent system from a user vantage?”

OGC Sensor Web Standards - GoalsOGC Sensor Web Standards - Goals
• Quickly discover sensors (secure or public) that can meet my needs – and learn about what they can do (location, observables, quality, ability to task)
• Obtain sensor information in a standard encoding that is understandable by the user and by software
• Readily access sensor observations in a common manner, and in a form specific to my needs
• Task sensors, when possible, to meet my specific needs
• Request and receive alerts / notification when a sensor measures a particular phenomenon, or completes a requested task
