New Spec For Geospatial Info
The Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) has adopted the OpenGIS Catalog Services Specification 2.0, a move designed to improve location-based services for mobile devices.
Source: Internet NewsIt specifies an open, standard interface that will let applications search for and query published geographic information and services, such as maps, satellite images and road systems. The catalog spec will make it much easier and cheaper for companies to develop location-based services for the Web and mobile devices, said Christopher Tucker, CEO of Ionic Software, one of the contributors to the spec.
