interface humans & complex technology
use requests converted to OGC compliant
xml
decodes the OGC responses for human
consumption
63. âSimple, intuitive and timely access to
useful geographic data & information is my
right and not a privilegeâ

64. What do they get from us?
WFS, WMS, WCS, WPS, WxS, blah,
blah, blah âŠ
65. What do they get from us?
forgot it!
WFS, WMS, WCS, WPS, WxS, blah,
blah, blah âŠ
66. they create their own community
standards for sharing data ⊠but are
they any good?
67. Are they any good?
âThese powerful forces are creating
âtensionsâ that impact how we shape
and create standards for the global
community âŠ
68. Are they any good?
âMany of these tensions and associated
market forces are the same ones that
are driving the evolution of the Web
(Web 2.0 and Where 2.0) and the
integrated GeoWeb âŠ
69. Are they any good?
KML and GeoRSS are two new formats
that are making great headway on
the Web âŠ
70. Are they any good?
⊠strong collaboration between the
quot;traditionalquot; standards community
and the Where 2.0 community can
provide the greatest benefit for
everyoneâ
Can you guess who said this?
71. Are they any good?
⊠strong collaboration between the
quot;traditionalquot; standards community
and the Where 2.0 community can
provide the greatest benefit for
everyoneâ

86. Microformats & Semanitcs
Much in the same way that operating systems
currently associate particular file types with specific
applications, future Web browsers are likely going to
associate semantically marked up data you encounter
on the Web with specific applications, either on your
system or online.
