@6a6d74 Many years ago, as we started the Met-Ocean extensions to OGC Web Coverage Service, I also tried to started work on a Web Coverage Tile Service in OGC. There was resistance at the time, and it went into abeyance. There has been a lot more work since, in OGC Interoperability Experiments and Testbeds, on tiling (2D and 3D), and this is now manifesting as input into the OGC API - Tiles standard. Also, there is now a conceptual model for multi-dimensional tiling in the OGC pipeline, with a 2D concrete implementation extension [Core Tiling Conceptual and Logical Models for 2D Euclidean Space](https://portal.ogc.org/files/?artifact_id=92962&version=1). It has been out for [public comment](https://www.ogc.org/pressroom/pressreleases/3138) and is currently subject to an electronic vote for release as an underlying "Abstract Specification Topic". There is no extension yet for 3D tessellations or for tiling that involves overlaps and gaps. It is not clear to me that any of the OGC 3D tiling work has a solid underlying conceptual model. There is still a gap between these (real, actual) space tiling efforts and the idea of tiling/tessellating the abstract spaces of the RDF Data Cube Vocabulary, which would encompass paging/partitioning. I do not think that the OGC data tiles activities will bridge the gap to ontologies.
