update of activities OGC, MMI ...

All,

At the last meeting I said I was going to provide an update of  
activities, which I am involved with and that  can be of interest to  
this group.

Ocean Science Interoperability Experiment Phase II
Lead by OOStethys to advance use of SOS in the marine community.  
report here:
http://www.oostethys.org/ogc-oceans-interoperability-experiment/report2folder/oceansie2
At the end of the report you can find a partial mapping from SensorML  
to IEEE 1451

PUCK: Is an instrument protocol specification lead by MBARI that will  
be advance within OGC. Kickoff meeting of this SWE is tomorrow
http://www.opengeospatial.org/projects/groups/puck1.0swg

As part of OOSTethys/MMI development we have a web tool to create a  
minimum SensorML with controlled vocabularies from ontologies at MMI,  
here:
http://code.google.com/p/oostethys/wiki/SmlMor
It is a very early prototype that can be used by sensor manufacturers  
and others to create rich SensorML documents

OGC is seeking comments to the SWECommon model: ( provides a model to  
describe how the data is actually encoded as well as a model to encode  
the data within SWE)
http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/requests/63

OGC is seeking comments on Sensor Planning Service SPS ( feasibility  
and controlling of sensor tasks) http://www.opengeospatial.org/pressroom/pressreleases/1152

MMI is continuing having bi-weekly meetings to advance the MMI device  
ontology : http://marinemetadata.org/community/teams/ontdevices
The MMI technical lead will available in 2 weeks and we plan to meet  
and advance possible synergies with SSN-XG

cheers,

-Luis
