services standard

 The Committee Draft of ISO 19119 - Services is currently out for review.
This revision contains significant updates to the original 2003 version of
this standard. As the IEEE-GRSS liaison to TC211 I can submit comments.
Another avenue for submitting feedback is through ANSI-INCITS/L1 whose
chair is currently Liping Di of George Mason University. Comments are due
November 8th, i.e. very soon.

>From the introduction:
"This International Standard provides a framework for developers to create
software that enables users to access and process geographic data from a
variety of sources across a generic computing interface within an open
information technology environment." Its scope includes:

   - Identification and definition of the architecture patterns for service
   interfaces used for geographic information and definition of the
   relationships to the Open Systems Environment model.
   - A geographic services taxonomy and a list of example geographic
   services placed in the services taxonomy.
   - How to create a platform-neutral service specification, and how to
   derive platform-specific service specifications that are conformant with
   this.
   - Guidelines for the selection and specification of geographic services
   from both platform-neutral and platform-specific perspectives.
   - How a service infrastructure and technologies around services and
   service architectures can support the integration with sensor and data
   architectures.

If you have an interest in studying and responding to this draft, let me
know and I will send you a copy after getting your agreement not to
distribute further.

Note that the conceptual model for service metadata was moved to 19115-1
(the revision of 19115 currently in final draft stage - I can send you the
model)

Thanks,
SiriJodha
