• 2013 UNGGIM Secretariat request OGC, ISO & IHO to create a non-technical guide explaining the role and importance of open geospatial standards.

• The Result:

• The Guide to the Role of Standards in Geospatial Information Management

• A Companion Document describing Standards by Tier

• Well received ( UN-GGIM (x2), Mexico, Caribbean

Discrete Global Grid Systems (DGGS)

• OGC recently formed DGGS Standards Working Group – DGGS’s exhaustively partition the globe in closely packed

hierarchical tessellations, each cell representing a homogenous value, with a unique identifier or indexing that allows for linear ordering, parent-child operations, and nearest neighbor algebraic operations.

– There are many possible DGGSs, each with their own advantages and disadvantages.
