GEOSS Wild Fires In South Africa Movie Available
After several days spent at the National Academy of Sciences in DC, we finally completed the first draft of our movie to be presented at the GEO plenary in DC, and at the GEO Ministerial Summit in Cape Town, South Africa in November.
Our use-case: Wild Fire Monitoring in South Africa, is part of a pilot effort sponsored by the OGC. We still have some work to do to bring in more satellite assets (SPOT, IRS…). Some integration will also be done as part of OWS-5.
Automation is supported by workflows (OpenWFE) integrated within a Resource-Oriented Architecture, This effort will be presented in Boulder next week at the OGC Technical Committee.
The end-product allows end-users to quickly access the published data, order custom products for additional situational awareness. Mashups can be quickly visualized and shared in Mapufacture.
Thanks to John Mettraux and AJ Turner for their support.
