The OOSTethys visualizer at OpenIOOS was demonstrated at the Oceans Innovation Meeting in Canada, displaying more than 1000 platforms from more than 15 organizations. The demonstration introduced a wide community of collaborators and audience members to the sophisticated real-time data displays available with standards such as SensorML.
Many other activities moved forward:
- A proposed plan for the Ocean Science Interoperability Experiment Phase II has been made available at the OOSTethys site.
- The Java cookbook was improved, and new releases based on it are available. (Next month there will be a new release of the Python cookbook.)
- The OOSTethys site was upgraded to provide better information to typical visitors; more work is planned.
- Collaborations with NOAA/IOOS continue to yield positive outcomes.
- A plan was defined to advance sensor descriptions and SWE Common XML encodings. The latter will be proposed at the SWECommon OGC working group and adopted by OOSTethys and NOAA/IOOS.
