  1. Philadelphia, May 2–4, 2005 www.locationintelligence.net How OGC Location Service Standards Enable Integration with Enterprise IT Carl Reed, PhD CTO, Open Geospatial Consortium May 2, 2005

  2. What is the OGC? • The Open Geospatial Consortium, inc. (OGC) is a non-profit international voluntary consensus standards organization that is leading the development of standards for geospatial and location based services. • The OGC facilitates a consensus process in which government, private industry, and academia collaborate to create open and extensible software application programming interfaces for geospatial and other mainstream information technologies

  3. The OGC vision enables a global geospatial and IT community Composed of many collaborating organizations... authoring and publishing open standards for geospatial interoperability

  4. Autodesk Oracle MapInfo Intergraph ESRI Navteq TeleAtlas Ionic Enterprises CPdQ Webraska TelContar Northrup Grumman Boeing Ordnance Survey DeLorem Mobile GIS FEMA NGA Others Some OGC Members providing solutions in LBS space

  5. What is Spatial Interoperability? • Interoperability is the ability to: • Link business processes across organisational lines and cost-effectively share information resources, • Find data, information and processing tools no matter where they are physically located, and • Seamlessly operate no matter what type of computer system or display device is being used, whether local or remote • Also known as “on demand access” • Real time • As and when needed • Vendor and content model independent • Accessing the source of operational data “My stuff operates with your stuff, and I don’t care where it is, how it works and what the format is”

  6. MIC alert: storm warning for Liverpool area. Take precautions to protect your home and car from damage. “Invisible Success” of the enabling framework

  7. OGC Standards and the Location Services Market

  8. The OGC OpenLS Interface Suite • OGC - Open Location Services – Core Interfaces defined as XML for Location Services (XLS) Supports both HTTP and SOAP. • OpenLS ADTs • OpenLS Directory Service • OpenLS Geocoder • OpenLS Reverse Geocoder • OpenLS Presentation Service • OpenLS Route Service • OpenLS Gateway Service (Interface to OMA MLP) • And of course GML (Geography Markup Language) for encoding payloads of geospatial content.

  9. Internet Role of OpenLS in LS Server Architecture Provide Subscribers with Location-Based Application Services / Content Portal & Service Platforms CORE NETWORK Mobile Switch GeoMobility Server • Maps • Routes • Directories • Points of Interest • Addresses • Navigation • Discovery • Presentation At work or home On the go GMLC/MPC Position Determination Methods: LDT/PDE: cell/ID/sector, A-GPS, E-OTD, AOA, TDOA, TOA

  10. Example LBS Technology Providers Using OpenLS Interfaces • Hutchison 3G – Location Enabled Application • Autodesk – LocationLogic • ESRI – Arc Location Services • TelContar – Drill Down Server version 3.2 • Oracle - Oracle 9iAS Wireless Version 9.0.3 and Oracle Application Server 10g  Wireless Edition(Version 9.0.4) • Ionic Enterprise – RedSpider Lobos (LOcation Based OGC Solution) • MapInfo – Envinsa 3.0 (SOAP and HTTP)

  11. Implementations of OpenLS • Intergraph – Will be part of next release of LocationServer and GeoMedia WebMap • Webraska - SmartZone Geospatial Platform (Java and SOAP) • LBS research Team, Telematics Research Division, ETRI, South Korea • SAM (Mobile Services and Applications) is a CPqD Project that aims to develop Location Based Services to public administration (Presentation, Gateway, and Geocoding) • Sprint – Mobility Framework • Verizon • Others . . .

  12. Example Application that Uses Standard Interfaces

  13. Benefits of moving to a standards based LBS architecture

  14. Benefits and Value of using standard interfaces and protocols for LBS • Integrate (fuse) many information resources on demand for better customer experience and decision support. • Protect investment in legacy systems • More easily respond to changes in the LBS infrastructure • Change technology providers as well as better protect and enhance relationships with existing partners. • Access and utilize content from many partners without requiring a common format or model. • Can quickly wrap local or remote routing and geocoding engines of any vendor (comment from a user) • More effectively plug into larger information infrastructures • Reduce coding development and maintenance costs

  15. Cost reduction • Initially the task of adding security to a Web service took 20,379 lines of code; adding reliable messaging took 5,988 lines of code and adding transactions took 25,507 lines of code, Rudder said. With an additional 4,442 for infrastructure plumbing, the total came to more than 56,000. Now security, reliable messaging, and transactions each require one line of code, he said. • Referring to the value of using the WS-Security and WS-Discovery standards

  16. OGC Collaboration with other Standards Orgs • OMA MLP 3.1 uses OGC standards and models for geometry and coordinate reference system expression. • A new MOU defines how OGC and IEEE 1451 (sensors) collaborate and work towards harmonizing our standards work. • Work with OASIS in several areas. • Work with ISO TC 211 in numerous joint work items. • The new Liberty Alliance geo-location Web service interface references MLP 3.1 and therefore OGC standards. • Collaborating with IETF Geopriv WG. The proposed enhancements to PIDF for location uses OGC GML encoding.

  18. Emergency Command Center Support Emergency Notification & Incident Reporting • Situation Notification Service • Common means for sharing location-based emergency notification messages • Collaboration with OASIS • Incident Reports • Location-based incident reports for cross-jurisdictional use • Collaborate with DOJ • Projects with ORNL

  19. Summary – the value of good standards • Enable innovation • Protect legacy and future investments • Enable integration and interoperability • Future proof current applications • Leverage value of legacy applications and infrastructure • Flexibility of choice and implementation • Enable co-opetition • Increase partner loyalty • Increase win-win in partner relationships • Enables technology convergence
