Had a good (if delayed) call last Friday.
Two main points:
1. Discussed the OASIS "where" GML application schema. All agreed that the
OGC should take ownership, finish the document, share with OASIS EM TC for
comment, modify based on comments, and then make the document an official OGC
standard. Issues:
. Which version of GML (3.1.1 or 3.2.1).
. Geometry only or allow full feature specification.
. Single or multi-geometries
2. Discussed CAP 1.2/2.0 and the Canadian "layers" capability. This led to
a discussion of specifying an extension mechanism for CAP that does not break
backwards compatibility but allows for regional extensions to meet specific
policy, regulatory, legal, or technical requirements. This is a more general TC
discussion that just Geo-GIS.
That's all!
