OASIS Members and other interested parties,
OASIS is pleased to announce the approval and publication of a new
Committee Specification by the members of the <tc name> TC:
Emergency Data Exchange Language Situation Reporting (EDXL-SitRep) Version
1.0
Committee Specification 02
06 October 2016
What is EDXL SitRep and why is it important?
The XML-based Emergency Data Exchange Language (EDXL) Situation Reporting
specification describes a set of standard reports and elements that can be
used for data sharing among emergency information systems, and that provide
incident information for situation awareness on which incident command can
base decisions.
This is an OASIS deliverable, completed and approved by the TC and fully
ready for testing and implementation.
TC Description:
The Emergency Management TC creates vendor-neutral and platform agnostic
standards for organizations and agencies to more easily exchange emergency
information.
The Emergency Data Exchange Language (EDXL) is a broad initiative to create
an integrated framework for a wide range of emergency data exchange
standards to support operations, logistics, planning and finance.
This draft specification joins the other EM-TC standard efforts including:
- EDXL Common Alerting Protocol (EDXL-CAP)
- EDXL Distribution Element (EDXL-DE)
- EDXL Hospital AVailability Exchange (EDXL-HAVE)
- EDXL Resource Messaging (EDXL-RM)
- EDXL Reference Information Model (EDXL-RIM)
- EDXL Situation Reporting (EDXL-SitRep)
- EDXL Tracking Emergency Patients (EDXL-TEP)
