Dear Elysa, dear all, regarding 5b "Jacob mentioned a comment from the German geosciences center.": This was me :-) I'm a system architect and software developer at the GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences, involved in several projects dealing with early warning and information logistics. Both CAP and EDXL-DE are used for warning message dissemination in our early warning projects, such as the Distant Early Warning System (DEWS, http://www.dews-online.org/ ). Currently the CAP xml schema defines all elements locally without using global type definitions. This prevents a reusage in other xml schemas, though this is a very interesting use case. For example we developed several Web Processing Services dealing with criticality classification of administrative units (such as counties or provinces) which are addressed by geocodes. Geocodes as key-value pairs are also used in the CAP standard and for this (and for other elements) we would like to integrate the CAP schema in xml schemas for our WPS. As said this is only possible with global type definitions. I re-structured the CAP 1.2 schema (without semantical changes) and initially sent the proposal in January to the emergency-comment mailing list (this was before GFZ joined OASIS). The document has been submitted to the OASIS Emergency Management TC document repository.

Hi Matthias, Welcome to OASIS and the EM-TC! Thank you for your clarification. I'm glad to hear of your good work using CAP and EDXL. Thank you for your comment submittal. We will have to determine if that change can be accommodated in an errata. We look forward to your involvement in the EM-TC. Regards, Elysa Jones, Chair EM-TC

Hi everyone On 2011-04-26 I uploaded a proposal for a new CAP.xsd. It provides global type definitions instead of local type definitions. See details below. Are there any news regarding this? Best regards, Matthias

For those that do not know what WPS is, that is the OGC Web Processing Service interface standard. http://www.opengeospatial.org/standards/wps , Very widely implemented in applications that have geospatial workflows. Also, DEWS is an excellent example of the use of international standards in an operational system Carl
