The Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) announces its Call for Participation (CFP) in the OGC Interoperable Simulation and Gaming (ISG) Year 2 Sprint<\/a>. The sprint builds upon momentum of the previous ISG Sprint conducted in September, 2020<\/a>. Proposals for participation are due by April 30.<\/p>\n

The primary goal of the Year 1 Sprint was to advance the use of relevant Khronos Group<\/a>\u00ae and OGC standards in the modeling and simulation community through practical exercise and testing of the OGC API – GeoVolumes draft specification. The outcomes of the sprint are documented in the ISG Sprint Engineering Report<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This, the Year 2 Sprint, is soliciting prototype implementations across a much broader set of existing and forthcoming Khronos and OGC Standards and specifications. The primary goal is to discover new ideas and recommendations for advancing the baselines of these partnered Standards Development Organizations.<\/p>\n

The sprint is another outcome of the successful liaison between OGC and Khronos, which aims to advance open geospatial standards related to the fields of augmented and virtual reality, distributed simulation, and 3D content services. As part of the liaison, the two organizations are working jointly to promote 3D geospatial APIs and related graphical representations. The sprint is the next step in this cooperative effort and will advance ongoing standards development activities for both organizations, with particular focus on OGC's CDB Standard<\/a> and the Khronos Group's glTF\u2122 Standard<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Interoperable Simulation and Gaming Year 2 Sprint will be conducted under OGC's Innovation Program<\/a>, a collaborative, agile, and hands-on prototyping and engineering environment where sponsors and OGC members come together to address location interoperability challenges while validating international open standards. Watch this short video on how OGC's Innovation Program can benefit your organization<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Ongoing information about this initiative can be found on the Interoperable Simulation and Gaming Year 2 Sprint page<\/a> on the OGC website.<\/em><\/p>\n
