The Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) and the International Data Spaces Association (IDSA) have signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) that outlines how they will together contribute to a flourishing data economy through the creation and development of standards for data spaces that ensure sovereign, interoperable, and trusted data sharing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cAs the number of available data sources continues to grow, the challenge of integrating them into high-value products becomes ever greater,\u201d commented OGC Chief Technology Innovation Officer, Ingo Simonis, Ph.D. \u201cIn order to develop effective solutions for cross-border data integration, international collaboration is critical. As such, OGC is eager to work with IDSA to tackle this task together.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cCommitted to driving digital transformation, IDSA champions economic growth, innovation, and a cohesive data-sharing approach,\u201d said Silvia Castellvi, Director of Research & Standardization at IDSA. \u201cPartnering with OGC ensures our standards align and resonate. Enhancing features, like the geolocation of IDS Connectors, not only advances our standard but boosts its appeal for future developers and users.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
OGC is an international non-profit consortium aiming to make geospatial (location) information and data services FAIR – Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable. IDSA is an international non-profit association that follows a user-driven approach to create a global standard for international data spaces and interfaces based on sovereign data sharing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The MoU seeks to align activities between the two organizations so that OGC and IDSA Standards can work in tandem. This will be achieved in part through joint participation in potential future projects and initiatives, particularly in the areas of global supply chains, intelligent transport, and smart city data spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Projects in global supply chains and intelligent transport may include developing solutions that support the monitoring of shipping routes, tracking freight, sharing ocean currents and weather data, and more. Projects in smart city data spaces could focus on improving data sharing from business and technical perspectives, and could include data ranging from traffic to population migration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The two organizations have already identified several ongoing or completed projects relevant to their work together, including: Divine<\/a>, Flexigrobots<\/a>, DEMETER<\/a>, ATLAS<\/a> & AgriDataValue<\/a>, Iliad<\/a>, AD4GD<\/a>, OGC Rainbow<\/a>, and others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n About IDSA<\/strong> Press contact: OGC & IDSA will work together to contribute to the creation and development of Standards for data spaces that support a flourishing data economy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8696,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_eb_attr":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[169],"tags":[201,333],"class_list":["post-8695","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-announcement","tag-data-spaces","tag-idsa"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fm-connect1.fortmindz.in\/wp-ogc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8695","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fm-connect1.fortmindz.in\/wp-ogc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fm-connect1.fortmindz.in\/wp-ogc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fm-connect1.fortmindz.in\/wp-ogc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fm-connect1.fortmindz.in\/wp-ogc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=8695"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/fm-connect1.fortmindz.in\/wp-ogc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8695\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fm-connect1.fortmindz.in\/wp-ogc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8696"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fm-connect1.fortmindz.in\/wp-ogc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8695"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fm-connect1.fortmindz.in\/wp-ogc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8695"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fm-connect1.fortmindz.in\/wp-ogc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8695"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
The International Data Spaces Association (IDSA) is on a mission to create the future of the global, digital economy. Its 140+ member companies and institutions have created the International Data Spaces (IDS) standard: a secure system of sovereign and trusted data sharing in which all participants can realize the full value of their data. IDS enables new smart services and innovative business processes to work across companies and industries, while ensuring that the control of data remains in the hands of data providers. We call this data sovereignty.
