The Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) is excited to announce that the Executable Test Suite (ETS) for version 2.0 of the Web Processing Service (WPS) Standard has been approved by the OGC Membership. Products that implement the Standard and pass the tests in the ETS can now be certified as OGC Compliant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The OGC Compliance Program<\/a> offers a certification process that ensures organizations\u2019 solutions are compliant with OGC Standards. It is a universal credential that allows agencies, industry, and academia to better integrate their solutions. OGC Compliance provides confidence that a product will seamlessly integrate with other compliant solutions regardless of the vendor that created them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The WPS Standard<\/a> supports the wrapping of computational tasks into executable processes that can be offered by a server through a web service interface and be invoked by a client application. The processes typically combine coverage, raster, vector, and\/or point cloud data with well-defined algorithms to produce new information. Some of those algorithms may apply Machine Learning and other Artificial Intelligence (AI) approaches, as demonstrated by the OGC Testbed-16<\/a> initiative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Implementers of the WPS 2.0 Standard are invited to validate their products using the new test suite, which is available now on the OGC Validator Tool<\/a>. Testing involves submitting the endpoint of a WPS implementation to be assessed. The validator tool sends the appropriate requests to the endpoint of the implementation and then evaluates the responses. These tests typically take only 5-10 minutes to complete. Once a product has passed the tests, the implementer can submit an application to OGC for use of the OGC Compliant trademark on their product. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To support developers with implementation of the standard, GeoLabs ZOO-Project 2.0<\/a> and the 52\u00b0North 52N Web Processing Service 4.0.0-beta.10<\/a> product have been designated as reference implementations<\/a> of the standard after the software products successfully passed the compliance tests.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n More information about the OGC compliance process, and how it can benefit your organization, is available at <\/em>ogc.org\/compliance<\/em><\/a>. Implementers of <\/em>version 2.0 of the WPS Standard<\/em><\/a> \u2013 or other OGC Standards \u2013 can validate their products using the <\/em>OGC Validator Tool<\/em><\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Products that implement WPS v2.0 can now be certified as OGC Compliant, simplifying integration of the product by agencies, industry, and academia.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":8953,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_eb_attr":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[169],"tags":[241,321,339],"class_list":["post-8952","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-announcement","tag-compliance","tag-compliance-testing","tag-web-processing-service"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fm-connect1.fortmindz.in\/wp-ogc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8952","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=8952"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/fm-connect1.fortmindz.in\/wp-ogc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/8952\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fm-connect1.fortmindz.in\/wp-ogc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/8953"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fm-connect1.fortmindz.in\/wp-ogc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=8952"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fm-connect1.fortmindz.in\/wp-ogc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=8952"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fm-connect1.fortmindz.in\/wp-ogc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=8952"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
