NOAA IOOS Using OGC Sensor Web Enablement Standards

National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) program Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS) is implementing a number of Sensor Web Enablement (SWE) standards

National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) program Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS) is implementing a number of OGC standards. The same standards that OOSTethys have been using for 2 years.

NOAA will begin the effort of using OGC's Sensor Web Enablement (SWE) suite of specifications by establishing interoperable access to online databases maintained by the National Weather Service (NWS) National Data Buoy Center (NDBC), the National Ocean Service (NOS) Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services (CO-OPS) and the National Environmental Satellite Data Information Service (NESDIS) CoastWatch Program. This will be accomplished using web service interface and encoding standards developed by the OGC.
