DESCRIPTION:pygeoapi is an OGC API Reference Implementation. Implemented in
  Python\, pygeoapi supports numerous OGC APIs via a core agnostic API\, di
 fferent web frameworks (Flask\, Starlette\, Django) and a fully integrated
  OpenAPI capability. Lightweight\, easy to deploy and cloud-ready\, pygeoa
 pi's architecture facilitates publishing datasets and processes from multi
 ple sources. The project also provides an extensible plugin framework\, en
 abling developers to implement custom data adapters\, filters and processe
 s to meet their specific requirements and workflows. pygeoapi also support
 s the STAC specification in support of static data publishing.\n\npygeoapi
  has a significant install base around the world\, with numerous projects 
 in academia\, government and industry deployments. The project is also an 
 OGC API Reference Implementation\, lowering the barrier to publishing geos
 patial data for all users.\n\nThis presentation will provide an update on 
 the current status\, latest developments in the project\, including new co
 re features and plugins. In addition\, the presentation will highlight key
  projects using pygeoapi for geospatial data discovery\, access and visual
 ization.

DESCRIPTION:Keeping (OGC) Geospatial Web Services up-and-running is best ac
 commodated by continuous monitoring: not only downtime needs to be guarded
 \, \nbut also whether the services are functioning correctly and do not su
 ffer from performance and/or other Quality of Service (QoS) issues.\nGeoHe
 althCheck (GHC) is an Open Source Python application for monitoring uptime
  and availability of OGC Web Services.\nIn this talk we will explain GHC b
 asics\, how it works\, how you can use and even extend GHC (plugins).\n\nT
 here is an abundance of standard (HTTP) monitoring tools that may guard fo
 r general status and uptime of web services. \nBut OGC web services often 
 have their own error\, "Exception"\, reporting not caught by generic HTTP 
 uptime\ncheckers. For example\, an OGC Web Mapping Service (WMS) may provi
 de an Exception as a valid XML response or\nin a error message written "in
 -image"\, or an error may render a blank image. \nA generic uptime checker
  may assume the service is functioning as from those requests and an HTTP 
 status "200" is returned.\n\nOther OGC services may have specific QoS issu
 es not directly obvious. A successful and valid "OWS GetCapabilities" resp
 onse may not \nguarantee that individual services are functioning correctl
 y. For example an OGC Web Feature Service (WFS) based on a dynamic databas
 e may \nreturn zero Features on a GetFeature response caused by issues in 
 an underlying database. Even standard HTTP checkers supporting "keywords" 
 \nmay not detect all failure cases. Many OGC services will have multiple "
 layers" or feature types\, \nhow to check them all?\n\nWhat is needed is a
  form of semantic checking and reporting specific to OGC services!\n\nGeoH
 ealthCheck (GHC) is an Open Source (MIT) web-based framework through which
  OGC-based web services can be monitored. GHC is written in \nPython (with
  Flask) under the umbrella of the GeoPython GitHub Organization. It is cur
 rently an OSGeo Community Project. \n\nGHC consists of a web-UI through wh
 ich OGC service endpoint URLs and their checks can be managed\, \nand moni
 toring-results can be inspected\, plus a monitoring engine that executes s
 cheduled "health-checks" on OGC service endpoints. \nA database stores res
 ults\, allowing for various forms of reporting.\n\nGHC is extensible: a pl
 ugin-system is available for "Probes" to support an expanding number of \n
 cases for OGC specific requests and -checks. Work is in progress to provid
 e a GHC API for various integrations.\n\nInfo\, sources\, demo: https://ge

DESCRIPTION:pygeometa provides a lightweight and Pythonic approach for user
 s to easily create geospatial metadata in standards-based formats using si
 mple configuration files (affectionately called metadata control files [MC
 F]). Leveraging the simple but powerful YAML format\, pygeometa can genera
 te metadata in numerous standards. Users can also create their own custom 
 metadata formats which can be plugged into pygeometa for custom metadata f
 ormat output.\n\nFor developers\, pygeometa provides a Pythonic API that a
 llows developers to tightly couple metadata generation within their system
 s and integrate nicely into metadata production pipelines.\n\nThe project 
 supports various metadata formats out of the box including ISO 19115\, the
  WMO Core Metadata Profile\, and the WIGOS Metadata Standard.\n\npygeometa
  has minimal dependencies (install is less than 50 kB)\, and provides a fl
 exible extension mechanism leveraging the Jinja2 templating system.\n\nThi
 s presentation will provide an update on recent enhancements\, use in high
  profile projects as well as future plans and roadmap.

DESCRIPTION:Open Software and Open Standards are complementary pieces of th
 e geospatial ecosystem. In January 2022\, OSGeo and OGC signed a new and u
 pdated version of the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) that aims to maxim
 ize the achievement of the mission and goals of both organizations. Execut
 ion of joint Code Sprints\, identifying free and open source technologies 
 that could be used as Reference Implementations for OGC Standards and vali
 dating OGC compliance tests are examples of activities that can take place
  within the scope of the agreement.\n\nIn the first year after the agreeme
 nt was signed\, we established the basilar stones for the OSGeo membership
  within OGC and promoted the related activities within OSGeo. Now we start
  to see an increasing interest from both sides and some outcomes which are
  important to highlight.\n\nThis presentation will provide an overview of 
 all activities accomplished under the MoU over the last year\, as well as 
 discuss future plans. For those who have been distracted\, it will reitera
 te the benefits of the agreement\, which allows OSGeo charter members to r
 epresent the priorities of OSGeo in the development of OGC Standards and s
 upporting documents and services.\n\nMoU: https://www.osgeo.org/wp-content

DESCRIPTION:Open-source software has become increasingly crucial for the Wo
 rld Meteorological Organization (WMO) and its Members\, particularly those
  in developing countries\, Least Developed Countries (LDCs)\, and Small Is
 land Developing States (SIDS).  The potential of open source can enable cl
 imate action for adaptation\, while also addressing the challenges and opp
 ortunities presented by the current landscape of open-source development w
 ithin the WMO.\n\nOpen-source solutions also play a pivotal role as accele
 rators for the implementation of Early Warnings for All\, a key UN initiat
 ive in which WMO is playing a critical role\, aimed at protecting every pe
 rson on Earth with life-saving early warning systems by 2027. By providing
  accessible\, customizable\, and cost-effective tools\, open-source softwa
 re enables WMO Members to rapidly deploy and adapt early warning systems t
 o their specific needs and contexts. This approach is particularly crucial
  for developing countries\, LDCs and SIDS\, where resource constraints oft
 en hinder the implementation of proprietary solutions.\n\nMoreover\, open-
 source initiatives serve as powerful catalysts in supporting WMO Members' 
 efforts towards digital transformation. As National Meteorological and Hyd
 rological Services (NMHSs) worldwide strive to modernize their operations 
 and services\, open-source tools offer a flexible and scalable foundation 
 for innovation. They enable Members to leverage cutting-edge technologies\
 , collaborate on development\, and share best practices\, thus acceleratin
 g their digital transformation journeys while optimizing resource utilizat
 ion.\n\nFor many years\, WMO has been actively involved in developing and 
 supporting open-source software as a low-barrier\, low-cost solution for i
 ts Members. These efforts\, combined with comprehensive training and mento
 ring activities\, have been met with enthusiasm and success.\n\nThis prese
 ntation will provide an overview of Open Source at WMO\, its significant u
 se\, current status and future plans for increased development and use of 
 Open Source software to help lower the implementation barrier to data exch
 ange of weather/climate/water/environmental data.\n\nJoin us as we explore
  how WMO is transforming global weather\, water\, and climate data sharing
 \, and discover how this initiative\, along with FOSS4G tools\, is fosteri
 ng collaboration\, innovation\, and societal benefits on a global scale\, 
 with a particular focus on supporting Climate Action and Early Warning for
  All.
