RE: Date/Time for combined SC meeting for gmlSF with DE and SitReps

Tim - and TC

FYI. A few years ago the IETF community defined a GML application schema  for encoding geodetic payloads - either in a larger payload such as SIP or by  reference. They had a similar discussion regarding how to best use GML to  express coordinates. In order to provide some degree of flexibility and to allow  consistency with various location sources (cell tower, GPS, assisted GPS and so  on), they decided to have the schema support both coordinate encoding styles  (pos and posList).

Interesting also that the EMIX TC just had a similar discussion  and most likely will also decide to use both approaches.

And for those of you really interested in GML, there will be a public  announcement next Tuesday WRT a 30 day public comment period for GML 3.3.

And on the Monday of the September OGC Boulder  Technical Committee meetings (we have only one TC), there will be a full day GML  4.0 requirements workshop. This will be an open meeting so anyone with an  interest in the evolution of GML can attend and express requirements, issues,  etc.

Cheers
