CubeWerx participates in OGC test bed 16

Gatineau, April 19, 2016 – Continuing its long tradition of support for the OGC and Open Standards, CubeWerx announces their participation in OGC Testbed 16 http://www.opengeospatial.org/projects/initiatives/t-16. OWS testbeds are part of OGC’s Interoperability Program, a global, hands-on and collaborative prototyping program designed to rapidly develop, test and deliver proven candidate specifications into OGC’s Specification Program, where they are formalized for public release. Testbed-15 aims to explore new levels of interoperable geospatial data processing with a focus on data-centric security, federated clouds, service & application discovery, portrayal, machine learning, and delta updates.. The testbed content is organized into many technology-specific threads. CubeWerx is participating substantially in the following threads:

Delta Update – The ability to ask the WFS what features have changed between two checkpoints

Open Portrayal – The ability to add new images to an image repo and then have the newly created tiles appear through a WMTS (portrayal thread)
