CubeWerx Take Part in OpenGISŪ Consortium OWS-1.2 Demonstration
CubeWerx plays a strong supporting role during final demonstrations at the conclusion OpenGISŪ Consortium's Web Services Initiative, Phase 2 (OWS-1.2)
Nov 28, 2002
Gatineau, Quebec -- CubeWerx recently took part in a series of demonstrations that brought OpenGIS® Consortium' Web Services Initiative Phase 1 (OWS-1.2) to an impressive conclusion.
CubeWerx demonstrated a beta version of a wireless application developed using CubeSERV® Mobile software components. With this application, a user was able to discover high-resolution (1m) imagery and feature layers in a given Area of Interest (AOI), for the purpose of requesting and obtaining a dynamic user-tailored map from an OGC-compliant Web Map Server.
The features where hosted by CubeWerx' Spatial Data Warehouse technology, CubeSTOR®, and access to the geospatial data was facilitated by OGC-compliant Web Map Server, CubeSERV® WMS, and Web Feature Server, CubeSERV® WFS.
According to Edric Keighan, CEO of CubeWerx: "The demonstration clearly established the case for deploying wireless applications, that can fully leverage interoperable Web Map Servers and Web Feature Servers."
