Abstract
The vision and mission of the Open Geospatial Consortium is discussed, with emphasis on its role to bring the power of location to decision makers around the world. OGC standards have significantly improved location information sharing worldwide and enable rapid integration of location data and technologies used in traditional mapping. OGC’s focus now is to improve decision making through the efficient application of location to a range of social, economic and environmental topics. OGC standards facilitate the rapid mobilization of new data sources (e.g. commercial imagery, LIDAR) and new and disruptive technologies (e.g. IoT, autonomous and unmanned systems) to address challenges related to climate change, water resource availability, urban planning and management, insurance risk assessment, public safety, alternative energy placement, and land administration to name a few.
