George, this is great to hear.
CC/Apache Board George – is there OGC interest in engaging Apache similarly like we have a VP, W3C? I believe the practice in the past has been to provide free membership in the organization (like OGC) to Apache members. Is this a possibility/consideration? Thanks and great work.

One of these ideas to continue and increase engagement with Apache big data open source. When Apache conferences for 2018 are announced it would be good to again organize a geospatial track. Thanks again for your contributions, George Percivall CTO, Chief Engineer Open Geospatial Consortium _______________________________________________________________________ Big Geospatial Data – an OGC White Paper Top level outline of the white paper: 1. The Big Data Trend and Geospatial Information 2. The Value of Big Geo Data Applications 3. Use cases for Big Geo Data 4. OGC Big Geo Data Opportunities 5. OGC activities on Big Geo Data The attached figure provides overview of Section 3 Use Cases. Section 4 lists several Big Geo Data opportunities - several are already underway in OGC: • Cloud computing for EO data • Analysis Ready Data and Datacubes • Data Representation for Big Geo Data: Features, Coverages, DGGS • Big Linked Geodata • Big Geo Data - Open source PastedGraphic-1.tiff On May 13, 2016, at 4:41 PM, George Percivall <[email protected]> wrote: Apache Big Data NA 2016 included a Geospatial Track <https://apachebigdata2016.sched.org/overview/type/Geospatial> There were eight presentations, a BoF session, and a wrap-up session.
