Spatial Data on the Web Interest Group

Warning:
The Spatial Data on the Web Interest Group is now closed. Discussions continue in the Spatial Data on the Web Working group. Interested parties are encouraged to join the Working Group and follow discussions on the public-sdw-wg@w3.org mailing-list (with public archives).

The mission of the Spatial Data on the Web Interest Group was to develop and maintain vocabularies and best practices that encourage better sharing of spatial data on the Web; and identify areas where standards should be developed jointly by both W3C and the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC). Learn more about the goals, scope, and deliverables.

The Spatial Data on the Web Interest Group was a W3C entity matched by a sub-committee of OGC's Technical Committee. Collectively, the two comprised the Joint W3C/OGC Organizing Committee, the JWOC.

The Chairs of the Interest Group were Linda van den Brink (Geonovum) and Jeremy Tandy (Met Office). The W3C Team Contact for the Spatial Data on the Web Interest Group was Ted Guild.
