What, exactly, does innovation mean?
“Innovation key to continued success” Saudia Aramco website News, 12-Dec-2013
• “Linguistically, the word ‘innovation’ (in Arabic, ibteda’a)
implies creating something new”
– This kind of innovation is powerful but rare.
– Other forms of innovation: improving an existing system,
using an existing technology in a new context or discovering ways
to become more efficient
• “It is tempting to think we are doing well, so why change?
But the truth is that in such a market, you have to be
innovative.”
– The danger is to be complacent and satisfied with maintaining old
ways just because they have worked well in the past.

OGC’s response to the Innovator’s Dilemma
• Must maintain current OGC standards while simultaneously
addressing evolution of technology and markets
– Ensure harmonization in OGC standards
• OGC response to the Innovators Dilemma
– Extend or adapt the present baseline of standards
– New standards that overlap with or diverge from existing standards,
along with guidance to evaluate among options
– Harmonization techniques (brokers, facades) for interoperability

Location Data Quality
• >Half of Facebook and Foursquare
locations are inaccurate
Derek Browers, MomentFeed
• Dirty Little Secret Of LBS Ads
–Inferred (“made up”) lat/lon points
• “Important for decision makers to understand
accuracy of geocodes so they have a sense of
confidence they can place in the data.”

OGC Points of Interest
• POI Standard development
– Began in W3C with OGC participation, now OGC leadership
– OGC Standards Working Group formed to complete work
• Key Use Case
– Authoritative source maintains PoIs (Starbucks maintains their PoIs)
– PoI Aggregators offer services (Google offers search on PoI
database)
– Consolidators gather PoIs from Authoritative sources using OGC

"API Design is Stuck in 2008"
• “RESTful Web Services”, Ruby and Richardson, 2007
– “I like to think it contributed in some small way to the explosion of
RESTful APIs that began around that time.” – Richardson
• Richardson: “Thousands of APIs created over the past 7
years are superficially similar but mutually incompatible”
– Different views of basic real-world concepts like “person” and “event”
– APIs that do exactly the same thing but have nothing in common
except json media type.
– Lack of agreement makes it impossible to create software that can
be reused between APIs

OGC‘s Approach for Advancing Interoperability
Copyright © 2014 Open Geospatial Consortium
• Interoperability Program (IP) - a global,
innovative, hands-on rapid prototyping and testing
program designed to unite users and industry in
accelerating interface development and validation,
and the delivery of interoperability to the market
• Standards Program – Consensus standards
process similar to other Industry consortia (World
Wide Web Consortium, OMA etc.).
• Communications and Outreach Program–
education and training, encourage take up of OGC
specifications, business development,
communications programs
• Compliance Program - allows organizations
that implement an OGC standard to test their
implementations with the mandatory elements of
that standard
