OWS-3 Network

The OWS-3 Network was initially created from the developments of the OGC Web Services, Phase 3 (OWS-3) Testbed. Building on previous work in other OGC initiatives and technical working groups, OWS-3 Testbed participants worked collaboratively to extend the OGC baseline to enable an interoperable, multi-source decision support environment. The OWS-3 Network supports persistent demonstration and research regarding a wide variety of issues of geospatial interoperability. The OWS-3 Testbed was designed to support several scenarios. These scenarios are a good starting point for a team using the network to conduct research or a demonstration. The OWS-3 Network will support demonstration scenarios limited only by the creativity of the team developing the demonstration.
