Description
At today's Infrastructure Framework Subcommittee meeting, the members discussed the current status of the common components, namely the Common Types, the CIQ Profile and the SimpleFeatures Profile. The following topics were discussed:
1. TOPIC: What is the status of our common components? (Answer: The Common Types, including schema and document, are almost ready for recommended approval by EM TC. The CIQ Profile has a schema from Don and Jeff is drafting a document. The SimpleFeatures schema and document are being drafted by Tim and Lew. )
2. TOPIC: What is the status of the SimpleFeatures Profile? (Answer: Draft is underway, but one issue is the need to create the SimpleFeatures schema, since OGC has changed its policy and currently does not offer a schema. )
3. TOPIC: Should we keep WeatherInfoType as a simple string in the Common Types or remove it until we get a better version? (Answer: Members discussed the issue. Benefits of removing include avoiding confusion, but benefits of keeping include serving as a placeholder for awareness of the need. Ran out of time before matter resolved.)
