Sprint: Open Science × OGC RAINBOW × OGC APIs
December 11
About the Sprint
A Hands-On Workshop Driving the Next Wave of Geospatial Interoperability
Interoperability has always been at the heart of geospatial innovation. Yet for many data providers, achieving it can feel like a costly challenge—until collaboration, reuse, and scalability reveal its real value.
OGC RAINBOW helps bridge that gap. It’s a full-spectrum interoperability methodology designed to make integration faster, simpler, and more cost-effective. By leveraging reusable OGC Building Blocks, RAINBOW enables teams to design, test, and publish interoperable APIs—sharing reliable, well-documented data and workflows seamlessly across platforms and clouds.
What to Expect
Join leading experts from national mapping agencies, research organizations, and industry innovators to explore how to:
- Streamline API development, documentation, and testing through OGC RAINBOW and OGC Building Blocks.
- Transform a prototype national data service into a scalable, interoperable web API ready for production.
- Apply Testbed Europe’s emerging methods to build pan-regional maps and modern data infrastructures.
- Foster collaboration between the Overture Maps Foundation and public agencies to advance open data ecosystems.
- Align Open Science principles—transparency, reproducibility, and reuse—with RAINBOW’s methodology to accelerate innovation.
Together, we’ll co-create and test the next generation of interoperable, reusable, and open geospatial architectures—paving the way for a trusted and connected future.
Be part of this interactive, hands-on workshop and help shape what’s next in open, trusted geospatial systems.
Registration closes this Sunday, Nov 30.
