Overview

This standard defines requirements for how platform neutral and platform specific specification of services shall be created, in order to allow for one service to be specified independently of one or more underlying distributed computing platforms. The standard defines requirements for a further mapping from platform neutral to platform specific service specifications, in order to enable conformant and interoperable service implementations. This International Standard addresses the Meta:Service foundation of the ISO geographic information reference model described in ISO 19101-1:2014, Clause 6 and Clause 8, respectively. This standard differs from DIN EN ISO 19119:2011-07 as follows: a) The revised version of the standard defines a set of requirements and the associated abstract tests for the specification of services according to the reference model for distributed processing in open systems (RM-OPD) according to the enterprise, processing, information, development and technology view. This new standard now specifies a set of requirements for categorizing services according to a classification scheme (taxonomy) for services. b) The metadata describing services has been transferred to ISO 19115-1, and is therefore no longer part of this standard. This standard has been prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 211 "Geographic information/Geomatics" in cooperation with Technical Committee CEN/TC 287 "Geoinformation", the secretariat of which is held by BSI (United Kingdom). The working committee responsible for the German cooperation is Working Committee NA 005-03-03 AA "Geoinformation" at DIN Standards Committee Building and Civil Engineering (NABau), which has been set up as a mirror committee to CEN/TC 287 and ISO/TC 211.
