- A year of Joint OGC-ISO ARD SWG teleconferences
- Pace of progress incompatible with the expectations, deadlines, and processes imposed upon it.
- SWG has experienced multiple core challenges
- Proposal to strategically pause the Joint OGC-ISO ARD SWG activities has been tabled
- Due to rapid technological development, current efforts to define ARD broadly would benefit greatly by shifting from a standards approach to a more open source specification approach.
- Allows agile development on an unrestricted timeline which can be reintroduced to OGC and ISO standards processes after it has been iteratively improved, implemented, and has seen adoption by real-world user communities and data providers.
- With the CEOS-ARD Strategy we maintain leadership of the satellite Earth observation Analysis Ready Data concept through CEOS-ARD, which should serve as the basis for more formal standards at the appropriate time.
