Spatial Data on the Web Working Group

The mission of the Spatial Data on the Web Working Group is to clarify and formalize the relevant standards landscape around spatial data on the Web. This includes: (1) to determine how spatial information can best be integrated with other data on the Web; (2) to determine how machines and people can discover that different facts in different datasets relate to the same place, especially when 'place' is expressed in different ways and at different levels of granularity; (3) to identify and assess existing methods and tools and then create a set of best practices for their use; (4) where desirable, to complete the standardization of informal technologies already in widespread use.
