<p>Hi everyone!</p>
<p>I hope you are all doing good despite the difficult pandemic
times.</p>
<p>I was thinking we could organize an official "monthly" meetup
this week/month at the usual 3rd Thursday of the week / 7:00 PM
time (April 15).<br>
It has been quite a while since we last did one, although I heard
some of you did get together virtually a few times.</p>
<p>Suggesting Jitsi:</p>
<p> <a href="https://meet.jit.si/OSGeo-Ottawa-April-15-2021" target="_blank">https://meet.jit.si/OSGeo-Ottawa-April-15-2021</a><br>
Password: NotTheFoxAndFeather</p>
<p>although suggestions for an alternative to jitsi are welcome. If
I don't hear otherwise I will be hanging outat the above jitsi.<br>
</p>
<p>Sorry the radio silence over the last few months...<br>
<br>
We have been swamped with work on our <i>Modular OGC API
Workflows</i> project, financed by Natural Resources Canada's
GeoConnections program, which just officially ended at the end of
March.</p>
<p>On this note, that is one of the things I would like to present
to you on Thursday if there is interest.<br>
<br>
A major output of the project is an extension to <i>OGC API -
Processes - Part 3: Workflows and Chaining</i> which allows to:</p>
<p>- connect any dataset served over an OGC API (local or remote) as
an input to a processing workflowm<br>
- connect a nested process (local or remote) as an input to a
process, and<br>
- trigger processing via simple OGC API data requests (e.g. <i>Features,
Coverages, Maps, Tiles</i>...), allowing to access a "virtual"
dataset (result of the processing) just like any other datasets<br>
</p>
<p>One of the thing that was developed as part of our project is a
GDAL driver for this capability from the client-side:</p>
<p> <a href="https://gdal.org/drivers/raster/ogcapi.html" target="_blank">https://gdal.org/drivers/raster/ogcapi.html</a>
<br>
</p>
<p>the driver also implements new support for OGC API - Tiles, Maps
and Coverages in one single unified driver!<br>
Super cool stuff.</p>
<p>This capability is available in the latest development GDAL and
QGIS builds.</p>
<p>Many other contributions to open standards and open source were
made as part of this project, including to pygeoapi, rasdaman, and
of course our cross-platform Ecere SDK.<br>
</p>
<p>Looking forward to tell you more about it, and also hear what you
have all been up to!</p>
<p>Best regards,</p>
-Jerome
