OGC 10-135 EO Satellite Tasking Extension for SPS

i. Abstract

The SPS 2.0 Earth Observation Satellite Tasking Extension Standard specifies extensions to the OGC Sensor Planning Service SPS 2.0 Interface Standard. The SPS configuration proposed in this extension is intended to support the programming process of Earth Observation EO sensor systems. This standard describes a consistent SPS configuration that can be supported by many satellite data providers, most of whom have existing facilities for the management of these programming requests. The resulting extended web service interface can be used for determining the feasibility of an intended sensor planning request, for submitting such a request, for inquiring about the status of such a request, for updating or canceling such a request, and for requesting information on means of obtaining the data collected by the requested task. ii. Keywords ogcdoc, sps, earth observation, hma, eo iii. Preface This document defines an extension of the version 2.0 of the Sensor Planning Service SPS Interface Standard. It is applicable to the tasking of earth observation satellites. This standard has been developed in the context of the Heterogeneous Mission Accessibility HMA project initiated by European Space Agency ESA. The goal of this extension is to define a coherent web service interface for sending requests for future acquisition of data products to various types of space borne earth observation systems. Suggested additions, changes, and comments on this draft report are welcome and encouraged. Such suggestions may be submitted by email message or by making suggested changes in an edited copy of this document. iv. Document terms and definitions This document uses the standard terms defined in [OGC 06-121], which is based on the ISOIEC Directives, Part 2. Rules for the structure and drafting of International Standards. In particular, the word “shall” not “must” is the verb form used to indicate a requirement to be strictly followed to conform to this standard. vi EO Satellite Tasking Extension for SPS OGC 10-135
