i. Preface

The OpenGIS Sensor Planning Service SPS Implementation Specification is designed to enable an interoperable service by which a client can determine collection feasibility for a desired set of collection requests for one or more sensorsplatforms, or a client may submit collection requests directly to these sensorsplatforms. Specifically, the document specifies interfaces for requesting information describing the capabilities of a SPS 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 cancelling such a request, and for requesting information about further OGC Web services that provide access to the data collected by the requested task.
