i. Preface

The primary goal of this profile is to capture the semantics of hydrological observational data for data exchange. This will allow hydrological information systems to communicate data between systems and to end users. ii. Submitting Organizations The following organizations submitted this Implementation Profile to the Open Geospatial Consortium Inc.: a CSIRO b San Diego Supercomputer Center c Australian Bureau of Meteorology d Geological Survey of Canada, Natural Resources Canada e USGS f KISTERS AG g NOAA h Deltares i Federal Waterways Engineering and Research Institute j disy Informationssysteme GmbH k German Federal Institute of Hydrology l International Office For Water - Sandre OGC 10-126 WaterML 2.0 Copyright © 2012 Open Geospatial Consortium x iii.
