3D Geospatial M&S Summit 3 Program and Results

25 April 2018
In conjunction with the GEOINT 2018 Symposium
Tampa Convention Center, Tampa Florida
0800-1000

Event Summary:

The USGIF M&S Working Group hosted the third in a series of 3D Geospatial M&S related summit meetings co-sponsored by the USGIF, the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC), and the Simulation Interoperability Standards Organization (SISO). The purpose of this summit series is to establish a continuous learning culture across the geospatial and M&S domains that leads to greater interoperability and progress towards our vision of a global model of the earth. The focus of this summit was several fold: 1) to review recent progress made on advancement of interoperability, 2) to discuss the key challenges that lay ahead; and 3) to provide details on a roadmap of current and planned initiatives designed to stimulate robust experimentation across the community regarding new levels of interoperability.
