Sydney, Australia. Monday 19 January 2009.

The Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC), Australian Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) and the Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) have announced a Climate Change Integration Plugfest to be launched at the FOSS4G conference, 20-23 October 2009. [1]

----
The OGC® is an international consortium of more than 365
companies, government agencies, research organizations, and
universities participating in a consensus process to develop publicly
available geospatial standards. OpenGIS® Standards support
interoperable solutions that "geo-enable" the Web, wireless and
location-based services, and mainstream IT. OGC Standards empower
technology developers to make geospatial information and services
accessible and useful with any application that needs to be
geospatially enabled. Visit the OGC website at
http://www.opengeospatial.org/.

FOSS4G is heralded as the international "gathering of tribes" of open
source geospatial communities, where developers and users show off their
latest software and projects. The theme for 2009 is "User Driven",
highlighting the power of Open Source to solve business problems.

The Open Source Geospatial Foundation (OSGeo) has been created to
support and build the highest-quality open source geospatial software.
The foundation's goal is to encourage the use and collaborative
development of community-led projects, data development and
education.[2]

FOSS4G is the international gathering of open source, geospatial tribes.
The spatial industry is undergoing rapid innovations and the open source
spatial community is one of the forces driving the change. From its
beginnings the FOSS4G conference has been the gathering of the spatial
tribes and has a reputation of being a melting pot for great ideas in
the spatial industry and a catalyst for many successful geospatial
products, standards and protocols. FOSS4G 2009 Sydney will be the
seventh "formal" gathering of the open source geospatial community and
is will focus on the increasing importance of FOSS4G in the
public and private enterprise.

-The CCIP will demonstrate standards based interoperability between geospatial applications based on a Climate Change scenario. It consists of a server with multiple virtual machines, each installed with geospatial applications offering standards based web services. All web services will demonstrate a common dataset, and will be accessed by a range of geospatial client applications installed on client computers.
