Get Involved
The IT&I committee provides a venue for a monthly community webinar on current Information Technology and Interoperability topics. In early years, the webinar series was known as the "IT&I Rants and Raves" a title the committee is bringing back starting in 2023.
Rants and Raves are designed to get smart people to share insightful, provocative views of what's great and what's not about technology and interoperability in modern Earth science. We welcome, high energy talks on personal pet peeves: topics that you can't believe in this day and age we're still dealing with, or solutions that you can't believe that in this day and age more people aren't using.

Improving standards and documentation publishing methods: Why can’t we cross the finish line?
OGC and the rest of the Standards community have been promising for YEARS that our Standards and supporting documentation will be more friendly to the users that need this material the most. Progress has been made on many fronts, but why are we still not finished with a promise made in 2015 that all OGC Standards will be available in implementer-friendly views first, ugly virtual printed paper second?This topic bugs me as much as it bugs our whole community. Some of the problems are institutional (often from our Government members across the globe), others are due to lack of resources, but I think that most are due to a lack of clear reward to motivate people to do things differently.Major progress is being made in some areas. The OGC APIs have landing pages that include focused and relevant content for users/implementers and it takes some effort to find the owning Standard. OGC Developer Resources are growing quickly with sample code, running examples, and multiple views of API resources in OpenAPI, Swagger, and ReDoc.
ESIP Vision
To be a leader in promoting the collection, stewardship and use of Earth science data, information and knowledge that are responsive to societal needs.
Information Technology and Interoperability Committee
The Information Technology and Interoperability Committee of the ESIP Federation is a standing committee created to:
- ensure that data, information and services can be readily exchanged and integrated to improve Earth science data, information, products and services; and
- encourage the use of standards and protocols relevant to interoperability;
- encourage the use of best information technology practices to ensure the quality, usability and breadth of standards and protocols relevant to interoperability.
