Web Coverage Service 2.0 Interface Standard - Earth Observation Application Profile

The OGC Web Coverage Service (WCS) Application Profile - Earth Observation (EO- WCS), defines a profile of WCS 2.0 [OGC 09-110r4] for use on Earth Observation data.

About

This GitHub repository was originally extracted from the Microsoft Word version of the approved OGC® Web Coverage Service 2.0 Interface Standard - Earth Observation Application Profile (EO-WCS) version 1.0.

The repository tracks the latest version of the standard as it evolves. Pull requests for fixes are appreciated, and new functionality will still be considered even though version 1.0 has been adopted. The specification is done in asciidoc a format supported by GitHub, similar to markdown but with some features that make it better for specifications, like automatic section numbering.
