Abstract

Using Geospatial Web Service to Transform Weather, Water & Climate Information
Track: Government
Authors: Kari Sheets, Priscilla Vasquez

The National Weather Service (NWS) partners have requested NWS products and services are provided in Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) standard web service formats. NWS developed, implemented and is expanding an operational environment for hosting these geospatial map services. This consistent provision and communication of IDSS information across the NWS will help transform weather, water and climate information communication to support a Weather Ready Nation.
