"Since OGC already has Coverage DWG and CIS standard, this document can be brought to the WG for discussion on the conformance issue with current OGC standards/implementations."

Comments are being addressed in this repo by the CoverageJSON Task Team under the auspices of the Coverage SWG. The Task Team regularly meets adjacent to the CoverageSWG on Wednesdays

  1. Work to tighten up the specification, without substantially changing it, is being developed by the originators.

  2. A schema has been developed to ensure formal testing can be performed.

  3. A detailed comparision with other Coverage payload formats, such as GeoTIFF and CIS JSON, has started, in this repo, to identify future developments of CoverageJSON within the OGC SWG framework with a target of convergence with OGC Coverages definitions.

  4. There is currently no evidence that CoverageJSON deviates significantly from the ISO19123 abstract standard.

Some of the encountered issues highlight the confusion over conceptual aspects of Abstract Topic 6 / ISO 19123 (conceptual) standard versus the logical model and the physical CIS JSON encoding defined in the CIS standard.

CoverageJSON Task Team 2022-02-09 agreed issue of discussion on the conformance issue with current OGC standards/implementations has been addressed.
