Prototype initial register of topic categories #278

Closed ghobona closed 2 months ago

ghobona commented 4 months ago

With the introduction of OGC API - EDR - Part 2: Publish-Subscribe Workflow, there is the possibility on establishing a register of topic categories that could be used for supporting faceting or similar use cases.

The question is which controlled vocabularies could be used for creating an initial set for a topic register (or topic category register).

Some suggestions are:

ISO 19115 topic categories
DGIWG DGIM Groups from Annex F of OGC 15-005r2
WMO Topic Hierarchy

Are there any others?

Closing this Issue because of recent clarification on how topics are expected to be used by the PubSub extension of OGC API - EDR.
