It has been a while since this year’s FOSS4G-Europe conference took place in Bremen; however, we would like to share our presentations and experiences in this blog post. Three members of 52°North staff attended the FOSS4G-E, which was conveniently located in the nearby city of Bremen, and talked about diverse topics involving INSPIRE, the WPS standard, collaborative software development, teaching, JavaScript, and more.more >
52°North updates licenses for WPS and XML schema bindings
In the past weeks 52°North has updated the licenses of two projects to facilitate their usage by switching over to a non-copyleft license. The project 52n-commons-xml was switched completely to the Apache Software License Version 2.0. The internal API and dependent code from the 52°North WPS project was also moved to the Apache 2.0 license. The implementation of this API, however remains under GPL v2. We hope this will allow more users to integrate our work into their architectures and source code projects. Below is a short description of why and how we did this.more >

WPS at FOSSGIS 2014
Two weeks ago at this year’s FOSSGIS conference, I presented some news regarding the 52°North WPS project and also about the OGC WPS standard.
News from the WPS project
I talked about the move to GitHub and the new project procedures that accompany this move.
I also presented the lightweight JavaScript WPS client that was developed in the GeoViQua project.
You can find more information about it here: wps-js.
I showed the new admin application that was developed during last year’s Google Summer of Code.
This was presented in several blog posts before and will hopefully be included in a future WPS release.
The next topic was the current developments in OGC Testbed (OWS) 10, namely the RDF (Resource Description Framework) provenance encoding that was developed within the project. To learn about the basics of provenance in our context, you can have a look in this OGC Public Engineering Report(ER). The ER sums up the developments of the previous testbed, where we implemented XML-based provenance information as addidtional WPS output.
