[Noisebridge-discuss] why we should all love the OGC

[munkeyfreenix batcat]

Given the new platform of virtual terrain and omnipresence of GPS, the OGC
(Open-GeoSpatial Consortium) is on par with the EFF and FSF, in my opinion.

Not only are they making standards for open-source GIS and mapping tools,
but now they are defining Sensor Web Enablement to give us all access to
sensors everywhere, via the web.
