Research in Action

COSI drives the adoption of OGC standards by showcasing the power of interoperability across sectors. 

COSI Initiatives have tackled a wide range of global challenges, from disaster resilience to marine spatial data infrastructures, smart cities and indoor mapping. Here are a just a few recent examples: 

  • Mapping landslide, flood and pandemic impacts in Peru’s Rimac and Piura River basins.
  • Assessing the effectiveness of the OGC API — Records standard in managing Arctic resources, exploring the use of navigational data and standards for improved coastal resilience in the Caribbean and creating 3D views of coastal inundation in Singapore.
  • Developing a standardized health data model and SDI to improve early warning, response, and recovery efforts in future health emergencies.
