Background
The Spatial Information Services Stack (SISS) is a suite of tools for
spatial data interoperability. SISS uses OGC standards, GML application
schema, modelling tools, vocabulary support services and registries.
AuScope is deploying the SISS in multiple Australian Government agencies
and research organisations. AuScope has developed a Web portal to
demonstrate the infrastructure, and to encourage the development of
other third party client tools. As SISS is built on open source
technologies others are encouraged to use the stack and assist in its
development.
SISS builds on existing technologies including GeoServer, FullMoon and
GeoNetwork. AuScope has made enhancements to support complex application
schemas like GeoSciML and WaterML, and quality improvements to raise the
quality of service level and ensure stack completeness. For example, the
AuScope portal uses GeoNetwork to discover services, and the application
schemas supported by GeoServer are developed and tested with FullMoon.
SISS provides a complete solution to develop, establish and maintain OGC
standards compliant infrastructures.The development of SISS was funded
by NCRIS through the NeAT initiative.
Workshop goal
The goal of the workshop is to show how communities can use SISS to
provide transparent interoperable access to spatial data and knowledge
about Australia.

Space is limited so places will be allocated to ensure representation
from the greatest number of organisations in each session.
Kind regards,
