| Definitionskos:definition | Data cubes, multidimensional arrays of data, are used frequently these days, but differences in design, interfaces, and handling of temporal characteristics are causing interoperability challenges for anyone interacting with more than one solution. To address these challenges, the Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) and the Group on Earth Observation (GEO) invited global data cube experts to discuss state-of-the-art and way forward at the “Towards Data Cube Interoperability” workshop. The two-day workshop, conducted in late April 2021, started with a series of pre-recorded position statements by data cube providers and data cube users. These videos served as the entry points for intense discussions that not only produced a new definition of the term ‘data cube’ (by condensing and shifting emphasize on what is known as the six faces model), but also pointed out a wide variety of expectations with regards to data cube behaviour and characteristics as well as data cube usage patterns. This report summarizes the various perspectives and discusses the next steps towards efficient usage of data cubes. It starts with the new definition of the term Data Cube, as this new understanding drives several recommendations discussed later in this report. The report includes further discussion that followed the actual workshop, mainly conducted in the context of the Geo Data Cube task in OGC Testbed-17. |
