THE CURRENT STATUS AND FUTURE PLAN OF THE ISO 19130 PROJECT

In March 2001 ISO TC 211 approved a project to develop an international standard: ISO 19130Sensor and Data Models for Imagery and Gridded Data. Since August 2002 when the project status was reported at the ISPRS Commission II Symposium, the project has made significant progress. The standard has been advanced from the working draft (WD) stage to the committee draft (CD) stage. This paper discusses the current status of the ISO 19130 project, the content of ISO 19130 CD version 1, and the future plan for both ISO 19130 and new remote sensing standards. * Corresponding author
