PROGRAM ANNOUNCED

  _____  

OASIS is please to host the "Emergency Interoperability (EI) Summit" in
Baltimore, MD, USA, 29 September-1 October, 2009. The Summit is part of 2009
National <http://www.iir.com/registration/niem/>  Information Exchange Model
(NIEM) National Training Event. During the Summit, industry experts will
demonstrate that there is much to be gained from interoperable software
solutions, not only in terms of cost reduction and operational effectiveness
for the Emergency Management (EM) community, but also in terms of
marketability and access to a broader market for software tool developers.

 

OASIS EM standards play a key role in the coherent framework for EM data
interoperability. The OASIS EI Summit will demonstrate the value of these
interoperable solutions to participants from the worldwide EM
community--industry, institutions and government agencies.    

 

Sessions at the OASIS EI Summit will cover critical emergency management
standards including:

*         Common Alerting Protocol (CAP), the open standard for alerting and
warning messages in any medium. The wide variety of CAP implementations,
Integrated Public Alert and Warning System (IPAWS), work to-date on CAP 1.2
and innovative uses of CAP will also be addressed.



*         Emergency Digital Exchange Language (EDXL),  the "umbrella" for a
number of emergency data message types including resource queries and
requests, situation status and forecasts, financial and personnel data,
message routing instructions and the like.  Presentations will detail the
family of EDXL open standards and specifications including:  Distribution
Element (EDXL-DE), Resource Messaging (EDXL-RM), and Hospital Availability
Exchange (EDXL-HAVE). A preview of the Situation Reporting (EDXL-SitRep)
specification currently under development will also be featured.  

OASIS EI Summit Roundtables will foster open dialogues on the roadmap of
emergency data standards, as well as coordinated efforts between OASIS,
NIEM, and other organizations.  Attendees of the Summit will gain a clearer
understanding of the interoperable solutions being implemented today, the
value of mutually supportive standards for information sharing, and insights
into how this information ecosystem can benefit us all.  

 

Come witness real-world interoperability demonstrations and listen to the
experts on what this all actually means to the EM community.

INTEROPERABILITY DEMONSTRATIONS

  _____  

The OASIS EI Summit will showcase interoperable applications and tools that
support CAP and EDXL.  Demonstrations will address the operational and
economic benefits, as well as coherent frameworks that enable a more
accurate, rapid, coordinated emergency response.   

 

Vendors interested in demonstrating standards-compliant products in the EI
Summit should contact Dee Schur <mailto:dee.schur@oasis-open.org> .
