2021-10-01, 08:00–08:30, Córdoba

ZOO-Project is a Web Processing Service (WPS) platform implemented as an Open Source project following the OGC standards. It was released under an MIT X-11 style license and is currently in incubation at OSGeo. It provides a WPS compliant developer-friendly framework easing the creation and chaining of WPS Web services. This presentation gives a brief overview of the platform and summarizes new capabilities and enhancements available in the new version. A brief summary of the Open Source project history with its direct link with FOSS4G will be presented. The new release comes up with a brand new OGC API - Processes (OAPI-P) support. The new functionalities available in the latest release will be presented and described, further highlight their interests for application developers and users. Various use of OSGeo software and others, such as GDAL, GEOS, PostGIS, pgRouting, GRASS, OTB, SAGA-GIS, as WPS or OAPI-P services through the ZOO-Project will be presented. Then, the ongoing developments and future innovations will be explored.
