Abbreviation Schemes

This page lists potential Abbreviation Schemes.

Selection of abbreviation schemes to use with OGC API Standards will involve a series of rounds of voting. At each vote, the abbreviation scheme(s) that receives the least number of votes will be removed from the next round of voting. The rounds of voting will continue until there is one abbreviation scheme left.

Voting in Round 4 begins at 06:00am EDT on July 5th, 2021 and will close at 06:00am EDT on July 13th, 2021. Cast your vote at https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1JNg-TrtN53SQ3Xd9ZZKxnB_OQ1oUkL_DKaDl6NBTNVw/viewform?edit_requested=false
