Resources and Guides for Earth Observation Application Packages

This project includes several repositories designed to provide guidance and training material for developing and executing Earth Observation (EO) Application Packages in compliance with the OGC Best Practice for Earth Observation Application Package.

The repositories aim to:

• Help developers create portable and deployable EO applications using the Common Workflow Language (CWL)
• provide an overview of the CWL, its key concepts
• Show how to build a CWL-based EO application using a practical examples then used in several execution scenarios.

The repositories are listed below, and described in detailed in the Repositories section.

Application Package and CWL as a solution for EO portability

This module provides an light introduction to CWL as a solution for the portability of EO applications.
