News Industry Text Format NITF is an XML specification published by the International Press Telecommunications Council that is designed to standardize the content and structure of individual text news articles. The NITF specification defines a standard way to mark up an article s content and structure, as well as a wide variety of metadata that different organizations may choose to use. Additionally, multimedia can be associated with articles, although NITF does not allow for layout of multimedia within article text. ref Interactive NITF Documentation &mdash http www.nitf.org IPTC NITF 3.5 documentation nitf.html ref Since NITF files are XML, they can be easily parsed, as well as transformed via XSL Transformations XSLT to other formats. The format is widely used across the news industry. Newspapers The New York Times , among others , news agencies such as Associated Press and Agence France Presse , and archival services such as LexisNexis use NITF for inter agency transmission of news as well as internal transmission and storage. ref http www.nitf.org users.php NITF Sample Users Bot generated title ref NITF complements NewsML G2 &mdash an IPTC XML format for bundling and transmitting news.

NewsML G2 is an XML multimedia news exchange format standard of the IPTC , the International Press Telecommunications Council. As part of the IPTC G2 Standards family, NewsML G2 acts as an envelope for one or more news items such as a text article, a photo, or a video clip or a structured package of links to news items, and contains metadata to describe the relationships between the items. NewsML G2 is a business to business standard that is intended to help news agency news agencies create complex packages of multimedia news into a single cohesive bundle. Unlike its predecessor, NewsML 1.x, NewsML G2 uses standardized XML building blocks and metadata . These building blocks are used in other IPTC G2 Standards, so that system programmers can reuse their code. Like NewsML , NewsML G2 is not a text or image mark up format it has no way to mark paragraphs or headlines, for example. Instead, it is an envelope and organizer for one or more files of almost any type. For text article formatting, IPTC recommends the News Industry Text Format NITF .

PubSub was a prospective search engine for searching blog s, press releases, Usenet , USGS earthquake alerts, SEC filings and FAA Flight Delay information. The site, founded in 2002 by Bob Wyman and Salim Ismail , operated by storing a user s search term, making it a subscription , and checking it against posts on blogs which ping the search engine. When a new match was found, the user was notified, even if it occurred months after the initial search. This feature led PubSub to call itself a matching engine . It also checks incoming Usenet posts, USGS earthquake alerts, press release via News Industry Text Format NITF , SEC filings and FAA flight delay information. Results could be read on the service s website, or on an optional sidebar, available for both Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox , written by Malcolm Pollack and Duncan A. Werner respectively, or via RSS .

A remote sensing application is a software application that processes remote sensing data. Remote sensing applications are similar to graphics software , but they enable generating geographic information from satellite and airborne sensor data. Remote sensing applications read specialized file formats that contain sensor image data, georeferencing information, and sensor metadata . Some of the more popular remote sensing file formats include GeoTIFF , National Imagery Transmission Format NITF , JPEG 2000 , ECW file format , MrSID , Hierarchical Data Format HDF , and NetCDF . Remote Sensing applications perform many features including Change Detection Determine the changes from images taken at different times of the same area Orthorectification Warp an image to its location on the earth. Spectral Analysis For example, using non visible parts of the electromagnetic spectrum to determine if a forest is healthy Image Classification Categorization of pixels based on reflectance into different land cover classes e.g. Supervised classification, Unsupervised classification and Object Oriented Classification Many remote sensing applications are built using common remote sensing toolkits, like GDAL and http www.ossim.org OSSIM .

The Open Geospatial Consortium Web Coverage Service Interface Standard WCS provides an Interface computer science interface allowing requests for Geography geographical coverage data coverages across the World Wide Web web using platform independent calls. The coverages are objects or images in a geographical area, whereas the Web Map Service WMS interface or online mapping portals like Google Maps return only an image, which end users cannot edit or Geographic information system Spatial analysis with GIS spatially analyze . The OGC membership defined and maintains the WCS specification. GeoServer serves as the Reference implementation computing reference implementation of the standard. Overview The basic Web Coverage Service allows querying and retrieval of coverages. A WCS describes discovery, query, or data transformation operations. The client generates the request and posts it to a web feature server using HTTP. The web feature server then executes the request. The WCS specification uses HTTP as the distributed computing platform, although this is not a hard requirement. There are two encodings defined for WCS operations XML amenable to HTTP POST SOAP Keyword Value pairs amenable to HTTP GET Remote procedure call In the taxonomy of Web Services , WCS is best categorized as a non RESTful RPC type service. Data Data may be available in several formats, such as DTED , GeoTIFF , HDF EOS , or National Imagery Transmission Format NITF . Several types of data layers are supported series of points, such as locations of samples regular grid of pixels or points, which might represent a photo set of segmented curves, often used for road paths set of Thiessen polygon s, used to analyse spatially distributed data such as rainfall measurements triangulated irregular network TIN , often used for terrain models Ranges of information may be attached to locations, such as average wind speed or yield by crop type.
