The OGC validator is an essential tool that helps organizations better implement service interfaces, encodings and clients that adhere to OGC standards. Passing the test and getting OGC certified helps organizations distinguishing their product in the market place.
Achieving OGC certification is extremely important to us as an organization - we are proud to have more than 20 products compliant with OGC standards.
Developers, product and quality assurance managers have been using this free validator for several years.
The validator can be used by OGC and non OGC members as often as they like to test their implementations of OGC standards.
The source of the engine and the tests are available at GitHub. The documentation of the engine is available here. The CITE forum provides a place to ask questions and help developers pass the tests.The OGC Validator has the following features:
To apply for certification, visit the OGC implementation database, register your product and provide details about the validation results.
