Bonjour Everyone,
Apologies for cross-posting.
All the presentations are now also available on the OGC Hydro Domain Working group website along with the meeting recordings : https://external.ogc.org/twiki_public/HydrologyDWG/WaterQualityWorkshopS...
Following the workshop we finalized the set-up of the Water Quality Interoperability Experiment. I'll send a dedicated e-mail about its kick-off in the coming days.
Many thanks to the WMO team for organizing this great meeting.
A bientôt
