Implementers of GeoTIFF v1.1 are invited to validate their products using the new test suite.

The Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) is excited to announce that the Executable Test Suite (ETS) for version 1.1 of the OGC GeoTIFF Standard has been approved by the OGC Membership. Products that implement the OGC GeoTIFF 1.1 Standard and pass the tests in the ETS can now be certified as OGC Compliant.

Implementers are invited to validate their products using the new test suite, which is available on the OGC validator tool. Testing involves submitting an OGC GeoTIFF 1.1 file produced by the product being assessed. These tests typically take only 5-10 minutes to complete. Once a product has passed the test, the implementer can submit an application to OGC for use of the OGC Compliant trademark on their product.
