Location Industry Working Group
The Location Industry Working Group (IWG) is a partnership between companies with a strong interest in location technologies.
Location technology is technology for tracking, analysing, and visualizing data expressing relative location measured in some dimensions.
The IWG is currently forming and is expected to formally launch Q3-2012. This date may change due to strong interest.
Initiative Goals
This IWG exists to enable organizations to:
- Collaborate on location related research
- Share costs, risks, and benefits to develop and sustain reusable commodity & innovative location technology
- Drive increased adoption of location technology, and adoption of reference implementation standards based technology
- Participate in joint marketing, events
