Earth Observation data, as one element of the rapidly expanding world of Big Data, holds the potential to assist in addressing many of the societal and environmental problems facing humanity. Standards, especially community-developed open standards, are an important part of the solution. This paper describes the activities of the IEEE GRSS Standards for Earth Observations Technical Committee in developing standards to improve accessibility and interpretability of data from several kinds of remote sensing technologies.
