OpenSearch-geo is a standard for integrating geospatial data discovery services. It allows for common access to geospatial data across various web services. The document discusses OpenSearch-geo and its history, compares the community standard to the OGC proposal, examines using web services as geospatial data sources, describes a generic client implementation, and discusses integrating OpenSearch-geo at the catalogue level.
