<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=black face=Arial><span style='font-size:
10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:black'>Answer: Developing a “Proto
Standard” is the very first stage of development for any new standard and
is only the beginning of a very open, inclusive (and long) process. The January
18<sup>th</sup> comment deadline is only for this first round of review. After
that the document, with revisions to reflect comments, will go thru multiple
additional comment periods, draft stages, and reviews before being presented at
a Standards Forum and then considered for endorsement by OGIC. The Standards
Development Effort document outlines this procedure: <a

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 color=black face=Arial><span style='font-size:

by the Orthoimagery FIT. But wait, you say you are a member of this FIT and didn’t
know this was happening? No worries – remember this is just the very
first stage of development and only your first of many opportunities to
participate. The Framework Program funds development projects and we use these
projects to start, continue and augment all manner of FIT related activities.
In this case FIT required that the Historic Photo Catalog project proposal
include development of an Aerial Imagery Index Standard. The two project
proposers (Emmor Nile, Brady Callahan) and I (Milt Hill) collaborated on this
effort. You can view that proposal here: <a
