For data providers (e.g., RAs and/or their RCOOS partners) who are just getting started in the “system of systems” concept and want to become interoperable, OOSTethys will provide a community-developed set of software tools and guidance documents (i.e., cook books) that show data providers how to get started using standards-based data-exchange capabilities, in particular, it shows them how to get started using “web services for interoperable ocean science,” which was the title OOS Tech 2005. OOSTethys is also a forum for the more tech-savvy developers (from MMI & SCOOP and some of the other regional OOSs) who are experts in the standards for web services. The experts develop the (open source) reference implementations for others to use.
