Welcome to the GitHub organization for the **Open Source for OGC API - Connected Systems (OS4CSAPI)** Initiative. This activity brings together open-source communities and implementations to accelerate adoption of the [OGC API – Connected Systems v1](https://www.ogc.org/standards/ogc-api-connected-systems/) standard through transparent, contributor-friendly workflows.

15+
- [Discussions](https://github.com/OS4CSAPI/os4csapi-meta/discussions): Open forum for planning, Q&A, and standards alignment
