OASIS Two specifications developed by the OASIS Emergency Management Technical Committee have advanced toward standardization, while work commences on a third XML-related standard for messaging. The Emergency Management TC was chartered to create incident and emergency-related standards for data interoperability. The Common Alerting Protocol (CAP) is an open standard for coordinating and integrating public warning systems; CAP version 1.1 was adopted as an OASIS Standard on October 1, 2005. Working closely with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Emergency Interoperability Consortium (EIC), members of the TC are collaborating on the design and development of a suite of specifications under the name Emergency Data Exchange Language (EDXL). EDXL is a broad initiative to create an integrated framework for a wide range of emergency data exchange standards to support operations, logistics, planning and finance. EM TC participates in the design of format specifications (e.g., XML Schemas) based upon technical requirements provided by DHS and EIC.
