    21 While !MapGuide's support for enterprise standards (OGC), and KML is well established, there are several areas where we could take a leading edge stance.  These enhancements all around Web 2.0 data interchange techniques: Tile Map Service (TMS), and GeoRSS.  These could be initially written as PHP scripts and then brought into the core code base if desired at a later point.

    2521The [http://wiki.osgeo.org/index.php/Tile_Map_Service_Specification TMS Specification] provides a well documented method for sharing pyramid-based map tile caches between multiple mapping applications.  This scales to public use much better than WMS, and allows extension of !MapGuide's internal tile caching service to external applications.

    3129Adoption of [http://www.georss.org/ GeoRSS] as a simple method of sharing spatial information is growing rapidly.  There are several compelling use cases for this.  At the municipal level, it would be desirable to generate feeds of spatially related information such as recent fire calls, approved building permits, and road closures.
