TISA makes New Evaluation Kit available on GitLab

October 4, 2022

The TISA Product Committee has prepared a TPEG2 evaluation kit and published it on its GitLab server. The aim is to provide an easy entry to the basic functionalities and design principles of TPEG2 technology, hence make it accessible to a broader audience beyond the TISA membership. Potential users are organisations that have heard of TPEG and wish to explore details without implementing the whole set of ISO standards, or universities that wish to use it for training/education purposes. The evaluation kit contains the TEC and EAW applications plus TMC, GLR and a basic OLR (only geographic) location referencing. The evaluation kit is freely accessible under a BSD-3 type license together with some sample data for TEC and EAW here:

TISA would like to acknowledge the contributions from:

  • Teun Hendriks, for providing large parts of the code base and support during the implementation
  • Abel Gabor, for updating the code base to Python 3, commenting and thoroughly testing the code, as well as for packaging the kit together with installation instructions
  • Luka Krevs, for facilitating the Product Committee internal discussions and the decision-making process, as well as for preparing the GitLab server and coordinating all the work
