+<h2>Open issues</h2>
+
+<p>
+ Based on early use experiences with the vocabulary the working group is considering
+ some clarifications and modifications to the specification. Each of
+ the candidate areas under consideration are listed as issues
+ below. Note that there is, as yet, no commitment that all (or indeed any) of these areas
+ will be addressed by the working group.
+</p>
+
+ <div class='issue'>
+ <h3><a href="http://www.w3.org/2011/gld/track/issues/29">Issue-29</a>:
+ Criteria for well-formedness</h3>
+ <p>Specify additional <em>well-formedness</em> criteria to which
+ cube-publishers should adhere to facilitate tool interoperability.</p>
+ </div>
+
+ <div class='issue'>
+ <h3><a href="http://www.w3.org/2011/gld/track/issues/30">Issue-30</a>:
+ Declaring relations between cubes</h3>
+ <p>Consider extending the vocabulary to support declaring
+ relations between data cubes (or between measures within a cube).</p>
+ </div>
+
+ <div class='issue'>
+ <h3><a href="http://www.w3.org/2011/gld/track/issues/31">Issue-31</a>:
+ Supporting aggregation for other than SKOS hierarchies</h3>
+ <p>The Data Cube vocabulary allows hierarchical code lists to be
+ used as dimensions values by means of SKOS. Consider whether to
+ extend this to support use of other hierarchical relations
+ (e.g. geo-spatial containment) without requiring mapping to SKOS.</p>
+ </div>
+
+ <div class='issue'>
+ <h3><a href="http://www.w3.org/2011/gld/track/issues/32">Issue-32</a>:
+ Relationship to ISO 19156 - Observations & Measurements</h3>
+ <p>
+ One use case for the Data Cube vocabulary is for the publication
+ of observational, sensor network and forecast data
+ sets. Existing standards for such publication include OGC
+ Observations & Measurements (ISO 19156). There are multiple ways
+ that Data Cube can be mapped to the logical model of O&M.
+ Consider making an explicit statement of the ways in which Data
+ Cube can be related to O&M as guidance for users seeking to
+ work with both specifications.</p>
+ </div>
+
+ <div class='issue'>
+ <h3><a href="http://www.w3.org/2011/gld/track/issues/33">Issue-33</a>:
+ Collections of observations and well-formedness of slices</h3>
+ <p>
+ Experience with Data Cube has shown that publishers often wish
+ to publish slices comprising arbitrary collections of
+ observations.
+ Consider supporting this usage, either through a clarification
+ of <code>qb:Slice</code> or through an additional collection mechanism.</p>
+ </div>
+
+ <div class='issue'>
+ <h3><a href="http://www.w3.org/2011/gld/track/issues/34">Issue-34</a>:
+ Clarify or drop qb:subslice</h3>
+ <p>
+ Use of <code>qb:subslice</code> in abbreviated datasets can result
+ in ambiguity. Consider
+ clarifying or deprecating <code>qb:subslice</code>.</p>
