Test it with our MIM 7 Compliance Testing Platform!

In an ideal world, all organisations would seamlessly share systems and services. However, differing needs create interoperability challenges. Minimal Interoperability Mechanisms (MIMs) address this by offering a vendor-neutral, technology-agnostic framework that supports collaboration and innovation in smart cities. Supported by Open & Agile Smart Cities & Communities (OASC) www.oascities.org and approved by Living-in.EU through MIMs Plus. ​

​Why Test Your MIM 7 Compliance?​

MIM7 focuses on providing minimal interoperability mechanisms for geospatial data, a key component of smart cities. Aligning with MIM7 ensures you stay at the forefront of interoperability.

Supported by the city of Riga as the champion and sponsor, and in partnership with OASC, INSPIRE, and Kereval, we aim to guide you on your path toward geospatial data interoperability and help you assess your progress. 

This is just the beginning

The suite of tests at the moment is focused on OGC standards and will help you test your data content regarding GET Capabilities, GET Conformance API Features, and GeoPackage testing. For each test suite, technical, semantic, and syntactic levels of interoperability are tested. 

These tests are basic, but are still useful. The plan is to continue to add new features and tests as these are developed, but this gives us the chance to get the foundations right from the very beginning.

Let’s build this together!

We hope you will find this initial set of tests useful. The plan is to continue to add tests to cover all the requirements of MIM7. We will also be developing similar tests for the other MIMs.

Once you have done the tests, you can give us feedback as to:

• How well the tests work and how useful they are
• How the interface and process could be improved
• What are the most important things to be tested next
