Owen Ambur
Actively Retired at ConnectedCommunity.net
Hilton Head Island, South Carolina, United States
Summary
👤
SeniorOwen Ambur is a standards-driven informatics and XML strategist with a decades-long career in government technology, records management, and standards advocacy. He chaired the committee that produced StratML as an international standard (ISO 17469-1) and continues to shepherd its adoption through community projects like ConnectedCommunity.net and AboutThem.info. Based on experience as Chief XML Strategist at the Department of the Interior and leadership of government XML communities, he translates policy-driven requirements into interoperable, machine-readable information architectures. Now actively retired on Hilton Head Island, he still hosts archival community resources (e.g., FIRM and xmlCoP sites) and seeks partners to operationalize a web of intentions, stakeholders, and results. Notably, his work sits at the intersection of public-sector process, standards engineering, and practical domain stewardship rather than traditional product-driven software development.
