Improving our infrastructure for transparency, “feedback” and collaboration on AQ resources

Discussion: This area captures a several of very related ideas centering on improving the “soft” infrastructure for AQ collaboration that did not receive a significant discussion. Some of these could be “promoted” to their own focus areas as a way of moving them forward.

  • Improve upstream feedback loops in the AQ data flows especially for model developers and application developers. Use Web 2.0 approaches to do this, for example, by capturing user experience/feedback on various resources similar to “customer reviews” and “seller reputation tracking” on e-commerce sites.
  • Establish Common Collaborative Space/Portal Where Related Resources Can Be Exposed, Discussed and Collaborated Upon.
