Winter 2013 Meeting Schedule | < Back to the AQ Workspace

January 10 8:30-10:00 GMT-5

For the first session we will have 10 minute presentations on the current state of data services from

Some of topics to cover might be:

  • what data is provided
  • what technologies are used
  • who is using the data for what
  • what difficulties have you encountered
  • what is needed for future development

With the remaining time in the session we could hear from some of the stakeholders about their needs and impressions of the existing services. These might be:

  • NOAA/Greg Frost
  • EPA/Terry
  • UNC/Uma
  • Others???

January 10 10:30-12:00 GMT-5

Hopefully this will generate a list of issues to be discussed in the second session. Some potential topics:

  • Issues faced by modelers in accessing data services.
  • Issues of accessing data services
  • Issues of publishing data services
  • Existing metadata standards and conventions
  • Use cases for the existing services
  • Discussion of technologies for access to large data for various types of post-processing web services. The IRODS group may be presenting at ESIP as well.
  • How to proceed with metadata data developments started in Dublin.
  • Discussion of the next versions of WCS and DAP.
  • Data conventions for distributing point data.
  • Data catalog registration and search access. Does AQCoP need a faceted search i.e. [1]?

The goal of these two sessions will be to gain a better understanding of how the community is working and what work needs to be done to meet the broader scientific priorities.
