| |
− | #*# Good to formalize role for ESIP in GEO and US GEO at a fine scale, wherever we can "ESIP will do .... " He thought plenary and breakout sessions were good, but relied on the right people to be in the room.
| |
− | #*# GEO is fairly high level to ESIP. ESIP is cutting edge technology/real data users and GEO has to worry about being accessible to developing countries and not asking them to do something too complicated - poses a challenge
| |
− | #*# He likes the idea of ESIP as a user community on top of stuff that GEO/GEOSS does. He wondered how we'd entice our community since many aren't going to go through the Discovery/Access Broker (DAB).
| |
− | #*# Evolution of functionality available in DAB - not sure if this is open source or proprietary. Run other instances of the DAB and turn toward community development
| |
− | #*# US GEO side easier for Jeff to see connections. Make sure that stuff goes from US to GEO and ESIP people could help do this 'the right way', eliminating manual registration.
| |
− | #*# US GEO chartered to coordinate BEDI. Starting to talk about what to do with BEDI money - abstract more discoverable, accessible useable with metadata and data formats. In practice what does that mean? ESIP providing guidance on right choices, using/testing implementations that feds set up.
| |
