Draft AGENDA for WINTER 2007 Meeting


MAJOR THEME: ESIP responding to national areas of concern

SUB THEME: Getting the most out of your ESIP membership

DAY ONE

morning

A BIG plenary morning with a keynote speech (maybe by a Battelle person and/or NOAA from Northwest or an EPA person or??? One selected tech talk, and one selected science talk... I'm thinking that our plenary should offer a creative mix of ESIP strengths and activities...

Introduction of NEW MEMBERS... with 3 page PPT presentations from each.

This is where people learn about each other..

Afternoon

Breakouts for ESIP USGEO Near-Term Opportunity Working Groups [NTOWG] (what have been called "clusters"... but I don't think these are typical clusters, which have always been bottom-up, ad hoc efforts)...

---I think we should NOT call these clusters... but then I'm a cluster purest (historical note: I did the Great Alaska Cluster Fest)

45 minutes for individual NTOWG meetings... introductions for new members and updates on work-in-progress....

90 minutes in COMBINED NTOWG meetings (three of these... back in the plenary/ TRACK rooms) to report on content contributions to the wikis, etc., potential web services and other connections to data/DSS, and next steps...

BREAK COMBINED NTOWG...continued 60 Minutes: MOVING from wiki to PORTAL... demos from the portal technical staff and portal contacts from each NTOWG.

Evening

Reception.... with a share-fair... NOT set up as a poster session, but with BOF tables... so people can drink and talk sitting down and move around... like a banquet without food...

I LIKE the virtual poster idea... I also think that people should be encouraged to bring 81/2 by 11 handouts for the share fair....

Day TWO

MORNING

Parallel Track meetings (2-3) for 1/2 day (perhaps dividing the large plenary room into 2-3 spaces, etc.)

Tracks-tbd e.g., Web-services, Standards adoption, data access for education,? etc. THIS is where people talk among themselves... and the curious can go to any track.

Afternoon

SESSION A: 45 minutes: ESIP TYPE breakouts in the three track rooms... Getting to know your type-buddies. AND encouraging participation in ESIP Standing Committees

SESSION B: STANDING COMMITTEE breakouts: 90 minutes

BREAK

SESSION C: EITHER short TRACK meetings for specific topics... OR: a plenary with another keynote speaker.

Day THREE

MORNING

SESSION A: PLENARY ESIP as a working organization: The administrative committees and the staff... reports on progress and activities. The ROLE of the Assembly...
