Notes
- Discuss the agenda of the meeting and the break out groups in Santa Fe.
- Barry - JPL policy requires that everything go through document review. Barry can talk about ISO and ISO quality if desirable. Barry is a software engineer (not a scientist per se) that generates data for scientists.

- Carol contacted some of plenary speakers to engage in IQ session. Glenn Rutledge and Nick Mangus - will leave before Thursday and not able to participate. Kerstin Lenhert still pending.
- Erin - Perhaps Unidata for precipitation? (Mohan Ramamurthy or someone he recommends?)
- Greg L. - Unidata is a broker, not really a specific community representative
- Greg L. - Semantic web/IQ session will be before the community needs session and won't have an idea of use cases until after.
- Carol - One of the four people from NEON should present.

- Chris Lynnes and Barry Weiss are talking about quality at SPG
- Greg L. and Barry will participate in SPG
- ISO Data Quality Discussion
- Barry - Quality is one of the major reasons for metadata.
- Greg L. - Europeans don't want to use ISO because it is still too fluid and has not been improved yet.
- Barry - Temporal Consistency in data quality - whatever ISO tells us about temporal consistency is not formulated enough, has an opinion gap that needs to be filled.
- Actions
- Greg L. - will try to prepare better list of quality indicators so we could have lively discussions about what community thinks about quality indicators. - For second discussion breakout.
- Greg will send a message to Ted Habermann, also contact Gregg Stensas to invite him for Thursday's discussion to ask him to participate in the conversation about QA4EO.
- Carol - contacted Steve Berrick for NASA quality guidelines and will post it on wiki once it is received.
