EarthCube white paper status and plan
Since last month's Discovery and ESC telecons, there have been some new information on the whitepaper posted: http://earthcube.ning.com/profiles/blogs/announcement-please-post-your-whitepapers
Also, we can see the white papers submitted so far: http://earthcube.ning.com/page/background-reading

- Does the sign on statement mean you agree or made modifications, sign to larger or smaller?
- Signing means you agree, sign to smaller section
- Should try to get the whitepaper in this week

Plans for awarded Discovery Testbed implementation
- Discovery cluster submitted testbed to ESIP Products and Services committee
- Awarded to ESRI, lead by Christine White
- What could ESRI do that would be useful for the ESIP discovery cluster?
- What are the goals?
- What are the success criteria?
- Christine can present status/progress at Winter Meeting
- Solicitation was about...
- Testbed for interoperability testing
- Used for advertising ESIP community services
- Services to data broker (identifies services that are compatible with data) ("Icing on the cake")
- ESRI's response:
- Responded to 3 of the tasks, selected for task 2
- using open source GeoPortal server software as a base
- can be extended/modified/etc. without concern
- Some of the RFP features are available out of the box (GeoRSS/Atom results)
- Development would be useful for orgs outside of ESIP
- the hours of the project will be billed for conversations with ESIP, development will be paid for by ESRI
- ESRI gets first-hand information/use cases for developing this data portal
- Cluster gets a useful testbed for advertising services/datasets, etc. for RFP
- What sort of impact should the RFP have on Discovery Cluster? What can be coordinated by ESRI?
- Anyone using GeoPortal automatically cast datasets?
- All providers using GeoPortal can be aggregated using data casting standards.
- Is it possible to get "automatic" casting from GeoPortal?
- Ruth clarifies casting from GeoPortal.
- Anyone using GeoPortal automatically cast datasets?
- What is the best way for cluster to collaborate with ESRI?
- Ruth: NSIDC can talk to ESRI about what the GeoPortal should have (i.e., casting capabilities)
- Hook: what about the OpenSearch front-end, GeoPortal has uses OpenSearch...
- Chris: seeking a "standing" server where people can write and test OpenSearch clients

- Chris: would the GeoPortal server respond to OpenSearch request
- Christine: it should
- GeoPortal is not the interface at geoportal.org
- Hook: suggests a starting point - a place for community members to register OpenSearch services, casting services, etc.
- GeoPortal can be used to register and search services
- Christine offered to give a demo of a "vanilla" GeoPortal server
- This can be a topic of next month's telecon.
- Christine will coordinate with Hook and Brian to produce an interesting demo
- What is the timeline for the work?
- ESRI is flexible on the timeline (response was to have work completed within one year)
- What are the success criteria?
