Subgroup Members:

Issues to Be Addressed:

• Collaborations - how do we track them? Make these more visible
• Provide a template for committees
• Tie committee/working group funding to metrics reporting
• Are the DSWG interested?

Discussion:

• Air Quality Cluster Metrics

• ESIP Cluster is the point of contact for GEOSS AQ - AQ Community of Practice
• ESIP Cluster had a role in creating EPA Data Summit - Facilitating role; Provided a forum (EPA AQ projects needing to interoperate)

• Did we create a way of working across projects, domains?
• Data Summit has spun off as its own
• Matrix of AQ Systems
• ESIP Wiki in Use to Support Data Summit
• EPA AQ Managers getting connected to IT

• Notion of Metrics Being Ways to Identify New Opportunities
• IT&I Committee

• Relationships gained through ESIP Federation to develop EET Chapters

Recommendations:

• Make metrics useful for identifying opportunities, gaps, strategic direction
• Look at other (virtual, bricks/mortar) organizations - what are their metrics? what's their value?
• Define metrics for communities of practice
• Ask each of the active committees and clusters to contribute to collaboration metrics/stories
