| − | :*Data Decadal Survey Cluster [[media:DataStudyPitch_v2.pdf |Proposal]]
| |
| − | :** Carol Meyer described the Data Decadal Survey history. The idea was seeded by Dan Baker at a Boulder Earth & Space Science Informatics Group meeting and has been championed by Anne Wilson, who is leading an ESIP cluster to advance the idea. The Cluster spearheaded a panel at the ESIP Summer Meeting. In consultation with BRDI, the group is considering NRC mechanisms other than decadal survey, so the name of the study is evolving. The group is now coordinating a workshop to be held just prior to the ESIP Winter Meeting, Jan. 7, 2014. The study has a fairly defined lifespan, but does need a budget. It is suggested that the group with a formal task, now become a working group.
