Notes:
1) ESIP ExCom Program Committee update
- ESIP has finished its restructuring process, now a single organization with a single governance structure
- Not likely to affect DS committee in major way
- Bruce Caron has really started to push Slack ESIP-wide
- #stewardship channel on ESIP-All Slack: https://esip-all.slack.com/messages/stewardship/
- Jamie: Slack could be helpful to cut down the number of emails sent and communicate with team members who are geographically distributed.
- Ruth: Will second Jamie's feedback. Ruth has also found it useful to coordinate collaborative efforts. Ruth pointed out that updates to the citation guidelines would be a good test case. Ruth has also found that Slack integrates well with Google Drive.
- Question from Sophie/Rama: Does ESIP Program Committee have funding to bring outside speakers in for summer meeting (speakers other than plenaries)?
- Matt: The answer right now is no, for speakers other than plenary speakers, but Annie Burgess communicated that this may change going forward (stay tuned)
- Change is not likely to take effect before the upcoming Summer Meeting
2) Finalization of the 2017 DS Committee Strategic Plan
- From Program Committee call: Matt/Jamie/Sophie need to relate DS Committee Strategic Plan objectives to objectives/goals in the overall ESIP 2015-2020 Strategic Plan (minor task)
- Regarding DS plan objective #4: Sophie reports that Soren Scott was already able to finish a draft of the Software Guidelines; she is looking for feedback from various committees/clusters within ESIP
- This means that DS committee shouldn’t be working "from scratch" on the 4th objective in our plan
- Jamie will circulate a link to a revised final plan once these changes have been incorporated
3) Call for DS-related sessions at 2017 ESIP Summer Meeting
- Deadline is April 10 for session proposals
- Sophie relates an announcement for Rama from Information Quality Cluster: Emphasis for this year for IQ cluster is to expand collaborations with other clusters and committees; this applies to DS cluster in particular
- IQ cluster is planning a panel which will address how uncertainties in data will influence perceived trustworthiness in science
- DS committee members with ideas for the panel should get in touch with Sophie
- Andrea Thomer: At summer meeting, planning to host a hackathon-style workshop with Drone Cluster, Semantic Web Tech Committee, and hopefully Data Stewardship group.
- Goal is to hack together use cases, best practices, ontologies, etc for drone applications. We want to encourage "match-making" between people with drone interests/expertise in different clusters and practice areas
- Interested: Nancy Hoebelheinrich, Heather Brown, Sophie Hou
- Email Andrea for more info/if you want to help write the workshop call: andrea.thomer@gmail.com
- Nancy Hoebelheinrich: Crowdsourcing event for people to add content to the Data Management Training Clearinghouse, including providing feedback regarding user experience with the Clearinghouse
- Sophie reports that there are some outreach/testing efforts in progress to gauge effectiveness of the clearinghouse offerings with various audiences
- The two confirmed venues are: e-Science Symposium and RDAP; we have an abstract submitted to USGS CDI Meeting, and if accepted, the Meeting will take place in May. Another possibility is DataONE's Users Group Meeting that will co-located with ESIP Summer Meeting.
- Sophie notes that we haven’t had a "business" type report-out/planning session for the DS committee; maybe we should have one this summer?
- Matt will run to ground to see what best practices/requirements are
