:1. We discussed creation of an ESIP testbed where prototype standards, services, and protocols could be tried out and evaluated, such as:
 
:* permanent, unique naming schemes for datasets (in conjunction with the Preservation and Stewardship Cluster);
 
:* ontologies for data types, data services, and science terms (in conjunction with the Semantic Web Cluster)
 
:* inventory of Federation products and services associated with specific application areas (in conjunction with the Air Quality Working Group, Water Management Cluster, and Carbon Cluster)
 
:* metadata standards for data services.
 
:The plan is to request funds from the Federation to implement this testbed.
 
 
 
:2. We discussed possible activities at the ESIP Summer Meeting, including:
 
:* Technical Workshop: "Getting data into Google Earth"
 
:* Talk: "The value of ISO standards for Earth scientists" (perhaps by Ted Habermann)
 
 
 
:3. Tyler Stevens was selected as the Vice-Chair of this Committee.
