- Existing IQ frameworks and methodologies (Data View)
- Quality ontology
- Quality provenance
- Quality harmonization
- Interaction with QA4EO and other international entities dealing with data quality for earth observations
Breakout sessions
- IQ cluster (terminology, standardization, IQ framework, IQ4EO white paper preparetion)
- Semantic web cluster (to discuss data quality ontology)
- Air quality cluster
Discussions
