- Discuss goals and potential activities the group plan to accomplish by Summer ESIP, possible activities include:
- Classify disaster types for assessment with the cluster, and identify those within scope
- Capture use cases, potentially contribute to next GEOSS Architecture Implementation Pilot opportunity (e.g., AIP-7 in 2014)
- Gather insights from organizations addressing disasters like GEOSS, USGEO, OSTP, CEOS, OGC (complementary, not duplicate effort)
- Collect information from ESIP members involved in disaster response/risk reduction such as what data are being used now (list of derived products) and map data sources to consumers (probably by hazard type)
- Identify commonality and major gaps
- Develop a webinar or exhibit on the use of EO for disasters to engage end users and better understand their needs
