Topics (feel free to add an item to the agenda):

  • Proposed next step: Writing up a AQ Community Near Term Opportunity document, as discussed in Santa Barbara. A few years back EPA (Scheffe) and NOAA (Steve Fine?) produced an NTO for USGEO.

Such a document, for ourselves, would be useful for explaining to others the purpose of this community, and so that we can see if we are making progress.
    • Could we write a draft of an NTO early this fall so we could present it in November to work on with a fuller version of an AQ Community of Practice?
  • Semantic telecon update on Machine tags use for AQ Metadata
  • ESIP booth at GEO Plenary in November?
    • Showcase AIP-2 progress?
    • others?

(Feel free to add new stuff here. Remaining items are recycled from last call because they still seem germane, but I don't want to fill up the agenda if there is other work to discuss)
