The ESIP AQ Work Group is currently meeting every other week. These calls alternate with the GEO Architecture Implementation Pilot AQ Working Group's telecons; you can find their telecons here.

1:30pm EDT
Phone: 866-489-0573;
Meeting Code: *2279431*

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. We could update this document or write something new. 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?

Need to profile AQ related projects, programs and efforts (laying out the AQ community landscape)
- Following the initial effort for the EPA Data Summit
- Will help us define next steps (aka 'low hanging fruit') in advancing the AQ community infrastructure
