Subgroup Members:

  • Chris Lenhardt
  • Stefan Falke

Issues to Be Addressed:

  • Interfacing with other organizations – national & international (AGU, EGY, GEO, CEOS, ISRSE, others?) – how do we support our efforts in this? ESIP ambassadors; distinctions between wearing multiple hats; collaborations
  • Map relationships across organizations; what’s the landscape (concept map development tool)
  • Training for and Engagement of Next Generation of Data Managers – academic discipline; stewardship

Discussion:

Should we interface? Yes! The listed group represents a good start. But, these should not be the universe - where are the smaller, lesser known organizations (e.g. less formally structured groups like the EPA Data Summit; domain experts)
How to handle overlap among different groups? Connections are important to make & are being loosely made. CEOS wanted to make connections to Sensor Web and GEO. CEOS formed an Atmospheric Science Interest Group to make connections among/between groups.
GEOSS Air Quality Community of Practice - is the ESIP Federation limited as a domestic organization? or can we/should we play internationally?
ESSI focus groups at AGU, EGU
ESIP is uniquely positioned at intersection of science and technology
