Main objective

Prepare for the Summer 2011 ESIP Fed meeting

Theme Idea for the Summer meeting

Data/Information Quality

Topics

  • Data quality provided vs. data quality needed (fitness-for-purpose). Solicit and present data quality needs for climate change, air quality, disaster management
  • Pixel quality vs. product quality
  • Validation issues. What is Level 3 data validation? What is Level 3 data quality?
  • Best practices in different communities addressing data quality, e.g., SST error budget
  • 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

Suggested speakers:

  • Eloquent representative from a user community who present a compelling story for data quality specific to her/his community. Potential candidates: Jim Hansen for Climate change
  • Programmatic view - Martha?
  • Data provider response - Wentz?

Suggested

Action items

For the summer meeting:

  • Solicit ideas for breakout sessions
  • Propose more Invited speakers
  • Approach all ESIP cluster/groups/committees to start quality aspect discussions

For the IQ cluster:
