Agenda
- Greg Stensaas (Chair of the CEOS Cal/Val WG): "International Earth Observation Quality Assurance Efforts".
- Preparation for the Summer EIP Meeting in Santa Fe: ESIP Summer 2011 Meeting
- Speakers
- Identify reps of various research and application communities for:
- their understanding and requirements for quality
- methodology they use to assess and quantify data quality
- Communities: SST, Ocean color, Precipitation, Atm Chemistry, Land, Modeling, Applications (e.g., Air Quality),...
Old Action Items
- Hook and Greg: setup a page for collecting and aliasing quality-related terms
Notes
Upload community-specific presentations/papers either to the Community portion of the web site
- Greg Leptoukh noted that the agenda for the summer meeting breakout session is still fluid.
- Ocean color community not able to attend
- Invitations to NASA data quality PIs will be issued
- AQ and Energy communities will be represented
- Greg Stensaas, USGS & Chair of CEOS Calibration/Validation WG
- Landsat program repsonsibilities shifting
- continually trying to improve data accuracy
- need to improve time series terrestrial data
- integration of Landsat data with other data and sensors to support climate change research
- Need calibration to improve accuracy across systems
- requires better documentation
- improves consistency across data sets
- GCOS - improved definitions for Accuracy & Stability
- better definitions for standards, processes and establish quality indicators
- Need coordination among MANY players in the quality space
- CEOS
- GEO SBA linkages (CEOS is the space arm of GEO) - (http://earthobservations.org)
- WG on Calibration/Validation (WGCV) - has 6 subgroups
- Cal/Val portal (http://calvalportal.ceos.org)
- test site (http://earthexplorer.usgs.gov)
- CEOS Visualization Environment (COVE)
- GEOSS support for quality information for SBAs (timely, quality, long-term & global)
- Quality Assurance Framework for Earth Observations (QA4EO) http://qa4eo.org
- Reference standards can be test sites or a reference to a standard ("fit for purpose")
- Definition has to be relevant to the whole suite of observations
- October 18-20 QA4EO meeting in Oxford, England (4th meeting)
Action Items
- All: continue looking for speakers and community reps
