| |
| − | #**Significance: The Education Committee is focusing on using recreational drones for STEM learning. Two webinars on drones for educators are planned on March 22 and April 26. The goal of the first one is to inspire participants by sharing some of the great things drones are being used for. The second is on gathering and organizing data by drones.
| |
| − | #**Significance: The All Hazards Consortium and StormCenter Communications, Inc. have launched the GeoCollaborate™ Disaster Lifecycle Testbed activity within the Multi-State Fleet Response Working Group (FRWG). The FRWG will be testing data access and sharing of critical data layers in a collaborative environment to improve situational awareness and decision making. The testbed activity was introduced to the East Coast Corridor Coalition (EC3) Executive Steering Committee and was well received.
| |
| − | #**GEO partnership: The nomination of Kathy Fontaine to be a member on the GEO Programme Board representing ESIP has been accepted. Congratulations, Kathy! She will be participating in the Program Board Work Plan Symposium to be held in Geneva in May, GEO-XIII Plenary to be held in St. Petersburg in November, as well as other periodic telecom meetings.

| − | #* Highlights
| |
| − | #** GoToMeeting Migration - ESIP is transitioning from WebEx to GoToMeeting to host all of our community telecons. ESIP staff will make every effort to make this a seamless transition, including notifying collaboration area chair person(s) of when their area is switching over, updating the collaboration area wikis with new GoTo telecon links, providing instruction on how to start and run a meeting and offering a training practice call. We will also make ourselves available to anyone responsible for starting and running the telecons if they would like to practice ahead of time.

| |
| − | #* Partnership
| |
| − | #**New Committee met for the first time Feb 29, to meet-n-greet, and discuss with Erin goals and objective of the committee, perhaps expanding the traditional Partnership role. This first meeting was primarily to explore this idea of expanding the scope and identify some near term activities to check off the list (e.g., polishing the New Member Packet, reviewing ESIP 1-pager and previous Partnership Strategic Plans). Next steps are to draft the SP, complete the New Member Packet, review of new member applications, and brainstorm for summer meeting engagement.

Discussing the larger tech evaluation needs (reuse, readiness levels, metrics) with other committees/clusters and potential sessions for Chapel Hill.
| |
| − | #* Semantic Technology
| |
| − | #**We received budget feedback from FiComm and are proceeding with exploration of compute resources. This is being done in conjunction with Products and Services and the Cloud Computing Cluster to reuse existing information and best practices. We have initiated a discussion on ontology governance and software reuse in conjunction with other ESIP groups. Discussion will continue and we plan to have a session on these topics at the summer meeting. We are beginning a comparison of ontology portals and features. Look for a survey to be conducted ESIP-wide to better understand what the community needs in an ontology repository.
