Mar. 25-26, 2004 Agenda

This page has general notes and ramblings for our upcoming meeting on March 25-26. Feel free to continue to add and modify this page. A "working agenda" can be found at Mammoth Agenda with Time Blocked. This agenda is an attempt to take what's below (plus some) and organize it into four four-hour chunks of time. We can keep adjusting, as needed.

I would like to get some discussion of applications on the agenda. In addition to the sci/tech deliverables, I/we have expected outcomes regarding use of snow RS data for hydrology & water resources applications. Roger

Data lineage:

how is everyone currently tracking where their data comes from and where their products go?
what data lineage capability do you need that you don't have now?
what are the elements (simply stated) of a good system (i.e. easy to use, easy to install, reliable, etc.)?

Collaboration

revisit how we collaborate.
- should we dump the wiki?
- what stuff (info, data, software, algorithms) moves around and how?
all hands telecons
- best time, frequency?
- technology meetings, science meetings
how do we evaluate our progress and how often do we do this?

RICE/BALES
Discussion of:

Landstat TM and Modis in regards to SCA
Product evaluation of Modis (SCA)

NOLIN:
Discussion of MISR data for mapping veg structure/density
How to integrate that into planned products?
Product validation

PAINTER:
SWE in mountains - sustenance or smack?
Data flow - predistribution and distribution.
Products thus far.
Algorithm description.
Are we starting meeting sessions at 4pm?
How about 8-11:30AM & 5-8 PM unless fresh powder?

DONAHUE:

Agree on terminology (Look at Bose & Frew, 2004 as possibility)
REASoN Web site

Relation between EIL and Snow Hydro pages
Does the current page structures meet the bulk of our needs?
What modifications need to be made

What was learned at the meeting with Barclay? How does the TerraServer piece fit into the project?

ROSENTHAL
AVHRR and TM algorithm description.

Project Deliverables

What will be our product, technology and literature deliverables?

TerraServer

how do you add new data types (i.e. MODSCAG?, MODIS)?

EIL:

Scientists input regarding their requirements for ES3.
- what are the requirements of us as:
  - a digital library
  - a data archive
  - computing resource
Review existing and/or create new mock-up pages of user interfaces.

Items to Bring:

LCD Projector
Easel, Flip-chart paper, pens
Data projectors
Power strip
Bathing suits
skis, snowboards, snow chains

4 4 hour sessions

1: 8:30am Thursday
