AIP Telecon 10 August 2010

Discussion
  • AIP-3 Development Milestones
    • Objective:  SBA scenarios implemented with common architecture use cases
      • Important to provide feedback on use cases during scenario development. Intent to schedule joint E2E / Scenario calls to go over use case incorporation and refinements
    • Now:  Development of services and components.
      • SBA WGs to identify resources for implementing their scenarios
      • Develop wiring diagram showing the connections between resources
    • Testing is underway:  
      • 1st) Use Case Testing, 2nd) Scenario Testing
      • Plan for AIP-3 testing
    • Demo captures complete in Early October
      • Capture workshop as virtual event.
      • WGs to identify demonstation topics.
  • Update by Technical WGs 
    • Data Sharing - Steve Browdy
      • Finishing up tagging for data sharing, now working user management with session persistence, e.g.
        • Shibboleth - probably too heavyweight
        • OpenID - more appropriate level of implementation & management effort
        • OAuth - subject of meeting following the plenary
      • Implementation scenarios
        • Data provider federation - low GCI impact but heavy provider work and tricky to coordinate
        • GCI support components - easier for providers, but couldn't be implemented before AIP-4, not clear if it would include identity management, access enforcement, or both. Could be connected to user requirements registry.
    • Vocabularies and Semantics - Cristiano Fugazza
      • Revisions of EuroGEOSS broker planned for end of the month / early September. Documentation of changes waiting for Mattia to return from vacation. Next calls in early Sept.
      • Will - working on water / drought ontology to be incorporated into broker next month.
    • Data Harmonization - No report
    • End-to-end - Josh
      • AIP-3 Use Cases - Greg still working on processing use cases
      • GEOSS Common Record Table from Erin Robinson
        • Notes from previous day's telecon here
        • Next steps: distinguishing queryable - full - summary - brief element sets, describing workflow for providers and for clearinghouse, distinguishing metadata for datasets, services, and "dataservices". Still need input on Inspire profile.
      • Steve - Consolidated GCI component list is posted
      • Steve - will ask Rob about cross-references between GEO tasks for "synergy mining"
  • Update on collaboration logistics - contact Josh Lieberman for assistance

     

    • Google Sites, Calendar, Telecons, DimDim
      • Dimdim lack of VOIP - PSTN bridge is frustrating and Freeconference call quality is sporadic, but free is ... Any suggestions for better options are welcome.
    • E-mail lists
    • GEOSS Best Practice Wiki
      • Location for AIP-3 Contributions to BP Wiki
  • Any other business
    • 14th Architecture and Data Committee (ADC-14) Meeting, September 1-3, Ankara Turkey
      • Steve will ask about telecon support for Aug. 31st SIF workshop there and whether Webex use will conflict with plenary call.
    • Next AIP Telecon West: 17 August 2010, 1300 UTC
