Notes

  • ToR: good for now
  • WMO GitHub overview provided by Anna
  • KPIs (Enrico)
    • submitting to INFCOM
      • option 1: propose amendment to the Guide (INFCOM, then Executive council)
        • need something ready by 16 December
      • option 2: add into an INFO document and submit by mid January 2021
        • need something ready by 16 mid-December
      • option 3: infom INFCOM that we are writing guidance and will produce a document for use in the WIS Guide in 2022
    • implementation checklist
      • 14 KPIs, varying level of completeness
      • work is needed to harmonize all KPIs
      • need an introduction (overview, who the KPIs are for, how they are to be used/implemented, reference implementation [pywcmp]). Added to https://github.com/wmo-im/wcmp/issues/69
      • WIS 2 may change KPIs, but we still need to improve catalog holdings
      • reference implementation (pywcmp): will need KPIs in a usable state to start development
  • Team identified volunteers to work on each KPI

Decisions

  • ToR: good for now
  • TT-WISMD will start to make changes via the WMO Repository Workflow Guidance once the KPIs are bootstrapped/hardened
  • option 3 chosen for communication to INFCOM (will contain resolution for the INFO document). We will produce a guide on KPIs, but not updating the WIS Guides directly. We need this by 20 January 2021

Actions

  • TT-WISMD team to work on assigned KPIs for 07 December 2020 meeting
  • Enrico to inform INFCOM on option 3
