Notes
Tom welcomed the team to the meeting. He introduced the agenda and asked if anyone wanted to add anything. He then welcomed the new members to the team and invited them to briefly introduce themselves.
Tom presented the Task Team Terms of Reference. He noted in particular, that the new standards for WIS2 are a clean break from the WIS 1 standards, the software packages available to support these standards, the importance of quality assessment of metadata content, the importance of developing best practices for transition, and implementation and the need to create a task team to investigate and analyze the metadata standards for harmonization. Guillaume requested more details on the WIS2 Notification and Alerting Messages. Sylvain was wondering if there was a conceptual model or UML of the standards to understand them more quickly. Anna noted that there are links to all of the relevant repositories on the TT-WISMD homepage on GitHub.
All attendees had an opportunity to describe their current activities in producing WIS2 metadata in their organizations.
As part of the WMO Secretariat updates, Anna noted that there are amendments to the WIS2 Guide and the WIS2 Manual (WTH and WNM) that are currently available for National Focal Point review until mid-October. They are available from the WMO community website: FT2024-2-1060-vol-II.pdf and FT2024-2-1061-vol-II.pdf.
Tom briefly described the working arrangements in GitHub noting that all changes/requests need to be captured in GitHub issues first and discussions need to be recorded in the issue comments until a decision is formed. Given that there are four different standards that this team is managing Tom proposed to hold two 90-minute meetings per month with roughly 45 minutes for each standard. The agendas will be announced before the meetings and this will allow team members to join or leave the meetings based on the predetermined agenda topics.
Lastly, the team reviewed the oustanding actions from previous meetings.
To close the meeting, Tom noted that they will schedule the next series of meetings and send out invitations. Finally, the team members were invited for a last comment.
Specific issues for the different specifications were not discussed.
