Timeline Milestones - xdomes/Project-Administration GitHub Wiki

# Year 1: Sep 1, 2015 - Aug 31, 2016

Community Development and Outreach: Contact sensor manufacturers of large NSF-funded programs; establish X-DOMES Network through ESIP. Begin work on vocabulary development and registration; building on existing relationships, introduce project to other working groups, such as EarthCube/DataONE/RDA; and, raise awareness of the pilot project through conference participation in AGU. Set up web presence for X-DOMES team and X-Domes Network. Software Development: Complete updated SWE Model (2.0); preliminary updates to the MMI Vocabulary Builder and ORR; updated SensorML Editor/Viewer for OEM files; alignment and harmonization of SensorML model with the W3C-XG SSN ontology and OBOE; and, definition of functional requirements for Python and Matlab APIs/modules and faceted Linked Data interface. Evaluation Materials: Report on manufacturers’ participation and feedback; assessment of synergies with existing communities; reviews of updated software, models, and harmonization efforts.

# Q1: 9/1 - 11/31/15

  • Set up x-domes workspace (complete)
  • Announce project to project collaborators 1. ESIP 2. DataONE 3. R2R/BCODMO/CUAHSI 4. EarthCube BB: CHORDS/BCUBE/GeoLINK
  • update Q2O model (SWE 1.0 -> 2.0) focus on OEM/ConDEP files
  • conduct first annual face-to-face (when? where? who besides us? CHORDS? BCUBE? ESIP? ESIP-ES cluster?) (what should we accomplish there?)

# Q2: 12/1/15 - 2/29/16

  • Gather feedback from collaborators
  • Begin contacting sensor manufacturers present concept but focus on vocabulary development
  • Plan XDOMES within ESIP Environmental Sensor Cluster
  • Review content requirements for sensor manufacturer software (sensorML generator)

# Q3: 3/1/16 - 5/31/16

  • Begin planning for workshop at ESIP (week after July 4th)
  • EarthCube AllHands Meeting ## Q4: 6/1/16 - 8/31/16*
  • Finalize and prepare content for ESIP Summer Meeting

# Year 2: Sep 1, 2016 - Aug 31, 2017

Community Development and Outreach: Conduct second annual X-DOMES Network workshop at ESIP Summer Meeting introducing tools/guidance for sensor model (OEM) development and registration, as well as continued guidance on vocabularies; continue outreach (EarthCube/RDA/AGU/DataONE); Demonstration of API/modules for OEM documents; continued sensor manufacture outreach. Assess opportunities for student engagement. Develop requirements and strategies for the automated creation of ConDep content. Software Development: Launch forms to generate content (SensorML generator); create SensorML registry; develop Linked Data compliant interface to registry; release updates to the MMI Vocabulary Builder and ORR; alignment and harmonization with standardization results from the W3C Spatial Data on the Web working group as well as EarthCube GeoLink Instrumentation ontology design pattern; and integration and inter-linkage with Prov-O provenance ontology. Evaluation Materials: Report on sensor manufacturers participation and feedback, on data management facilities’ response to new content, and to brokering experience with BCUBE; report on Linked Data and SSN alignment activities; and lessons learned.
