Hi,
Below is an email exchange between Marie-Francoise Voidrot of Meteo France
and Andrew Woolf of the British Atmospheric Data Center in which they follow
up on topics discussed at last week's OGC Meteo DWG.    I thought this might
be of interest, especially the effort to coordinate development of data
models for exchanging weather data as well as an OGC/GIS meeting to be held
in late November in Toulouse that is a follow up to last year's meeting at
ECMWF at which the formation of the OGC Met DWG was discussed.

 Hi all,

I have reorganised the twiki to add a table of content and put the Weather
Exchange Models at a higher level ( it was existing but in the page "Other
topics of interest". At this level it would be great if one of you want to
improve the introduction part with a general description of the issue, the
state of the art or existing references, eventually the aim of the
discussion (create a new standard, some best guidances, bring consistency
into the best guidances made for the different standards...) and then the
discussion can take place underneath.
I just put there what Aaron (I think) had put into the previous location.

Is that OK?

Marie-Françoise

Hi all,

I think creating a page on the twiki will be an excellent way to keep
the discussion moving.

My impression from the meeting was that people felt the time is right
- for the 'service information coherency' reasons Marie-Francoise
mentions, as well as maximising the benefits of existing modelling
activities, some of which are just spinning up.

I, for one, would welcome the opportunity to contribute at a session
in Toulouse. It would be a worthy ambition for that meeting, in my
view, to aim for a roadmap with some concrete plans, given the
interest at both the ECMWF meeting last November, and the Boston TC.

Best regards,
Andrew

Hi Bruce, Hi Andrew,

My understanding is that a community based information modelling
activity for meteorology has to be done.
WMS has been identified as a priority to define best guidances because
it is more accessible to all and already enhance some issues that will
be usefull for all standards.
WMS is maybe not as impacted by modelling as WFS, WCS and SOS are but
this standards come right after (and the notion of "after" is very
relative as works have already begun but it can be difficult to focus on
all the standards at the same time)
So the works on modelling have to begin now to be a little more mature
when WFS implementations and best guidances will be the priority.

I offer to open a page of discussion on the twiki with some informations
out from Andrews ppt (schemas listed in the "Actors" slide for
instance), and put this as a working group or even a session if enough
presentations are offered into the OGC /GIS meeting in TOulouse end of
November.

Marie-Francoise

 Hi Andrew,

I'm just catching up on some of my outstanding emails (and starting
with the important ones...).

I reviewed your presentation at the Boston MDWG.

I can see that we are on the same page.

Have you had much interest yet in your call for establishing a
community based information modelling activity for meteorology?


Bruce
