Agenda:
- Update on December 14th Action Items
- Featured Speaker: Sally Holl will talk about (please correct me if I misstate anything, Sally!) her work to consume USGS Water webservices for use in ESRI-based end user applications. Hopefully we can discuss approaches and products of her work that others might be able to reuse, as well as provide feedback to data providers on how to make their services more readily usable to developers of end-user applications. See Sally's presentation on webex here. Get the webex player here
Ran Long, will move items below to next meeting.
- Plan upcoming meetings and meeting process
- Brainstorm featured presentations/presentors
- Documenting TSWG calls and post-call research
- Talk about participation in upcoming conferences
- The National Map Users Conference and USGS GIS Workshop, specifically the Data Integration Track
- Should we form a PDA developer subgroup (or should we join with the Field Computing Integration and Support (FCIS) folks)? Should we designate someone to talk w/FCIS?

author-g-sjxoyphxz122za2lnwui From Joe K.%%
%%
author-g-sjxoyphxz122za2lnwui A new site service should hopefully be available in March for usage. The next focus will be a DV service FY11, then a gw levels service in FY12%%

%%
author-g-sjxoyphxz122za2lnwui End user wants summary statistics, would be a good web service.%%
%%
author-g-sjxoyphxz122za2lnwui David Briar is working on a similar service, but extension to some kind of statistics engine may be in order.%%
%%
author-g-sjxoyphxz122za2lnwui Maybe even canned maps of important data.%%
