jtandy: the minutes are approved
<eparsons> https://www.w3.org/2015/spatial/wiki/Patent_Call
jtandy: hearing nothing
jtandy: finally some changes visible in BP editor's draft
<jtandy> http://w3c.github.io/sdw/bp/
jtandy: TOC is different, new
sections added in front material
... intro has been rewritten, also audience and scope
sections,
<scribe> ... new section for explaining diff between spatial things, features and geometry
<scribe> ... new section on linked data (but not necessarily RDF)
UNKNOWN_SPEAKER: and new section
on why SDI's are not enough.
... we think it now better reflects the thoughs of the WG.
Feedback welcome!
... audience now mostly focussed on spatial data publishers,
but will add a section reminding them they're not doing it for
themselves but for data users.
... (data publishers = webby folk and spatial folk)
<jtandy> proposed: the audience of the of the BP doc is data publishers; whether webby or spatial experts

RESOLUTION: the audience of the of the BP doc is data publishers; whether webby or spatial experts - including developers writing tools to help people publish spatial data on the web
<eparsons> I can scribe
<eparsons> Linda working on chapter that actually contins BP's
<eparsons> Linda reordered to match DWBP doc
<eparsons> Linda e.g starts with metadata, etc...
<eparsons> Linda working through each one, adding examples, matching with DWBP and referencing them
<eparsons> Done for metadata and data quality
<eparsons> jtandy Next steps
<eparsons> ?
<eparsons> Linda Complete all BP's using this process e.g. matching with DWBP - A lot of work however
<eparsons> jtandy Issues that come up will be flagged to the group via the email list
<eparsons> jtandy Thanks for thread contributions so far..
<eparsons> Linda - Comments from Andrea need to chase up - ISO 19115
<eparsons> ByronCinNZ - Will work though ... Metadata publishing is best practice now
<eparsons> jtandy Choosing encoding different to data...
<eparsons> Linda Continue via email thread...
jtandy: I will work on getting
the narrative, the flooding scenario, inserted into the
document
... on the top of the BP section the narrative will be
introduced,
... in each of the BPs themselves there will be examples that
come from the narrative,
... appendix will describe the full scenario as a standalone
thing
eparsons: some of the BPs might be more important than others, do we want to have ratings, like 1 to 5 stars?
<MattPerry> I agree
roba: DWBP had these icons
signalling the areas a BP covers
... also you could order the sections
jtandy: we can use the benefit icons, yes
eparsons: slightly different from what I mean, it's more giving some BPs priority over others
ByronCinNZ: good idea, but with caution. Depending on what you're publishing, this could change priorities/benefits
<jtandy> proposed: we will reuse the "benefit icons" from DWBP to help describe the relative value of each SDW BP

roba: can we have extra benefit icons?
(no specific suggestions)
jtandy: yes
Linda: priorities: are these steps?
eparsons: yes, needs discussion, not necessarily less to more difficult, but less to more beneficial.
jtandy: I hope the narrative will help in giving guidance on what to do in a concrete case.
eparsons: yes, probably the
easiest way to manage it.
... to get maximum benefit to readers of this document we need
to make clear which are the key messages
... URIs, linking, ...
ByronCinNZ: maybe useful to have a matrix at the end matching different data types to bp's important for publishing that type of data.

jtandy: schedule: we intend to have a clean editor's draft by beginning of september
<ByronCinNZ> ACTION: Byron Cochrane to create a matrix of datatypes related to best practices for inclusion in BP document [recorded in http://www.w3.org/2016/07/27-sdwbp-minutes.html#action03]
<trackbot> Created ACTION-189 - Cochrane to create a matrix of datatypes related to best practices for inclusion in bp document [on Byron Cochrane - due 2016-08-03].
jtandy: 7th september
... between then and up to and including TPAC have WG
discussion around the new draft;
... also discuss whether we agree that BPs exist in the
wild,
... and vote for publication during TPAC or shortly after
<jtandy> https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-sdw-wg/2016Jul/0238.html
jtandy: this BP should help people choose the right format and vocabulary, in the form of a decision tree if that will work
roba: BP could be to publish in as many formats as your audience finds useful, but let at least one of them be RDF
jtandy: and RDF might be only SKOS or might beJSON-LD, right
roba: be flexible and deliver multiple formats
jtandy: through content
negotiation
... any advice on which serialisation of RDF?
eparsons: maybe going too far to
suggest RDF is the end game. Choose data formats that are
linkable.
... telling people you must use RDF will put them off
jtandy: what about schema.org in JSON-LD?
eparsons: that gets you somewhere, more accessible than RDF
jtandy: we are asking to provide schema.org in the BP.
roba: endorses eparsons.
... linking capability and being able to annotate types
jtandy: when choosing a format
criteria are e.g. dimensionality of the data, CRS other than
WGS84,
... toolchain of target community, ...
roba: JSON is popular now
ClausStadler: and YAML
jtandy: the email I linked
earlier there are some questions. Please look at these
questions and agree if these are the proper ones.
... also supporting multiple formats is a good one.
eparsons: good questions, ask the questions in a closed way (e.g. is there any reason NOT to use WGS84)
jtandy: so always aim towards the simplest approach
Linda: these questions are more about vocabularies than formats. No clear line between what's a format and whats a vocab
jtandy: have to write about
that.
... will be in touch with those who have work to do for the
flooding scenario narrative!
<eparsons> thx linda
