20:07:55 <billroberts> Topic: Tools and web pages for SDW-IG
20:08:57 <tidoust> -> https://github.com/w3c/sdw/issues/990 Issue #990 Updates to SDW IG home page
20:09:10 <billroberts> Jeremy: took an action at last meeting to update the approach to the web page, so we were not always dependent on Francois to update it
20:09:49 <billroberts> ...considered using Jekyll and Markdown but concluded that because the requirements are so simple (just one page) there was not much extra benefit from using Jekyll
20:10:23 <billroberts> ...agendas and minutes get published to a permanent URL using existing tools, so the home page can just link to those
20:10:52 <MichaelGordon> @jtandy - the issue you created on this is here: https://github.com/w3c/sdw/issues/990
20:10:59 <billroberts> ...For each individual project, we can use pages within the repository to share information
20:11:20 <jtandy> http://w3c.github.io/sdw/sdwig-homepage.html
20:11:39 <billroberts> Jeremy has created a new version of the home page in github, more or less identical to the original one that Francois created
20:12:43 <billroberts> ...and added links to current versions of the main documents
20:13:07 <billroberts> Jeremy: would a web page like this, plus mailing list for agendas, plus markdown pages in the repository meet our needs/
20:13:10 <billroberts> ?

20:13:32 <Percivall> Percivall has joined #sdw
20:13:33 <brinkwoman> I only looked for a minute, bu +1 I think
20:14:42 <billroberts> Francois is happy with it, and will let us know if any specific requirements from W3C arise at a later date (there are no specific ones at the moment)
20:15:03 <billroberts> Jeremy: Francois, can you redirect the sdwig home page URL to the github pages?
20:15:12 <tidoust> ACTION: Francois to add a redirect from w3.org to the GitHub page
20:15:12 <trackbot> Created ACTION-379 - Add a redirect from w3.org to the github page [on François Daoust - due 2018-01-10].
20:15:43 <billroberts> Topic: Updates from each active workstream
20:15:56 <billroberts> 2.1 REC track errata
20:16:19 <billroberts> Francois: no work has been done but a couple of issues have been raised against the time ontology and no response to those yet
20:16:40 <billroberts> ...it would be good for Chris and/or Simon to consider those
20:16:49 <billroberts> Jeremy: Chris is not yet back to work after the holidays
20:17:02 <billroberts> ...so let's ping people via the mailing list
20:17:29 <billroberts> Francois will assign those issues to Chris and Simon
20:17:47 <billroberts> 2.2 Statistical data on the web
20:17:50 <gperciva> gperciva has joined #sdw
20:17:55 <tidoust> scribenick: tidoust
20:18:23 <tidoust> billroberts: Not much to report on Stats on the Web BP. Last call became a dial-in to the geosemantic session of NZ meeting.
20:18:37 <tidoust> ... We mostly advertize our work to OGC people
20:18:45 <tidoust> s/advertize/advertized/
20:18:57 <tidoust> ... Apart from that, goal is to collect use cases and requirements.
20:19:18 <tidoust> ... I hope we'll have some new material to discuss for next call on January 10th.
20:19:51 <tidoust> ... Content with the progress for now.
20:20:08 <tidoust> ... We have an enthusiastic group.
20:20:32 <tidoust> ... I'll create milestones so that we can track progress.
20:20:41 <billroberts> scribenick:billroberts
20:20:48 <billroberts> 2.3 SSN Primer
20:20:58 <billroberts> Armin is not on the call today.
20:21:06 <billroberts> no-one else is aware of progress
20:21:11 <billroberts> 2.4 Describing moving objects
20:21:21 <billroberts> Jano is due to lead this adn is not on the call
20:21:27 <billroberts> no-one on the call knows about progress
20:21:36 <billroberts> 2.5 Spatial data on the web BP
20:21:58 <billroberts> MichaelGordon: we had a good call before Christmas and discussed the range of activities the group could do
20:22:15 <billroberts> ...most of the call was around how to encourage adoption of the BPs and how to evangelise about them
20:22:24 <MichaelGordon> https://github.com/w3c/sdw/blob/gh-pages/bp/work-items-and-activities.md
20:22:29 <billroberts> ...Following that meeting I had an action to write up the ideas on a github page (link above)
20:22:58 <billroberts> ...The next stage is to flesh out those headings and to put together a 'comms plan'
20:23:36 <billroberts> ...then pick one of the gaps in the best practices, already identified, based on feedback and demand
20:23:37 <jtandy> Q?
20:23:44 <billroberts> Jeremy: has there been much feedback so far?
20:24:16 <billroberts> MichaelGordon: not much yet, but seeing some adoption and references in the next WFS draft and Testbed 14
20:24:35 <ScottSimmons> ?
20:24:41 <billroberts> ...so seeing early adopters in OGC and can reach out to them for some focused feedback
20:25:25 <ScottSimmons> q+
20:25:33 <billroberts> ...Some members of the group have already implemented some of the BPs and so can give feedback from that
20:26:31 <MichaelGordon> WFS / FES
20:26:59 <billroberts> ScottSimmons: SDWBP document was the motivation for the setting up of the OGC WFS/FES working group, developing the WFS3.0 specficiation and also working with ISO TC211
20:27:05 <brinkwoman> I'm really happy that we have had this impact
20:27:19 <billroberts> Jtandy: that deserves a round of applause!
20:27:58 <brinkwoman> q+
20:28:03 <brinkwoman> haha
20:28:07 <brinkwoman> ok
20:28:11 <brinkwoman> yes
20:28:26 <brinkwoman> we could talk to some early adopters of OGC at the next TC meeting
20:28:44 <billroberts> jtandy: yes that's a good idea
20:29:05 <brinkwoman> organize a short session
20:29:05 <billroberts> jtandy: Michael could you please add a github issue to do as Linda suggests
20:29:38 <billroberts> jtandy: I've been talking to Met Office colleagues about API patterns
20:29:51 <billroberts> ...and making them more aware of the SDWBP
20:30:10 <billroberts> ...which I hope will lead to some feedback for Michael's stream of work
20:30:37 <billroberts> MichaelGordon: agree that examples and feedback will be a valuable addition to the BPs themselves
20:31:19 <billroberts> ...The next call is in 2 weeks and at that point we can structure these activities and agree who is leading on what
20:32:08 <billroberts> jtandy: Suggest that, as with Bill's work, it would be good to define where the group should be in say 2 months from now
20:32:35 <billroberts> ...as we noticed in the previous working group that keeping up the tempo of work proved really important for getting engagement
20:33:06 <billroberts> 2.6 QB4ST
20:33:19 <billroberts> Rob Atkinson is leading that and not on the call. Anyone else no anything?
20:33:27 <billroberts> ...no
20:33:43 <billroberts> 2.7 EO-QB
20:34:28 <billroberts> jtandy:none of the editors of that have engaged with this group yet, so I'll take an action to talk to Kerry, Dimitri and Sam and see if they plan to do more on it
20:34:52 <billroberts> Topic: Update from OGC TC meeting in Palmerston North
20:35:15 <ScottSimmons> 1. Revise OGC TC Policies and Procedures to include "authoritative" SDOs (other than just ISO) for submittal of standards to OGC; W3C is explicitly mentioned as a likely example.
20:36:58 <ScottSimmons> 2. OpenAPI: at least two SWGs (WFS and WPS) are now using OpenAPI to define their next generation of standards. TC agreed not to mandate OpenAPI as the API definition method, but to recommend use of OpenAPI. Still issues with version 2 vs. 3. OGC will need to develop some guidance and likely policy around use of API definition methods (at a minimum, align with the Modular Spec).
20:37:23 <jtandy> OpenAPI ... Swagger as was
20:37:58 <jtandy> Q+
20:38:16 <Zakim> Zakim has joined #sdw
20:38:40 <billroberts> jtandy: OpenAPI is developed by a 'de facto' standards organisation, a vendor-led group.  Has OGC talked to this group?
20:39:04 <billroberts> ScottSimmons: George Percival is on the call today and we have discussed this, including whether OGC should join the OpenAPI group
20:39:31 <billroberts> ...OpenAPI may not be as open as some groups
20:39:45 <billroberts> ...OGC has good experience with Swagger
20:40:18 <billroberts> gperciva: They seemed quite open to discussions, but suggested OGC just joins as a fee-paying member rather than a collaboration of SDOs
20:40:41 <billroberts> ...may be worth discussing that again with them
20:41:06 <ScottSimmons> 3. Agreed to merge Metadata and Catalog DWGs. The GeoDCAT subgroup will fall under this new DWG. Scope will initially be that of both charters, but a new charter needs to be created. Looking for chairs. Expect close cooperation from this DWG and perhaps a GeoDCAT Community standard.
20:42:21 <billroberts> jtandy: is there an action for this group to help link W3C and OGC activities on DCAT/GeoDCAT?
20:42:36 <billroberts> ScottSimmons: it is probably a bit early for that
20:42:54 <billroberts> jtandy: Andrea Perrego could be a useful person to make that happen
20:43:14 <billroberts> ...can we put this on the agenda of the next OGC TC in Orleans ?
20:43:30 <ScottSimmons> 4. Security DWG working more directly with W3C Web Security IG (Andreas Mattheus)
20:44:06 <ScottSimmons> 5. New technology trends being evaluated: a. autonomous vehicles and autonomous navigation systems (emphasis on ground and marine); b. "just in time" analytics - delivering what can be delivered in the time allowed
20:45:45 <ScottSimmons> 6. More interest in joint OGC-W3C pilot on Augmented Reality: http://www.opengeospatial.org/pressroom/pressreleases/2697
20:46:40 <ScottSimmons> 7. Datacubes - is there a need for a new DWG? Consider CovJSON work and other webby efforts, not just traditional coverages
20:47:43 <ScottSimmons> 8. Restarting Oblique Imagery DWG - emphasis will be on web service of imagery; likely will be renamed "Perspective Imagery"
20:49:16 <ScottSimmons> 9. Statistical Data on the Web: definitely interest from OGC members, some continuing concern about trying to create a statistics DWG in the OGC as most members see "geostatistics" as being domain-driven. So maybe the larger discussions being led in W3C might be just fine.

20:52:13 <billroberts> Peter Rushforth: are there compatibility issues when moving from existing services?
20:52:23 <tidoust> Present+ Peter_Rushforth
20:52:38 <billroberts> ...the MappingML activity has been document focused
20:53:01 <billroberts> ...APIs are not always consistent with the way that browsers work.  Is there a document based approach already in consideration?
20:53:43 <billroberts> ScottSimmons: the OpenAPI efforts are around making the services more 'RESTful'.  These have built on the existing OGC standards
20:54:14 <billroberts> ...so relatively straightforward to adapt existing definitions to make them more developer friendly
20:54:33 <billroberts> ...There's nothing to stop us taking a document based approach where that seems the best way
20:54:52 <gperciva> Useful to think about "document oriented maps" to motivate and charcterize MapML
20:55:21 <gperciva> Use of the SSN Ontology and Jano’s work on Moving objects in the ESIP Drone community.  Developing ontology for science data acquisition by airborne drones.  Issues about provenance and data collection management.   VOCamp session in November; Discussion at AGU in December; and ESIP Winter meeting next week:  "Joint session between the Semantic Web cluster and Drone Cluster: Applying semantic tech to sUAS data”  http://sched.co/D6DQ

20:57:14 <MichaelGordon> +1
20:57:15 <ScottSimmons> +1
20:57:16 <brinkwoman> ok
20:57:20 <billroberts> Next plenary call: will discuss dates on the mailing list
20:57:35 <billroberts> Topic: Face to face meetings schedule
20:57:47 <brinkwoman> hang on
20:58:00 <brinkwoman> no, don't have my email client installed yet..
20:58:05 <billroberts> Jeremy, Scott, Francois and I have come up with two options:
20:58:06 <billroberts> 1)
20:58:06 <billroberts> - One f2f in jan/feb, location tbd (I could host again at Geonovum, other offers welcome)
20:58:07 <billroberts> - One at OGC TC 4-8 June at Fort Collins, Colorado
20:58:09 <billroberts> - One at TPAC in Lyon in October.
20:58:11 <billroberts> The advantage of this scenario is that not all f2f meetings are in Europe in this option. We add a meeting in Jan/Feb because otherwise we have to wait until June for our first f2f, which may slow our momentum.
20:58:13 <billroberts> 2)
20:58:15 <billroberts> - One at OGC TC in 19-23 March in Orleans
20:58:17 <billroberts> - One at TPAC in Lyon in October
20:58:19 <billroberts> The advantage is that we only have to travel two times for f2f meetings, and they're nicely distributed over the year. However, both are in Europe.
20:59:03 <jtandy> Option 1 votes?
20:59:14 <billroberts> +1
20:59:18 <brinkwoman> +0
20:59:26 <ScottSimmons> +1
20:59:28 <billroberts> (because I think it's good to have a first meeting soonish if poss)
20:59:40 <tidoust> +1
20:59:47 <jtandy> Option 2 votes?
20:59:52 <brinkwoman> +0
20:59:56 <ScottSimmons> +0
20:59:57 <tidoust> +1 (works for me as well)
20:59:58 <billroberts> +0
21:00:06 <MichaelGordon> +1 (works for me as well)
21:00:15 <ScottSimmons> * I just want to buy the beer at the one in Fort Collins
21:00:27 <MichaelGordon> No one is going to stop you
21:00:29 <MichaelGordon> :)
21:00:46 <billroberts> jtandy: seems a small preference for Option 1.  Anyone not happy?
21:00:56 <billroberts> ...no objections, so let's go with that
21:01:09 <brinkwoman> found them
21:01:12 <brinkwoman> feb 1 and 2
21:01:15 <brinkwoman> feb 6 and 7
21:01:19 <brinkwoman> feb 19 and 20
21:01:59 <MichaelGordon> 19/20 +1
21:02:09 <jtandy> 19/20 +1
21:02:11 <brinkwoman> fine with 3rd option
21:02:32 <tidoust> 19/20 +1
21:02:35 <billroberts> 19/20 +1
21:02:37 <ScottSimmons> I'm likely only remote on the Feb meeting
21:02:51 <ScottSimmons> 19/20 better
21:03:25 <brinkwoman> great!
21:03:28 <billroberts> jtandy: Linda and I will take some actions to plan a meeting in Amersfoort on 19/20 Feb
21:03:34 <PeterRushforth> PeterRushforth has joined #sdw
21:03:36 <brinkwoman> yep will take the lead
21:03:59 <billroberts> jtandy: one more item on the agenda, but we're over time
21:04:54 <billroberts> tidoust: Michael Collins from the W3C accessibility group commented on work on accessibility in maps and for directions
21:05:10 <billroberts> ...i.e. how to get from point A to point B
21:05:29 <billroberts> ...I'm happy to investigate ideas around accessibility of maps with teh accessibility team
21:05:30 <brinkwoman> I think it would be great if you cn do that Francois
21:06:09 <billroberts> PeterRushforth: Google has done a lot of work on making their maps accessible so would be great to have some involvement of their map people
21:06:26 <billroberts> jtandy: notes that Ed Parsons is a member of this group.  Would be interesting also to connect to other map vendors
21:06:59 <billroberts> jtandy: Francois can make an initial outline of what would be relevant and then we can see how that fits in the schedule
21:07:08 <billroberts> ...let's raise it in the public list
21:07:25 <billroberts> ...and we will add it (tentatively) to the work plan
21:07:30 <billroberts> AOB?
21:07:38 <billroberts> None
21:07:42 <MichaelGordon> Issue I was to raise is raised here: https://github.com/w3c/sdw/issues/991
21:08:04 <brinkwoman> Thank you all, next time I'll try to have sound again!
