Meeting Conclusions

• EO-DAIL RIDs to be handled with ad-hoc periodic teleconferences
• The new issue 0.1.9 of the OGC 06-131 catalogue document has been discussed and de facto accepted considering:
  • the background information given by JM on the implementation of the DAIL Implementation RIDS
  • no objection to the document circulated to the HMA AWG before the meeting (TBC by all HMA AWG).
• HMA AWG terms for secretary remain open
• Additional membership is not envisaged at the moment (to be re-discussed), however all the meetings will have an open session
• OGC and GEOSS AIP: The principle to have a FEDEO-like activity linked with the Charter Catalogue is agreed.
• 2008 Priorities have been described in the HMA Followon presentation.
• GIGAS support action should address the gaps between the HMA approach and INSPIRE and GEOSS.
• It is proposed for the HMA AWG to meet at the OGC TC (3 December 2008) and possibly have a teleconference after the EO-DAIL CDR mid october 2008. There may also be early results to be presented from:
  • ERGO EbRIM Implementation with GEONETWORK and OMAR
  • HMA-T Testbed Project(some organisation have proposed a very short planning)
