=== Notes ===

# WP4 materials 
## FAO and CNR to use the same demo format; a screencast; description  of format; intro – action – summary; in total 2-3 mins
## Ecological Niche modeling example. CNR already presented examples at TCOM. Plans to produce 4 portlets with different screencasts. 
### CNR: department can provides a style; Lino to share example with Anton. 
## Demo titles for Anton; “Upload a ts Cl and batch replace”, “Filter & send to R”
## CNR: will demo the new biodiversity functionality.  The planning is to have 2-3 screencasts per VRE
## iMarine App; Community info, e.g. only a species search input box, plus a few info sheets. Anton will try to discuss with Nicolas (no reply until 23-07)

# ICIS 
## Plans for ICIS; also in a meeting with Yann. Lino Explains what is in the scaffolds: 
### Support for Work-flow, 
### Structure support (DSD, ‘template’); 
### September CNR will deliver ‘ Read SDMX’. With DSD.  The dependency on curation to control the validity remains. 
### September Removal of duplicates. 
### However, the requirements are huge, and FAO expects this will continue until project end. Adaptive management support will always be required, just like for all comparable information systems.  
### At a later stage, the production of SDMX will start. There is however no registry integrated yet.
### CNR has dedicated Lucio and Federico to ICIS until December.   
### CNR seeks the involvement of NKUA for maps visualization
## ICIS Review document. Anton suggests to discuss mainly Discuss annex 4, then more detail. Yann’s main issues are lack of flexibility in the curation phase for aggregating, lack of structure support (DSD), and lack of work-flows (with update policies) 
### Yann identified next steps:
### a
### another
## SPREAD; FAo asked about the CNR support to the scenario. (Read from FAO, import / export JSON, an algoritm, WPS, Vizualization)
### FAO can postpone reading geospatial data from FAO. 
### JSON; Lino re-allocation can be done using JSON. Propose export import JSON. Will verify with Federico. Data access and storage as TimeSeries in the e-infrastructure, and also the WPS for re-allocation algorithm is part of the e-infrastructure. 
## FAO will have to elaboarte on the requirements for vizualization. 
# Plans for reporting features based on FCPPS;  
## off-line tool for FishFinder,  and 
## geo features for VME DB
## off-line tool for FishFinder,  
## Lino : Can offer a distro for a laptop. Part for authors to write, import / export from a file, not from workspace. JAVA desktop application. 
## Anton Suggests server 2 go or similar, only need to interact with MyDocuments folder, some folder organization suggestions
## PP: Will discuss features in CNR
## Anton The new VMEDB may require geo features 
## PP: Asks for requirements. Activity to start in 2013
# COTRIX; on an rdf store, add versioning and codelist mapping.
## AE: Align with FAO initiatives in software, e.g. data.fao.org and VocBench, all seemingly moving to OWLIM 5. 
## Anton: trying to recruit a developer in Bangkok to add versioning and time dimension to VoCBench. Also allows to generate private codelists from published ones. 
# VRMF: 
## Anton suggest that Federico and Fabio Simeoni discuss with F.Fiorellato on mutual benefits. 
## Lino notes that CNR has participated in a similar project. A real opportunity for collaboration because the need also exists elsewhere: 
## Also needed in the Biodiversity area for reconciliation. 
## Also the gazetteer, mentioned by DGMARE. Beginning October.
