Dalia & All,    (03)


Great suggestions, Dalia, thanks!    (04)

I have posted your input to the "GettingOrganized" wiki page
under: 
http://ontolog.cim3.net/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?EarthScienceOntolog/GettingOrganized#nid3DB8    (05)

Please consider the following tweaks (to 1 & 2) ...    (06)

1. Value propositions (needs, criteria, use case scenarios, benefits, etc.)
2. Existing successful applications (perhaps as a case studies) -
including: Spatial Decision Support, ... (offers/suggestions
solicited)
3. Review of the field of ontologies for earth science (and existing ontologies)
4. Methodologies: including, what *is* semantics, image approaches, etc.
5. Tutorials    (07)


ALL - action:    (08)

AA. please provide further input - tweaks, enhancements, finer grain
details, etc.    (09)

BB. if you like to champion (or find a partner and co-champion) either
one of the sessions, please step up and "adopt" it.    (010)


Thanks & regards. =ppy
