Notes

(5 | 2200) Check ins

• Who is here
• Note taking? - Graham
• How are you showing up? https://feelingswheel.com/

(20 | 2205) Goal setting

Round 1: What do you want to get out of this over the fall?

• Dr. Todd-Brown: Have stuff to present by end of fall
• Vaasuki: Get publication ready (ISCN4 Methods section)
• Graham: Big Data skills (Tidyverse)
• Brandon: R and (soil) data literacy skills and seeing ontological connections (Connections between data sources)
• Kate: Injest ISRaD and ROCA
• Maggie: More participation in project in general and stats stuff
• Gabriel: Stats and R literacy (textbook and function of the week) + wiki + Longleaf pine

Round 2: Where do we want the project to get to this fall?

• Completely fleshed out wiki. Polishing and review
• Merge branches (CPEAT, iscn3, ncss, and forest service) merged in to main and connected to ISCN4 output
• Complete CPEAT
• Observe the leverage our data product provides (backend analysis)
• All the things (understand how things fit together)
• Scope out connection to ENVO and/or GloSIS (other ontologies) and potentially other data models like the OGC’s OMS (was O&M)
• Integrate ISRAD
• Look at regional skews of collection (important for acknowledging sampling bias)
• Longleaf and Smith Data sets injested (Smaller sets AND big ones)
• We’d like to include previous data sets (from ISCN3). Could be neat but maybe hard to track down citations.
• Kate has a cool old data set that needs cleaning and would like backup
  • Similarity matrix riffing on a spacial variograms 
  • 4 dimensional correlation analysis (Space + time)
• User vignette for people who want to use the repo
  • Different user profiles
  • How-to onboarding walkthrough

Highest priority items

• ** Wiki done **
• ** Merging branches **
• How-to vignette
• ISCN4 Summary Statistics/Analysis
• Pull from standard ontologies for ISCN4 variable mapping (Scoping in the fall, execution after)

(20 | 2225) Issues checkins and stuck to unstuck

• Pull up open issues and walk through in reverse order.
  • Skipped

(10 | 2245) Backlog

• What should we be talking about in the next 2-4 calls?
  • Gabriel: How-to section of wiki
    • Perhaps scope some todo issues 
    • Assess what is there and make a list of what needs doing (make a new issue “Fall Wiki Dev"
  • Vaasuki: Cpeat codebase and methods section
  • Brandon: Get familiarized with everything currenlty on the GH repo
  • Kate: Get feedback on ISRad annotations (R file on ISRad branch)
  • Maggie: Refamiliarizing and playing with some messy data (Data One and EDI.  Also Wiki.
  • Graham: Review issues. Flag cryptic notes for review in meeting.
  • Dr. Todd-Brown: Work out annotations on ISCN4
