FRIDAY, DECEMBER 5 |
|
| 7:30 am: | Breakfast |
|
| 8:30 am: | Joint ISPRS / CEOS WGCV Task Force Meeting
|
|
| |
| |
The objective of the Task Force meeting is to review ideas and notes obtained from the discussion sessions of the previous two days. These discussions have been linked to the specific terms-of-reference cited in the CEOS resolution, the results of which will form the basis for the Task Force's first report to WGCV and ISPRS. Results from the Task Force meeting and related discussion sessions will be compiled and edited into a report distributed to the Task Force members (defined here as all who attended the Workshop), as well as to the WGCV and ISPRS leadership for further distribution to their memberships. The intent is to address each term of reference for approximately one hour each to reach consensus and formulate recommendations evolving from the Workshop. The compilation and editing team will be selected at the close of the meeting.
As backup to the Workshop report, the Proceedings of the Workshop will be published as a peer-reviewed book. Speakers' PowerPoint presentations will be compiled onto a CD for distribution to all attendees, and for wider distribution through Stennis Space Center's Earth Science Applications Directorate. |
