AW: [QB-UCR] Review comments

Hello,

A short summary of implemented feedback in the QB Use Case Document [1]:

* We stopped trying to derive requirements to the data cube specification, but instead focus on use cases and lessons.
* We present use cases that would benefit from using the new data cube specification as well as more concrete case studies that have successfully used the earlier draft version of the vocabulary.
* We derive lessons that can be used for future work on the vocabulary as well as for useful tools complementing the vocabulary. 

Thus, we changed the title to "Use Cases and Lessons for the Data Cube Vocabulary".

As such, the UC document may be useful for potential users of data cube as well as for future work on the specification.

Opinions on the current draft are appreciated.

Best,

Benedikt

Dear Bernadette, all,

Thanks for your kind words.

Since I have now implemented all feedback to the data cube use cases document [1], it would be great if in the upcoming call we can put the matter of publishing the document as a note on the agenda.

Best,

Benedikt

Hi,
Thanks for responding & working the QB-URC through. I'm sorry we had trouble hearing you today.  Thank you for making the effort to attend since you were at the ESWC conference.    We'll make sure QB-UCR is on next week's agenda for final review.

Cheers,
Bernadette

Hi Dave,

Thanks for the positive feedback.

Interesting, I had thought that the document was a mix of use cases
with
genuine requirements and case studies with lessons. A case study
being a
different thing from a use case. I wonder whether renaming the
concrete
case studies as such would help with this direction.

Good idea. By title, I will now distinguish between concrete case studies that used the data cube vocabularies and more generic use cases that would benefit from using the data cube vocabulary. From both we derive lessons to the data cube eco-system, not further specifying whether they should be fulfilled by an extension to the vocabulary specification, services or tools. So we would have:

   3.1 SDMX Web Dissemination Use Case
   3.2 Publisher Case Study: UK government financial data from Combined Online Information System (COINS)
   3.3 Publisher Use Case: Publishing Excel Spreadsheets as Linked Data
   3.4 Publisher Use Case: Publishing hierarchically structured data from StatsWales and Open Data Communities
   3.5 Publisher Case Study: Publishing Observational Data Sets about UK Bathing Water Quality
   X.X Publisher Case Study: Site specific weather forecasts from Met Office, the UK's National Weather Service <= your case study inserted and adapted
   3.6 Publisher Case Study: Eurostat SDMX as Linked Data
   3.7 Publisher Case Study: Improving trust in published sustainability information at the Digital Enterprise Research Institute (DERI)
   3.8 Consumer Case Study: Simple chart visualisations of (integrated) published statistical data from Environmental Research
   3.9 Consumer Use Case: Visualising published statistical data in Google Public Data Explorer
   3.10 Consumer Use Case: Analysing published statistical data with common OLAP systems
   3.11 Registry Use Case: Registering published statistical data in data catalogs

I still think the bulk of that section is a case study of the census
application rather than a generic use case on spreadsheet publishing.
However, I won't object to leaving as is.

Thanks for leaving me that option. I will try to make the excel spreadsheets use case a more concrete case study, and instead derive the following lessons from this case study and the Google Public Data Explorer use case:

Lessons:
* Publishers may need guidance in conversions from common statistical representations such as CSV, Excel, ARFF etc.
* Consumers may need guidance in conversions into formats that can easily be displayed and further investigated in tools such as Google Data Explorer, R, Weka etc.

Best,

Benedikt

Hi Benedikt,

OK I will attempt to write up a case study for the MetOffice example
that would be better motivation and explanation of the ISO19156 issues
than the Bathing Water on.

I've attached a draft of this for inclusion in your document when you
are ready to do so. Feel to tweak it to fit your structure if necessary.

If you are happy with it then I suggest linking lesson 4.4 to this one
instead of the Bathing Water one.

Copied to the list so I can say ...

"I believe this closes ACTION-92" :)
