    OWL and looking at how spatial and temporal can be represented

    kerry: thank you for joining
    ... no one else is new?
    ... now next item on agenda is face to face meeting

    <adila> cperey, Wright State University

    kerry: head around the meeting info, no agenda set yet
    ... expect to deliver first use cases draft following the
    meeting
    ... focusing on use cases between now and then
    ... how to fit, group, questoins, etc

    <kerry> [15]http://www.opengeospatial.org/event/1503t

      [15] http://www.opengeospatial.org/event/1503t

    kerry: find there how to register, and also info on
    accommodations
    ... if you are unfamiliar with OGC, and you are not an OGC
    member, you will need to pay

F2F meeting in Barcelona

    kerry: something like $200/day
    ... dinner an extra $65 or go for the whole week for $350

    <KJanowicz> Is the link broken?

    <ianh_> I get 404 from link

    kerry: OGC members get free or reduced cost registration

    <kerry> [16]http://www.opengeospatial.org/event/1503tc

      [16] http://www.opengeospatial.org/event/1503tc

    chris litte: maybe talk with Denise, she may waive the daily
    fee for presenters

    <Payam> +q

    Andreas: I didn't need to pay when I registered

    kerry: had to pay and I told them I was OGC

    <KJanowicz> s/[17]http://www.opengeospatial.org/event/1503t /
    [18]http://www.opengeospatial.org/event/1503tc

    kerry: it seems like people need to test and try for themselves
    ... takes an action to talk with Denise about this

    <aharth> Order Grand Total: $0.00, and I'm not a member

    <Payam> I also registered and didn't need to pay- unless I have
    registered for the wrong event!

    <Payam> -q

    kerry: thanks, Andreas, maybe it's going to get clearer

    <LieberJosh> The dinner is usually a good value -- except for
    the speeches

    <scribe> ACTION: Kerry to check payment situation [recorded in
    [19]http://www.w3.org/2015/02/04-sdw-minutes.html#action01]

    <trackbot> Created ACTION-2 - Check payment situation [on Kerry
    Taylor - due 2015-02-11].

    AZ: ask if it is possible you join remotely

    kerry: yes

    chrislittle: it will be a GoTo Meeting

    kerry: probably won't work with Zakim and IRC

    <Simon> Typical OGC arrangement for a joint meeting is that fee
    is waived for the day of the meeting, but if you attend the
    rest of the meeting you have to pay. But should be verified
    with Denise/Ingo

    kerry: probably better for it all to be in IRC
    ... also about meeting: on the wiki I have added under the mtgs
    page, under face to face

    <kerry> [20]https://www.w3.org/2015/spatial/wiki/Meetings

    F

      [21] https://www.w3.org/2015/spatial/wiki/Attending_Barcelona_F2F

    kerry: there's a place for details, go there for writing if you
    are coming, or not, or by IRC
    ... let us know what you plan so we can plan the meeting
    ... first page is about meeting, second link is where you write
    down what you are doing
    ... very simple
    ... everyone will need to edit the wiki

    NO CLUE!!!

    that's a Phila question: No

    kerry: moving on to next agenda item, we want to talk about use
    cases
    ... we want to have pruning and disucssion to produce first
    draft of first deliverable

Use Cases

    <Zakim> AZ, you wanted to ask if it will be possible to join
    the meeting by teleconference

    <Payam> +q

    AZ: on use cases, I have something: we would like to add an
    intelligent trnasport systems use cases, maybe several use
    cases
    ... transportation is quite broad domain; public transport,

    kerry: please do, fabulous driver for what we do

    <KJanowicz> use cases are due next week

    kerry: if you have doubts about relevance, add any way
    ... please write up
    ... is everyone clear about where to put them?
    ... can someone put the Link in?

    <Simon>

      [23] https://www.w3.org/2015/spatial/wiki/Working_Use_Cases

    <AZ> I've seen the wikipage

    kerry: there's a few already there
    ... do it today and tomorrow!

    <kerry> ack

    Chris Little: I've put some up there, I've asked someone I know
    who works for Cross Rail

    Chris Little: using 3GIS, and OGC standards, lots of things
    dont work

    chris Little: I've asked that they write up a use case on
    tunnels

    <aharth> +1 for 3d

    Chris Little: also asked someone to work up a medical use case

    <phila> ACTION: phil to contact Stony Brook Uni re medical use
    case [recorded in
    [24]http://www.w3.org/2015/02/04-sdw-minutes.html#action02]

    <trackbot> Created ACTION-3 - Contact stony brook uni re
    medical use case [on Phil Archer - due 2015-02-11].

    <Simon> Will we evaluate use-cases to determine if they are
    'specialized' or 'on the web'?

    <FransKnibbe> Glad to see 3D in the use cases

    Chris Little: we are also trying to get use caes developed for
    weather forecast to predict bed use in hospital

    Payam: we have smart city project wth 101 use cases

    <Payam> [25]http://www.ict-citypulse.eu/scenarios/

      [25] http://www.ict-citypulse.eu/scenarios/

    Payam: do we want to add them one by one? Are all these
    relevant?

    kerry: we may need to do soem work to check through them
    ... we may need to rewrite a little maybe combine some, not
    familiar but
    ... we are going to need to select some, expanded a great deal
    by that

    Payam: we also have the data for some of these, I'll have the
    link for that in a minute

    kerry: please put a link to data for your use case

    <Payam> Link to datasets: [26]http://iot.ee.surrey.ac.uk:8080

      [26] http://iot.ee.surrey.ac.uk:8080/

    kerry: we will need the data before acceptable as a
    recommendation

    <KJanowicz> an even more basic question that we have not
    explicitly clarified. Will this group be about semantics?

    kerry: comment earlier from Simon

    <Payam> Link to smart city use-cases:
    [27]http://www.ict-citypulse.eu/scenarios/

      [27] http://www.ict-citypulse.eu/scenarios/

    Simon: my concern is that some use cases are highly
    specialized, and we need to keep things under control

    <KJanowicz> +1

    <ChrisLittle> +1

    Simon: we have to be a little circumspect with use cases that
    are only of interest in a technical community

    kerry: we plan to develop some key questions that help us to
    decide if/how to keep use cases
    ... we only agreed that we would assess if they are Niche or
    not
    ... we still don't want to cut out use cases for the moment
    ... if something comes up a lot we might detect a pattern

    <Simon> Overlap x-community use-cases shold have priority

    <Payam> -q

    Raul: here at UPM we have quality, earthquake, and
    transportation data

    kerry: thank you that would be fabulous, Transport is almost
    like a themne

    Christophe: even broader question, not just use cases but what
    particular way to address them

    Krzysztof: do we commit ourselves on if we want to develop
    semantics and modeling, or broader

    <Payam> +q

    kerry: anyone want to discuss this?

    Payam: my response: what do you think Christophe? do you have
    any questions

    Krzysztof: my suggestion is that what we did was to look at
    past use cases and look for where we will apply
    ... but if we are equally cinclusive, do we commit to different
    methods of addressing

    <Payam> good point

    Krzysztof: if you look at the agenda (charter?) of the group we
    dont' say that we are concerned with semantics and data models,
    yadayada
    ... we could say we do geomteri

    Bart: I think we should stick to what's in the charter
    ... When not mentioned in the charter, we don't need that here

    kerry: we certainly have the charter to constrain us, we could
    change it a bit but that would be exceptional
    ... there are technologies mentioned in the charter, those will
    be our focus, no doubt, a few specifically named

    <FransKnibbe> Let's keep options open at the moment, I think it
    is good to have an overview of all problems out there, We could
    focus later based on capabilities of group members.

    kerry: a lot of questions will be a function of who is in the
    group
    ... those in the group will have influence in what comes out
    ... use cases, apply a scope filter on use cases, but we get to
    determine what that is
    ... we should be working through as a team

    <Zakim> phila, you wanted to tallk about charter

    phila: yep, so, uh, the charter is the document that took 9
    months to agree on. It had to be agreed on by both standards
    ... please don't change the charter or we have to start over
    again
    ... you can interpret the deliverables
    ... there's some wiggle room in the charter, in reality we are
    two wG's and the same charter and same chairs and meet at same
    time
    ... but should one side decide to go off on their own
    ... we only have 2 years to delivery 4 pretty chunky documents
    ... we hope that this will point to new and future standards
    ... please don't touch the charter

    <KJanowicz> hmm, but this was not about changing the charter

    kerry: hope we do not go off in different directions, but it is
    interesting to know that we can follow up work separately

    <LieberJosh> There are distinct targets in the charter. Two of
    them specify ontology explicitly, so there is certainly a
    semantic element here

    <phila> phila: From the charter "Subject to its capacity, the
    working groups may choose to develop additional relevant
    vocabularies and specifications in response to community
    demand. For example: a standard method for converting between
    spatial ontologies; methods to access a subset of a large
    dataset in terms of its spatial component. Such additional work
    may be carried out by one or other WG independently of the
    other."

    kerry: do hope that during the duration we can work on the same
    page/same deliverables

    ChrisLittle: in past telco's we talked about use case scope to
    see what people are interested in
    ... we will have content to put in the longer term road map.
    Only concern I have is that the use cases are easy to
    assimilate for non-experts

    kerry: we may feature some as representative to make it easier

    <KJanowicz> q_

    <FransKnibbe> Keeping good relationships with related working
    groups and communities could help in getting things done. We do
    not have to work in isolation.

    sorry, maybe issue is that I didn't write in name correctly

    kerry: go ahead Josh

    Josh: when we discussed use cases, we also discussed whether to
    work on questiosn, the point about the charter
    ... we should have both of those focused on the charter, but
    use cases that fit in the net plausibly addressed by
    standardization target of the group
    ... great to note that but as Phil said, there's enough to do
    here

    <kerry> aq?

    kerry: people can decide if it is relevant for them
    ... anyone who has a use case that we have not heard from yet?
    ... quick mention?

    <Simon> I have solicited uc's from Land and Water team at CSIRO

    Matt: I've looked at integrating different data sets into a
    triple store to query, I can write something up along those
    lines

    kerry: ...

    <scribe> ACTION: Matt to write up use case [recorded in
    [28]http://www.w3.org/2015/02/04-sdw-minutes.html#action03]

    <trackbot> Error finding 'Matt'. You can review and register
    nicknames at <[29]http://www.w3.org/2015/spatial/track/users>.

      [29] http://www.w3.org/2015/spatial/track/users

    I'm not good at that, sorry

    <FransKnibbe> I noticed it helps to follow the use case
    template and indicate related topics in the title. That helps
    in keeping the use case related to the charter.

    can people action themselves

    <Linda> I'll write one also

    Phila are you catching this?

    <phila> [43]http://www.w3.org/respec/guide.html

      [43] http://www.w3.org/respec/guide.html

    Phila: to reassure people, we have a tool Respec, handles all
    the boilerplate stuff
    ... it's not as scary as you might think
    ... important thing is that it's not all about HTML editing
