Registration
is now closed for this event.
NOAA
and UCAR’s Unidata
Program are sponsoring a workshop to develop Community Standards for
Unstructured Grids on October 16-17, 2006 in Boulder, Colorado. The
goal of the workshop will be to agree upon a provisional profile (i.e.
metadata standards) for unstructured grid data in netCDF based upon
an evaluation of the existing candidate profiles and issues that we
identify. To this end, we are limiting attendance to about 25-30
key people and expect this to be a highly technical meeting. The discussions
that we begin at the workshop will be continued through an open, moderated
web site, leading to a well-tested and widely-accepted standard for
publication. A second workshop may be held about six months later
if deemed necessary.
