  5. Schedule time for Google Hangout

  6. Initial draft for geospatial metadata use cases and functional requirements
    1. Discussion of level of granularity.
    2. The group looked briefly at W3C use cases for comparison.
    3. James will revise his document based on feedback from the group.
  7. Geo/PCDM Initial Vocab and Model Structure (Thanks Eric James!)
    1. What's next and how do we build on top of this work? Discuss.
    2. Discussion of the class hierarchy, and a need for a concise model.
    3. Darren will sketch some ideas for implementing more developed class hierarchy, integrating curation concerns, with basic dublin core added, supplementing it with a specific geospatial component.
    4. Questions to keep in mind:
      1. Can we reuse parts of models developed for scanned images?
      2. What about inline documentation?
      3. What can we do to implement the hierarchy with the full HydraWorks data model (i.e., collections, etc.)?
      4. ACTION ITEM: Eliot will find out more about the HydraWorks stack and report back to Darren.
  8. Questions for the PCDM community
    1. The group (or Eliot?) will formulate specific questions around the following topics and pose them to the Hydra tech list.
      1. How to store ISO/FGDC metadata
        1. As a blob within the work object's descriptive metadata?
        2. As a separate related file
      2. Are datastreams versioned?
        1. Can metadata properties be versioned?
      3. What's the volatility of the HydraWorks API (? not sure if I heard this correctly – jh)
