Notes

Outreach

• Certain institutions have attempted to port to developed implementations of Hyrax using GeoWorks
• Proposal to contact individual members within institutions in order to raise awareness and direct the focus of this Interest Group

GeoWorks

• Need to return to evaluating who is using GeoWorks within the community, see about providing support and assistance for those who need support for this in Hyrax

LiDAR Use Cases

• There are many interested in supporting LiDAR, but defining this as a format remains difficult
• NYU has an interest in this, offers data sets on their implementation of GeoBlacklight (https://geo.nyu.edu/catalog/nyu-2451-38625)

Community Effort

• If there are institutions which have vested interests in the outcome, perhaps we could develop a solution bundle (such as Avalon) which could be actively developed and maintained to be used as a stand-alone solution

Action Items

• James will contact UCSB, Data Curation Experts, Notch8, and other consulting firms regarding any interest in managing geospatial resources in Samvera communities
• U. Minnesota, University of Colorado, and NYU should be contacted with regards to their potential interest in Samvera geospatial development
  • James can address this
• Members are currently listed on the IG page
  • James will contact each of them, and offer a Doodle Poll should they be interested in remaining actively involved
• U. London has been actively developing the ability to generate metadata application profiles for Hyrax Works
  • James will discuss this with John Huck of the U. Alberta Libraries and then proceed with contacting Julie Allinson of the U. London

Meeting adjourned at 12:31 PDT/15:31 EDT
