			Many expressed that a strong benefit of joining the group was sharing projects, experiences, results, and lessons learned with each other. Specifically, the GeoMAPP informational calls were identified as particularly useful and structured calls. In addition, call participants were interested in some of the GeoMAPP products and how institutions may be using them in an "applied GeoMAPP" topical discussions.

			The group suggested structuring future calls with 30 minutes for presentations by a group member on a particular relevant topic and the remaining time for discussion.
