Meeting Notes

Reviewing the Geospatial Data Archiving Quick Reference document. Diane Papineau described the origins of the document. It came out of her experience with the GeoMAPP project and she developed it as a quick reference to hand out at a couple of GIS conferences in 2013.

She imagined the audience for the document as GIS people; data creators, anyone who has a hand on the data who "pushes the delete button." After further discussion the group felt that the document audience could be broadened to include anyone engaged in the stewardship of geospatial data, including archives and libraries.

After some document discussion, the group moved on to brainstorming possible speakers for future calls. The ideas have been added to the Speakers Series list.
