Global Water Information IG session during the 8th RDA plenary, International Data Week, Denver, Sept 11-17

Dear All,
Correction of the meeting date:
The GWIIG session date should be Thursday 15 September, not Thursday 14 September.
Thanks Dave Tarboton for catching this!

Dear Colleagues,
We would like to invite you to participate in the RDA Global Water Information Interest Group session on Thursday 14 September, 14-15:30. It will be a part of the International Data Week (IDW, http://www.internationaldataweek.org/).
The main goals of the Water Interest Group within the Research Data Alliance is to bring water data infrastructure issues for discussion among RDA data experts from across disciplines and technical fields, and to explore applications of technologies and approaches developed by RDA technical groups to the water domain. See the group's charter for more details.
We are planning to discuss the following topics at the Denver meeting:
1. Dynamic data citation (followup from the previous meeting)
* Dynamic data citation in the UK National River Flow Archive
* Management of data citation in other water data sharing projects (eg HydroShare, CUAHSI WDC)
* Additional use cases for dynamic data citation in the water domain (if you are familiar with additional solutions for time series data citation - please suggest to the list, and consider presenting at the session)
2. Hydrologic vocabularies and linked data
* Vocabularies for water chemistry
* Concept of hydrologic variables as implemented in different systems
* Examples and best practice in water quality / chemistry, including examples from UK linked data service for water chemistry (http://environment.data.gov.uk/water-quality/view/landing) (again, if you familiar with additional examples and solutions, please consider presenting)
Additionally, we would like to prioritize data challenges in global hydrologic data infrastructure, and identify additional topics where interests of participants may align and lead to best practices to be further explored by the group.
Please note that IDW early bird registration deadline is August 8th, and don't hesitate to forward to others who may be interested.

Will someone from Global Water be willing to attend and summarize your effort and interest at the Domain Vocabulary Development, Standardization, Registration, Harmonization and Support Breakout  - Saturday17 Sept 11:00 - 12:30?

The idea is that each domain group will provide a brief summary of their work and as available:

 relevant vocabularies, ontoologies, standards and  perhaps an illustrative use case such as harmonization and mappings between 2 or more vocabularies/ontologies and issues involved.

We will also hope to have a community discussion of:

• The state of vocabularies and harmonization, 
• Common interests such as vocabulary development & services,
•  Issues and best practice solutions in the domain vocabulary space

It seems likely that discussion of common infrastructure, services and approaches will be helpful across domain groups and may lead to ueful liazing between groups.

Hi Gary,
I am sure either Matt or I will be able to give a brief summary, since vocabularies will be one of the GWIIG discussion topics earlier that week. Thanks for the invite,
- Ilya
