Special Issue of the IEEE TGRS on “Inter-Calibration of Satellite Instruments”:

Agree Agenda Minute Taking
Dohyeong Kim
(GRWG Chair)

2. Ways of working Presenters have been asked to follow this format:
An overview of the task you have been asked to discuss
The purpose of the presentation
Some example requirements
Propose 1 or 2 strawman solutions, outlining pros and cons
A draft deliverable with your assessment of the priority, timescale and resources needed
 Each presentation will lead directly into a discussion.
Items c), d) and e) will then be edited on the fly by the chair during the discussion.
Please keep presentations short - slots only 20 minutes, and we need to ensure plenty of time for discussion.
