1. Issues Summary List for PoDAG

2. Actions List Issues Thorsten Markus AI, should he pursue?  Now wrapped into the workshop development HARA disposition  Do not update current HARA data set  Francis/Schweiger funded by NOAA SEARCH to assemble latest rawindsonde data from 45 deg northward. Suggested that this data set when available in 3 years or so, become the revised HARA set. NSIDC will have to negotiate with NOAA to distribute the data, as NOAA is a partner in development of this data set  Suggest that NSIDC direct users to the CARDS data at NCDC for updates to HARA until the Francis/Schweiger data set is available. NSIDC Core data management activities report  No comments LTA activities  No comments on the report given Scatterometry data sets  Proceed with development of a jump page for these data  Not clear if NSIDC should acquire scatterometry data or simply link to other providers FTP statistics  Need to complete ftp statistics analysis  PoDAG wants more metrics on data use and users. Not so much for PoDAG to check up on NSIDC but so that a user baseline is established for purposes of justifying NSIDC programs

3. Data Sets Historical “AWS” Climate Data  Distribute as is, do not add to the current data set  Investigate duplications at other centers Melt On-set Data Set reprocessing  Continue distribution  Link to new sensor using best matching technique which makes the product continuous and document that inter-calibration technique has changed.  Try to document errors Sea Ice Motion Data Sets  Proceed with distribution of current product  Proceed with ingest and continuation of the timeseries SDO-EVE opportunity  Proceed with caution  Make sure the effort is separate from the DAAC and NSIDC Scatterometry Data Sets  Proceed with jump page F-10 SSM/I Wentz Tapes Status  Delete them Snow Water Equivalent Data  Post the jump page PARCA  Identify gaps in current holdings  Evaluate current sites that maintain linked holdings. Move those that seem at risk to NSIDC

4. PoDAG Members New Chairman  Dr. Mark Anderson, University of Nebraska Departures:  Greg Hunolt  Dave Bromwich? Nominations for new members  Names discussed, no actions taken

5. Other Topics NSIDC involvement in non-EOS missions  CLPP  SSMI  NPP/NPOESS  HYDROS  AQUARIUS  GPM Shifts in NASA ESE Data Management Strategic planning

6. Other Topics – Continued Should all PoDAG meetings be in Boulder?  ESDIS has placed a $25K per year cost cap on our UWG meetings.
