  • Agenda

    • None - perhaps a mistake given the meeting complexity!

  • Notes

    • This meeting took place via Access Grid although it was originally planned to be a three way discussion between Mike, Andy and Chris others were invited in an attempt to be open and efficient.
      • I had technical difficulty with the Access Grid Facility at the School of Geography mainly caused by it being switched off.
        • I joined the meeting on an audio feed using my office telephone.
    • Steven Pickles gave a presentation to intoduce the NGS and explain what NGS can do for data providers and what is out of scope
      • What does it mean to Grid Enable data?
        • What does it mean to make data available in grid friendly ways?
      • NGS can only provide something like a monthly cache and none of the data is backed up
      • Shebangs and Shibgrid are more to deal with users that don't have a UK eScience certificate rather than authenticating to multiple data providers.
      • Simon Collins(sp?) is joining the NGS team at Manchester as a data consultant.
    • Chris Higgins gave an overview of the GeoLinking IE work
    • Good discussion
    • Mike is allowing a great deal of flexibility for the MoSeS NCeSS e-Infrastructure work

  • Action List

    • Andy Turner
      • Draft a Use Case for the MoSeS NCeSS e-Infrastructure work
        • Consider including the grid enabling of OSMM?
        • Seperate to the GeoLinking IE Use Case, but this can be part of it...
    • Ken Miller to contact others about which datasets to Grid Enable:
      • Andy Turner thinking:
        • EDINA Data
          • UK-Borders
          • OS Master Map
        • MIMAS Data
          • Census
          • BHPS
        • UKDA Data
          • Stats 19
        • MoSeS Data
          • Demographic Model Outputs (mainly forecasts from dynamic model)
