Summary

 

This meeting was devoted to present the presentations that the research team will present in the next Digital Government Conference that will be held in Boston, MA in the period May 18-21, 2003. Four presentations have been presented as follows.

 

 

Xian Xu reported that he had a conversation with Xutong Niu about his next tasks in the project. He started thinking and preparing to make the program capable of having a browser that expose users only to some data names and allow users to give a position and a data type that the program will download certain geo datasets automatically.

 

Action List

           

The research team will work on refining the presentations and preparing the demo for the DG conference.

 

·        OSU Mapping & GIS Lab

o    Dr. Ahmed Elaksher and    Ruijin Ma will work on assessing the Lake Erie shoreline extracted from the IKONOS imagery.

o       Ruijin Ma will work on the coastal structure permitting part in the demo.

o       Xutong Niu will work on the data integration and evaluation part in the demo.

      

 

·        Center for Mapping

o       Tarig Ali will work on the coastal erosion (for Painesville area) part in the demo.

 

·        OSU Geodesy Lab

o       Chung-Yen Kuo and Kai-chien (Kevin) Cheng will work on reprocessing the satellite altimetric data to filter out the influence of the low-frequency changes in satellite altimetric observations.

·        Great Lakes Forecasting System Laboratory

¡       Vasilia Velissariou will work on the Great Lake Forecasting system to modify the time interval of the outputs from the system to match the satellite altimetric data resolution.

 

·        SUNY at Buffalo

o       Xian Xu will complete his work on the following tasks:

1. Make the program capable of having a browser that expose users only to some data names.

2. Allow users to give a position and a data type that the program will download certain geo datasets automatically.

§         Future Meetings:

o       The next RA only meeting will be Thursday, May 15, 2003
