RAs Only
Future Meetings

Attendees:

OSU Mapping & GIS Lab: Xutong Niu
OSU Center for Mapping: Alok Srivastava
OSU Geodesy Lab: Chung-yen Kuo
SUNY at Buffalo: Xian Xu (reported by E-mail)
Great Lakes Forecasting System Laboratory: Vasilia Velissariou (reported by E-mail)

Summary:

 Xutong reported that he has generated the bathymetry grid for the Tampa Bay modelling and has finished writing two papers for the ASPRS conference. He is working with Xian Xu on the demo for the Digital Government conference.

Chung-yen reported that he has finished processing the altimetry data for Lake Erie.

Alok has finished georeferencing the Painesville aerial photos. He has digitized bluff lines for 1973, 1990, 1994, and 2000 from aerial photos, DOQQ, and orthophotos. He predicted a bluff line for 2000 and compared it to the 2000 bluff line digitized from orthophotos.

Xian finished improvements to the ODNR permitting system. He is also working on the web services-based system and the 3D-visualization system.

Vasilia reported to Dr. Li via E-mail that she is working on producing the boundary conditions (MAROBS) in order to run the water surface model for the years 1982 to 1990. She will be able to start running the model by Monday, May 3.
