FW: [dm-open-sig] Announcing OPEN SIG Meeting,Wednesday June 21,2006 - 12:00 Noon EDT

I promised an invite to the DM OPEN NWEM interface. So, 
see below:

 

Primary discussion will be:

1. Contents of the actual interface 
specification

2. An NWEM and CAP compatible XML example 
with instructions in the form of comments.

 

To make sense of this meeting, you will need to 
understand programming, CAP, and XML, so most TC members should be fine, but 
please remember that this is a technical meeting for technical 
people.  The meeting is designed to allow progammers to 
accurately estimate the work that they will need to build an NWEM client for 
their system.

The OPEN SIG Mail List is a moderated discussion list available for 
program announcements, your questions, comments, and feedback.  See the footer at the end of each 
message for further information about the list.

 

The next meeting of the 
OPEN Special Interest Group (SIG) will be Wednesday 21 June at 12:00 EDT.  We will meet via MS Live Meeting and a 
conference bridge (see instructions below).  

 

The focus of our meeting will be the 
HazCollect interface planned for OPEN with an understanding that all 
requirements belong to the National Weather Service (NWS).  
As developers, we want to try and anticipate what is coming so that we 
can have our systems ready as soon as possible. At this meeting, you will be 
provided a first look at a draft of the specific data structure requirements for 
a Non-Weather Emergency Message as we expect them to be. A couple of changes may 
happen but the essential nature will be provided. Documentation will be in the 
form of a schema-validated CAP 1.1 message that meets the requirements.  Each tag in the message will be 
commented with any special instructions that are needed.  

 

Prior to the Wednesday 21 June 
meeting, please check out the Live Meeting and conference bridge instructions 
for participation. If you have not used Live Meeting before, please follow the 
instructions and check your access well in advance of the scheduled 
meeting.  We look forward 
to seeing and talking with you next Wednesday!
