GW2IE Meeting 24 -- Wed 29 Oct 2014 -- Report

Agenda

• General update
  • AGU 2014
    • Abstract
  • Meeting start time shift
    • begin 1 hour earlier than below starting Nov: vote here
  • OGC approval process for GW2IE Report
    • can be approved anytime following post to pending docs, 3 week review, and poll of OGC TC and PC by Carl Reed
• Technical Issues
  • 'Nucleaus' package name: vote here
  • 'Data Record' proposed encoding: vote here
  • add Pump entity: vote here
  • mandatory properties: eliminate ?
    • effect: data providers can serialize only those properties that contain data
  • unit properties: change to [0...*] ?
    • to allow for non-synoptic properties i.e distributed spatially throughout the unit (permeability, transmissivity, etc.) (see proposal GwmlDistributedValues)
    • synoptic (summary) properties identified by lack of location in the observation / measurement
• Report Update
• Use-case Update

Results

• Meeting start time shift
  • begin 1 hour earlier on Nov 12 (see times below)
  • new poll for start times (morning AU-NZ, aft NA, evening EU)
• Technical Issues
  • 'Nucleaus' package name
    • Renamed: package to "GWML2-Main"
    • Francois to propagate changes to logical model, XML schema; instances to be adjusted by creators
    • Unchanged: package namespace (gwml2)
  • 'Data Record'
    • Accepted proposed encoding
    • Francois to propose solution to put online Data Record definitions
  • add Pump entity:
    • To be added: pump device to construction class
      • Proposal to be drafted for next meeting: ideas/examples to be sent to Eric (lead)
      • Possible attributes include: pump type (from vocab), pump model (free text), pump purpose (well test, other), capacity,...
    • To be added: well test class (procedure/process for conducting a pumping test)
      • Proposal to be drafted for next meeting: ideas/examples to be sent to Sylvain (lead)
      • Contains: inputs, results, methods, times
      • Potentially model as subclass of OM_Observation or OM_Process; results as GW_FluidProperties.
      • Add as attribute to Well (to directly link a well test to a well... as a convenient short-cut)
  • mandatory properties: eliminate ?
    • new poll to be created
    • to be finalized next meeting
  • unit properties: change to [0...*] ?
    • Bruce: current model suffices if every value considered to occur in a different fluid body part
      • pros: low-effort, solved without model changes
      • cons: clunky, not typical usage, bundled (as UnitFluidProperty as a whole)
  • need to discuss:
    • change strategy
    • FluidBody = liquid and/or gas?
