  2. Introduction • CDC data: meaningful and translatable • Communicate with county- and state-level health professionals • Milestone 1 goal • CDC data more accessible • How to accomplish that goal?

  3. Study design • Interview: Chris Uejio • Identified areas for further evaluation • Discussed issues faced by CDC grantees while accessing data • Interview: Shubhayu Saba • Changed our focus (less technical) • Emphasized metadata • Comparative analysis • Climate data interfaces • Downscaled datasets

  4. Study Results • Original focus • Technical details of working with climate data • Considered R, SAS, other statistical packages • Altered focus • Grantees want to understand… • How are climate measurements generated? • What are limitations? • How do we interpret those measurements? • Can we gather this type of information together from multiple resources?

  5. Ideation and Selection Scale: 1=not at all true, 5=very true

  6. Refined Scope and Concepts • Where does downscaled data come from? • What variables go into it? • What does it mean? • How can I use it in my region? • How have other people used it in their local areas?

  7. Conclusion • Well-defined scope • Focus on one climate indicator • Provide documentation about how to interpret data • Future work • Interview county-level stakeholder • Better define user base
