  13. Assignment of GEO 2007-2009 Tasks to Committees • The C4 examined the list of open issues related to the assignment of GEO 2007-2009 Tasks to Committees • All open issues have been resolved & agreed: • The supervision of some tasks have been transferred from one Committee to another one (see slide #14) • For some tasks, close explicit coordination and cooperation between Committees has been proposed (see slide #15) Slide # 13

  14. Task transfer between Committees Slide # 14

  15. Explicit Coordination at Task Level • Coordination between committees identified explicitly for several tasks (GEO 2007-2009 WP): • Tasks supervised at start by one Committee and later by another Committee • Committee’s representatives involved in Task Teams supervised by another Committee • Task supervised by two Committees together Slide # 15

  16. List of “Co-Supervised” Tasks • Tasks supervised at start by one Committee and later by another one • DA-06-04“Data, Metadata and Products Harmonisation”: First by UIC then ADC • Committee’s representatives involved in Task Teams supervised by another Committee • DA-07-03 “Virtual Constellations” and DA-07-04 “Sensor Web Enablement” by ADC with strong involvement of UIC in Task Teams + potential support at UIC level • Task supervised by two Committees together • Jointly supervised by UIC and STC: • HE-07-02, the Environment and Health Monitoring and Modelling • WA-07-01, the Global Water Quality Monitoring • WA-07-02, the Satellite Water Quantity Measurements and Integration with In-situ Data Slide # 16

  17. Implicit Coordination at Task Level • Several tasks supervised by one Committee could benefit from inputs generated by other Committees or be of interest to other Committees. • Examples: • “GEO Web Portal” (AR-07-02) needs inputs from UIC as developed to serve Users • Presentation of the GEOSS Core Components (Clearinghouse, Geo Web Portal, Registries) to be used by the “non-ADC” Task Teams Slide # 17
