4. Update from Soil Science Society of America meeting (Chuck, Assim)
Many talks that don't call themselves DSM are using the very same techniques as us Met with Daniel S from OMAFRA; mapping projects in Peterborough and Ottawa counties Potential Collaboration with Grant Domke regarding North American carbon map.

Tasks
1. Contributors - create map products (any extent, any scale) a) eg1 carbon maps for each province using specifications eg2 regional carbon maps eg3 national maps for forests eg4 national maps for agricultural areas eg5 national map for the north b) masks for eg bedrock, wetlands, urban, water c) Point data d) suggest AB BM CB BH JD XG GL JB SS 2. Aggregators - assemble contributions into final map a) prioritize / merge / overlay / mosaic / blend b) fill gaps c) suggest CB SS BL JB XG BM 3. Data repository a) contributors store their own datasets to achieve 1a. b) aggregators store outputs from 1a, 1b and final products c) wiki serves as data repository (i) contributors post original links to all input data - cded, canvec, srtm, imagery, lcc 2000 (ii) contributors post metadata for links - extent, scale, license (could be 'don't know') (iii) contributors post methods used to process data from 3c(1) - eg SAGA - GIS for slope, aspect, wetness, mrvbf - eg NDVI from landsat cloud free date range - etc d) proposed structure for wiki based data repository: Shapes Land Soils... cansis detailed http://sis.agr.gc.ca/cansis/nsdb/dss/v3/index.html slc http://sis.agr.gc.ca/cansis/nsdb/slc/v2.2/index.html bc soil surveys Geology...
