Outline of Agenda

The basic outline of the agenda is as follows:

  • Monday: Plenary Session - “Mini Conference” (interesting items that are not yet directly linked to GSICS Products)
    • The Mini Conference allows meeting participants and observers to present their recent calibration activities, which may not be covered in the agenda of the main meeting, but are nevertheless of interest to development of future inter-calibration products.
  • Tuesday: Plenary Session - Reports and Briefs
    • Management Reports - GRWG/GDWG/GCC Chairs to give reports on the achievements of the last year and brief on planned activities for this year.
    • Agency Reports - Each member agency is invited to provide a presentation to present their progress regarding the actions of previous meetings. Other issues of concern to each agency and plans on inter-calibration activities may also be reported.
    • Cross-cutting Topics among GRWG/GDWG/GCC may also be discussed.
  • Wednesday & Thursday: Break-out sessions for GRWG/GDWG (2-3 parallel sessions at the maximum).
  • Friday: Plenary Session - Discussing remaining cross-cutting issues, reporting outcomes, and planning future meetings.
