Cameron,

The meeting was very constructive and, despite some technical hurdles, we were 
able to get Martin dialed into the session.  Everything was recorded and the 
slides are publicly available.  I will be working this evening to get assets to 
our public repository and notes as soon as possible.  We have a commitment from 
OGC membership to form a Domain Working Group to address Point Cloud activities 
and that group will be open to the public.  That Domain Working Group has as 
first work items consideration of authoring a Best Practice on the use of the 
current standards / de facto standards in the LiDAR community and a possible 
Interoperability Experiment.  A few members and I will work on expediting the 
stand-up of this Domain Working Group - occurring as I type this note.

To recap, here were the speakers and topics:

•Scott Simmons, OGC: Introduction to Point Cloud discussion and summary of 
standards efforts
•Jeff Young, ASPRS: ASPRS activities with LiDAR data
•Chris Little, UK Met Office: What (where and when) is the Point in Meteorology
•Keith Ryden, Esri: Enterprise community requirements for point clouds
•Jason Smith, Exelis (NGA): Sensor Independent Point Cloud (SIPC) data format, 
a profile of HDF5
•Michael Gerlek, RadiantBlue: Current situation and future work for point clouds
•Peter Baumann: Point clouds in coverages
•Martin Isenburg, OSGeo: Open Source community drivers for point cloud standards
•Doug O’Brien, IDON Technologies: ISO and point cloud standards

Best Regards,
Scott
