---++ Pre-Workshop Meeting
|
|
|
|
A pre workshop meeting will be held on Wed 21 March 2007 at 14h00 GMT. Logs of this meeting are available [[http://linfiniti.com/irclogs/%23biogeosdi.21-03-2007.log][here]] Important points from the meeting follow:
|
|
|
|
* GBIF are planning a funded implementation similar to what we will be doing at the workshop, so the products from this workshop will be useful to inform their decisions in their project.
|
|
* There will be two key outputs from the workshop
|
|
1. A document describing problems, issues etc. when trying to use standard web services to carry out our simple NicheAnalysisProcess
|
|
2. A web based prototype that exposes our basic workflow through a simple we interface.
|
|
* Before the meeting participants are asked to identify a suitable taxonomic group for testing that will have a decent amount of data in each of the services we plan to use.
|
|
* We will try to document our progress as we go, though we dont expect the document to be completed at the end of the workshop.
|
|
|
|
|
|

The web service is soap using document / literal style.
|
|
|
|
---+++ Catologue of Life
|
|
|
|
There are basically two ways to access the CoL programmatically:
|
|
|
|
1. Use the SOAP webservice to the Dynamic Checklist
|
|
2. Use the GET > XML response style wrapper to the Annual Checklist
|
|
|
|
There is a webservice to the Annual Checklist being developed/completed but I
|
|
haven't seen it yet and so I'm not sure if i'll have access to it before next
|
|
week!
|
|
|
|
Seeing as the Annual Checklist is superior in both quality and quantity of
|
|
data, Peter Brewer suggest for us to use the GET > XML response style wrapper.
|
|

---++ How do we work
|
|
(Tim)
|
|
I would suggest we form 2 man teams and 'buddy program'. Day 1 we will do some planning. My suggestion would be that we hive off into smaller groups to mock up web ui, api etc. The following days we start implementing. Because the time is short we can do everything 'live' dropping code and web stuff into svn as we create it and deploy it on a test server at the same time. Pretty much I am suggesting some 'extremely extreme' programming.
|
|
|
|
I'd suggest we start on the planning day with mockup of the web ui (perhaps people could bring along their ideas if they have time?) and then work out how the framework should look.
