<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">We had a fantastic group of nine folks call in for this meeting. Kathe walked through the data descriptors on
<a href="https://github.com/ESIPFed/SOI_harmonization">https://github.com/ESIPFed/SOI_harmonization</a> . Mark S pointed out that a public URI should really be linked in the ‘thesaurus’ portion of the data descriptors (but I’m not quite sure I understood the
point correctly here so please feel free to clarify/correct me). There was some back and forth on the specificity of the column names vs method descriptions that will be fun to continue to untangle in later conversations. How sampling and processing fit into
these data descriptions and when we need to address them in the harmonization process is still an open issue.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Independent of these data descriptors, we are starting to collect representations of sample location, organic carbon, bulk density, and hydrologic connectivity in the Issues here:
<a href="https://github.com/ESIPFed/SOI_harmonization/issues">https://github.com/ESIPFed/SOI_harmonization/issues</a> We talked fairly extensively about what should be included in the location identification and horizon designation was proposed as a possible
addition. If you work with a specific data product please feel free to add your descriptions. Current loose plan is that after we have 4-6 descriptions collected we’ll take a look at specific ontologies associated with individual measurements and see what
needs to be extended to describe the data holdings.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Our next meeting is <b>10 March 2021 at 1700 UTC</b> and will be a community presentation by Emilio Mayorga. Stay tuned for details!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
