Greetings! The 2021 ESIP Winter Meeting is around the virtual corner. Dave and I met to formulate a draft session, focused on the extraordinary wildfire disasters on the west coast. I submitted a draft session proposal and Dave is reaching out to a list of potential speakers. There’s plenty of time for comments, edits and suggestions for speakers. January 26-28 is going to be busy in the virtual word as the All Hazards Consortium is hosting the 2021 Resilience Summit at the same time. Fortunately the virtual world is very flexible and you can be in 2 places at the same time!

This week we will go over the plans for our proposed session, which is copied below. The winter meeting session is intended to kick of more detailed follow on sessions over the winter months, continuing to provide feedback to agencies and private sector data providers on data usability. Hope you can join us.

2021 ESIP Winter Meeting Session: TBD (January 26 - 28, 2021)

California experienced its largest wildfire season on record with a single wildfire burning more than 1 million acres. Data has been crucial to inform decision makers and innovation is being applied. This session will dive into the public-private benefits of putting trusted data to work as we tie into the ESIP theme of ‘Leading Innovation in Earth Science Frontiers’. The California Wildfires of 2020 demonstrated that disasters can be on-going and multi-dimensional with COVID-19, evacuations, and destroyed towns. We will discuss key trusted data needs and identify additional opportunities for data applications in support of life saving operations. How can coordination and data sharing accelerate public-private situational awareness and decision making? Are there steps that agencies could take to successfully share their data with decision makers and the public?

Possible Speakers: 

Ted Kaouk, U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Chief Data Officer, has been selected chair of the federal Chief Data Officers (CDO) Council.
Isaac Cabrera, CIO State of California
Dr. Ravan Ahmadov, NOAA ESRL HRRR Smoke Model Scientist (Operational by Jan?)
Dr. Dennis Staley, USGS Hazards Program, Research Physical Scientist  
Sam Batzli, Univ of Wisconsin-CIMSS, GOES-POES Satellite derived Burn Scars
Kathryn Rowden, NWS Western Region Wildfire Program Manager
