Nice, thanks Bill!

Hi Chris:

Here's a brief use case on post-wildfire emergency response:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1OCAzBpJjSxWjfCrqi8l0veT0dQMcVAVVdS_sXDgdip8/edit?usp=sharing
It's related to what we (Agriculture and Climate Cluster, ACC) have been doing the past few months on concept maps for data to decisions. Please let us know if you've any questions or want more details.

For this wildfire part of our concept map work, we've been discussing with the Disaster Lifecycle Cluster. This initial version of the use case, though, is based on what we (ACC) envision the response to be. I've shared the Google doc with Dave Jones and Katherine Rowden (NWS), so they may be modifying it.

Thanks,
Bill

Dear ESIP Discoverers,

I’d like to propose the following template for collecting use cases from some of the other clusters. I’ve gone with the bare minimum of information I think we need to identify use case. As we need more detail for particular use cases, we can go back to respondents to get it. (In fact, having that kind of dialogue is in some respects as important as the information itself.)

1.       Who am I? – I’m a state highways engineer

2.       What am I trying to do?  Predict where I’m most likely to have landslides in the next month.

3.       What do I want/need? – I want rainfall data for the last 3 months over my state. And some soil moisture wouldn’t go amiss.

4.       How do you solve this problem now? – I surf around a bunch of landslide portals, trying to suss out what kind of rainfall datasets they use.

5.       What would the Easy Button for this look like? – I go to a single applications portal, click on “Data for Landslide Prediction” and get a list of all the datasets used by a variety of landslide models and other applications.

Comments?  It would be great if we could initiate a dialogue with other clusters interested in our effort by, say, Thursday.
