== Conference Call Notes  ==

=== Breaking news  ===

* UICDS (Unified Incident Command and Decision Support) - April 29th demonstration is culmination of previously planned coordinated work. The demonstration will include a live Emergency Operating Center housing multiple-groups running against a simulation / scenario. 
** Let's align with use cases and standards defined within the UICDS effort. 
** We'd like to be included in future demonstration. 
** Contact: Chip Mahoney - Program Manager for UICDS. 
** To get software development kit, we need to fill out the survey-template.  
*** QUESTION: What name should be put in the Company field?  IRSC?, BSP?, Golden Gate Safety Network? ... 
*** NOTE: email from [[DeborahMacPherson]] received during this meeting stated she could not fill out survey at this time. 
*** SUGGESTION: Each individual wanting to connect into UICDS could send in a survey response.  The overlap of answers to questions such as "Q: What standards do you use for data formats or data exchanges?" could be an added benefit. 

* Peter Orzag (NEED: check spelling and add title) has stated that Government Agencies must pay-up for past postings before they can submit new postings to Grants.gov. 
** He has a role of FEA integrator and is involved in the administration of Grants.gov. 
** Exactly what this means and it's impact on Grant availability or timing is unknown. 

=== Project coordination  ===

* [[OpenFloorPlanDisplay]] first of a series of projects out-of IRSC and BSP. 
* Need to know how useful the Omni-class classifications will be in real-world use for floor plan display 
** Floor plan for Harney demonstration needs room classification - how smart does the classification need to be? how do we use Omni-class etc... 

=== Contacts  ===

* Brand Niemann - Federal Enterprise Architecture FEA and SOA based eGov 
* Ontologists and Ontology Engineers: Josh(?), Mathew(?), Leo(?), others from [[OntologySummit2009]] connection 
* others coming out of [[OntologySummit2009]] follow-up communications 

=== Pursuit of funding  ===

* ''General discussion'' 
** For a project to get funding there needs to be an anchor-point organization 
** Need alignment with an inside player to obtain funding 
** Ideally partner with company who is already doing First Responder Information Display work (Examples: Honeywell, Inc. and Net Talon) 
* ''Federal funding'' 
** Companies need to be registered with the Central Contractor Registry under Grants.gov 
* ''Local level funding'' 
** Take it to the local levels and understand there needs (what do they need to do their job better, faster?) 
** Show best practices in sample implementations that could be readily transferred into real use 
* ''Industry consortium funding'' 
** Not deemed likely unless through existing consortium with money set-up for demonstration, particularly since membership is often a requirement for funding eligibility 
** Given the economy, not much is being given out from Industry for out-side groups to show proof-of-concepts. 
* ''Recommendation'' 
** Focus pursuits at local level 
** Market based on specific needs and how project work can address those needs 

=== Demonstrations  ===

* Harney Building floor plan 
* St. Mary's Hospital - safety 
* Real-time data display of building information 
* BIM Storm for San Diego 
** kickoff was last Friday 
** 4-6 workshops to follow 
** wrap-up - June 10,11,12 

=== Time line  ===

=== Next steps  ===

* See where the IRSC folk stand on the topics covered here at Wednesday meeting
