Breakout Session:
Five groups with ~6-8 people in each and each addresses one of the questions to meet sub-objective to definehigh-level driving objectives for developing an observing system |
| • What are the use cases and driving capability needs (e.g., 15 min repeat, 100 m pixel, latency of 15 minutes or less)? |
Joaquin Ramirez - Tecnosylva |
| • What are the data management needs? What are the data access and distribution needs (e.g., tools and software)? |
Kate Dargan - Intterra |
| • What are the data science (ML/AI) needs to turn data into useful information? |
Jack Dangermond - Esri |
| • What can federal and state agencies do to enable better collaboration that breaks through traditional funding silos? If needed, how can new systems best be paid for? |
Teresa Feo - CA Council on Science and Technology |
| • What are the best ways for private companies to interact with the government to productively engage on the fire detection problem? What is needed? |

Breakout Session:
Five groups with ~6-8 people in each and each addresses one of the questions to meet sub-objective to outlinea plan for developing such an observing system |
| • How do we work together across organizations? What is needed to bring the many together in a coordinated approach? What are the next steps? |
Harvey Fineberg - Moore Foundation |
