Mon, June 27 2011: ProgramsTwo main arcs - how do we choose programs, and how do we administer/run them? This is an overview and initial conversation, we should follow up with a big meeting in Sept. - work charts, problem trees, etc. Recommend we form groups around program areas today, we can shuffle later & revisit in Sept, and that we come to some consensus on what our program areas are? Both today, and what we’d like them to be in the near future. Choosing programsSummary of current programs (help out, add in stuff where you can!): How should we define a program? A program is an issue area or topic, There are also cross cutting practices. 1 Petro-chemical industries and extraction industries
2 Environmental health (in many cases related to the above)
3 (this one needs work) Changes [sustainable] land usage? Ecological sustainability?
Working groups:First name is chairperson/lead coordinator for the group's topic: 1 Outreach - conferences, meet ups, barnraising, exhibitions - Sara, shannon, jeff mathew 2 Retail - kits: Adam, Stewart, Jeff, Mathew 3 Fundraising- Jeff, Shannon, Adam, Mathew (grant writing), sara (grant writing), Liz 4 Outcomes - outreach with existing data, legal/policy leverage, papers, exhibitions - Shannon, Sara, Adam 5 Evaluation, interviews- Shannon, Sara, Mathew 6 Public Archive/Online systems? web infrastructure - Stu, Jeff (liz in part) 7 GM Forum, printing - Mathew, Stu, jeff, shannon 8 PR - press releases, social media outreach, website content - videos- Liz, Jeff, Stu 9. Budget- Shannon, Sara....everyone Tool Working Groups:In Use 9 GRM: Kites and balloons- Mathew, Stu, Liz Not Proven Yet 11 Infrared camera (NDVI, NRG, false color) - Jeff, Stu, Liz 10 Spectrometry - Jeff, Sara 12 Roomba - Sara, Shannon (liz interested in air qual sensors for wide use)--Indoor air 13 water quality/endocrine disruption- Sara, Shannon, mathew, liz 14 thermal camera - Liz or Stu, Jeff, Sara 15 Research and Development future projects - stereo camera for 3D, deriving point clouds, diy lidar (liz interested) stu, sara 16 Program area review -- assess our work in the context of our program areas, every x months (6?) Review every 6 months? Other timelines depending on working group Other notes: Summary of existing work today:
Summary of tools:Kites and Balloons * Need full set for all wind conditions and a guide for choosing flying * potential for air quality monitoring by building line-runners. IR → postprocessing for ndvi Stereo Cameras → postprocessing for topography / 3D Thermal Camera Air Quality * VOCs * Carbon Monoxide Water Testing * Nitrogen, Phosphorus, Nutrients * Heavy Metals * Micropollutants, organic compounds, etc. * biologicals * fecal coliform/total coliforms * bod/cod * turbidity *Soil Testing * Nutrients * Heavy Metals * Micropollutants Administrating programs

A program is an issue area or topic, There are also cross cutting practices. 1 Petro-chemical industries and extraction industries * Tools: Spectrometer, NDVI, Endocrine disruption screen, UV, water quality, thermal camera * Sites: Gulf coast, Gowanus/NYC, (possible: appalacchia), Gas patch, tar sands, Butte * Collaborators? Skytruth, LABB, Gowanus canal conservancy (is greatly affected by this, but acting in area 3), 2 Environmental health (in many cases related to the above) * indoor/outdoor (is this “presence of harmful chemicals, frequently resulting from chemical or extraction industries, or from industrial production of goods like indoor furniture; and resulting health effects on living organisms?”) * Outdoor: NDVI, GRM, spectrometer, Endocrine disruption screen, water quality * Sites: Gulf Coast, NYC, gas patch * Indoor: spectrometer, roomba, Endocrine disruption screen, thermal camera * Sites: homes, schools, * Collaborators? Asthma files, 3 (this one needs work) Changes [sustainable] land usage? Ecological sustainability?
* (is this ecological productivity -- soil health, photosynthetic activity, ?)
sustainable agriculture - local, organic, small, family, community, broadly defined
