- 1 - Welcome
Welcome remarks from the local host - 2 - Opening of OCG-14
Welcome participants, review the progress of intersessional work and highlight the key achievements; and looking forward to 2023 activities.
OCG-14 OCG-14 introduction - 3 - GOOS Updates
Updates from the GOOS office on the requirements, including an overview of the WMO rolling review of requirements (RRR) process, the establishment of Decade Coordination Office (DCO), Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission (IOC) survey to capture examples of issues related to undertaking observations in states exclusive economic zones (EEZs). Recent developments and potential connections and impacts on OCG requirements and connections to networks will be shared.
OCG-14 OCG-14 GOOS update - 4 - European observation networks assessment in the EuroSea Project
What was learned about maturing European observation networks within the EuroSea project and lessons learned looking at data, governance and best practices and the global (OCG) dimension
OCG-14 OCG-14 EuroSea_WP3 - 5 - Network Reports
Update from across the networks providing highlights from previous year, challenges, and looking forward the goals, opportunities, report out against the network attributes. Additional asks to report on include networks next plans for multi disciplinary expansion, highlight UN Decade activities, self-evaluation on - real-time data, delayed data access, best practices, and identifying networks main users and products. - 6 - OCG Network readiness - from emerging to mature OCG network
This will be an interactive brainstorming session to introduce the 3-tired OCG metrics developed to track progress of OCG networks. The proposed metrics are based on the OCG Attributes , the FOO document for maturity of system/networks/elements (page 10 and 11), and the implementation status table of the Report Card. It will serve as a reference to demonstrating the key factors and steps that are needed for an emerging OCG network to move towards a mature, fully-operating network.
OCG-14 Network readiness- draft OCG Network Readiness- draft
OCG-14 OCG-14 Network Metrics - 7 - Potential New Emerging Networks
To explore new expanding networks and create connections to OCG and OCG networks. Determining the potential new emerging networks readiness in terms of OCG Network Requirements and finalizing the decision on becoming an official emerging network. New networks are encouraged to join more of the OCG meetings to see what work is being done, especially the report outs from the mature and emerging networks, this would be helpful for understanding the value of engagement - 8 - Public / Private partnerships
To discuss the intersection and integration of global and coastal ocean observing initiatives and how they can support each other. The session will address the following topics: overview of global and coastal ocean observing initiatives and their goals, best practices and success stories of networks that have integrated global and coastal ocean observing, gaps identified, and discussion on potential next steps for OCG networks to do
OCG-14 OCG-14 Dialogues with Industry - 9 - Data Strategy
To present the OCG Data Implementation Strategy and discuss how to move forward with the recommendations from the strategy. Note connections and developments at IODE, Open Access GTS update, WIS 2 update. Plan for OCG in relation to data management moving forward.
OCG-14 Data strategy OCG Data Implementation Strategy v1.4
OCG-14 OCG-14 Data Strategy - 10 - Impact study
To understand the experiences and best practices of OCG networks in conducting impact studies. Find some ways to coordinate our asks to the modeling community. - 11 - Best Practices
Status update on recent developments and activities on OBPS, assessment of OBPS purpose for networks, and elevate importance of OBPS to the ocean observing community and beyond. To discuss potential funding constraints and how OCG can help. Reminder of process and success stories.
OCG-14 BP OCG-14 Best Practices - 12 - OceanOPS
Present the OceanOPS WorkPlan and discuss and guide the work in the frame of the OceanOPS 5 year strategy. Present the OceanOPS budget, share the plan and look at the Ocean Observing System Report Card 2023.
OCG-14 OceanOPS report OCG-14 OceanOPS financial report
OCG-14 OceanOPS report presentation OCG-14 OceanOPS report - 13 - Capacity building and workshop readouts
Opportunity for the capacity development to share recent activities and plans for 2024. Address working towards increasing the ability of states with less developed observing capabilities to both take and use the needed observations. Report outs and recommendations from pre-OCG-14 Workshops, time to also reflect if the format of pre- meeting workshops is effective.
OCG-14 Capacity Building OCG-14 Capacity Building - 14 - OceanObs’ 2024 Midway Conference
General update and plans for the OceanObs’24 Midway conference.
OCG-14 OceanObs ‘24 Midway Conference OCG-14 OceanObs ‘24 Midway Conference - 15 - GOOS Communications
Showcasing recent website updates for GOOS and OCG and GOOS Comms focus on stories from within the system. The value of communication.
OCG-14 GOOS Communication OCG-14 GOOS Communication - 16 - UN Decade programmes - engagement opportunities
General updates will be provided in advance of the meeting. This session will focus on coordination across networks on Ocean Decade and other activities and discuss what the Decade and other Actions need from global networks and how can and does OCG support these initiatives. Goal is to create an understanding of activities and connections and identify how OCG can help. - 17 - Summarized Actions
Finalize action items, decisions and recommendations, set priorities for actions and potential roundtable calls. Quick review with 1 week provided post OCG-14 to provide comment before finalization and decision on OCG Goals.
OCG-14 Session 17&18 Closing - 18 - Reflections and planning for OCG-15
