Traceability pitch for engaging food processors - Jessica Trites Rolle to work with Joe Tevis and others in the Traceability Provenance subgroup
Jessica Trites Rolle - learned that Johnny no longer with FMH. FMH did not implement any of the PICS image cleaning process.
However, once Nathan Stein and his new company, PIX4D, are members, we will have new options for a PICS case study. They've implemented in their product, so we can review exactly how they implemented and use that to tweak the PICS format and guidelines to ensure the guidelines are extremely clear. May have other companies that will implement also.
Show difference between ADAPT and ISO 11783 XML and how are meant to work together, not as alternatives to each other
"How ADAPT Versioning Works" - explain ADAPT versioning, breaking changes, and release timing so companies have a clear timeline so they know good times to implement (e.g., don't wait b/c think it will change 'soon')
FAQs on when to implement
Guide to business and developer information/tools (e.g., where to find, what is available, where to check for more info) - companies need to understand the package of materials and tools available and how to use in one guide document/page

Review template
Reviewed the template and decided:
Make header portion of the template editable
Retitle notes to remove the name of the specific project of tool - title is simply "Implementation Note" (e.g., AgGateway Implementation Note).
Replace the portion that says "Note # Volume #" and "Draft Number" with:
Note #: tag / tag (where 'tag' is a project, system, or tool, such as ADAPT or PAIL or SPADE or PICS or ContextItems, etc.)
v.# | Date (version number, date)
Need workflow for implementation note numbering
ADAPT - need to describe the new videos correctly for the newsletter - Susan Ruland (Unlicensed) needs input from Ben Craker (Unlicensed). Longer video is an in-depth tutorial on how to create a plugin (for developers), and the shorter are also focused on developers, but are more 'quick-start' guides.
Identify when to start planning and identifying materials and content/booths/etc for:
ASABE
InfoAg
Agritechnica
Others (see calendar)
Discuss: do we want a targeting/communications strategy for talking to different companies/exhibitors in person at InfoAg or other upcoming events?
Consider creating one or more of the below before mid-year for use at upcoming events (could aid discussions):
Flyers:
Traceability Initiative & CART (streamline processes in farmer businesses)
Precision Ag Council general
Flyer (or other explainer) to address why it’s OK to collaborate with competitors at AgGateway and what makes that acceptable (antitrust, etc.)
Business card-sized promo piece: ask a pain-point question on front, information and QR code on back
Discussion
Agritechnica - AgGateway does not currently have an exhibitor space. More to come once we have the planning document Jim Wilson prepared.

HOLDING TANK (items to consider in future)
ADAPT materials: make sure they show how ADAPT works between ISO and other standards, that it’s a tool to translate and share and standardize, not a new separate standard.
Identify audience: target flyers, messages to different groups; also have an overview all-audience flyer
Talk to new members: what pain points were they trying to solve that got them to join, and what collateral could we create to help others?
ASABE 2017: Sustainability, Provenance and ADAPT, Compound Identifiers. ASABE 2018: "Fit" paper (where does AgGateway "fit" into the standards space). Were not completed for conference papers, but could consider these journals for publication:
Computers & Electronics in Agriculture (ASABE journal) (no fee)
Applied Engineering in Agriculture (Elsevier journal) (fee)
There's also a Precision Ag journal, but the time frame from submission to publication is too long.
No discussion
KEEP - As update/create flyers or other materials, consider (from 8/28/18 meeting discussion):
Flyer format:
Use A4 format for our flyers, include country codes flyer and card phone numbers and country on addresses, and make sure we're being international in all our press. Also be careful about colloquialisms.
Use diagrams and pics, not words (words mean something different to different people) – borrow from presentations (ADAPT, CART, traceability, etc.) and make into a professional graphic
Flyer focus: OUTCOMES
