Structure
Automatic sources of data
Consider also what information can be automatically extracted from the BDII/GOCDB and which ones need to be manually filled in.
Define the tools necessary to collect/publish the data
- Process: Invite NGIs to take the survey once a year with an option to update the information anytime. There should be a dedicated page with an FAQ for the survey/page.
- Tools
- For the first iteration, we can use a simpler tool (e.g., MS Word doc, Zoomerang)
- Later, we can require to set up a dedicated online tool
- E.g: extension to the EGI Metrics portal
- Discuss how to integrate data that can be collected automatically
- They should be presented to the users (for validation?)
Define how to present the data online
The discussion depends on the selected tool. About navigation of the information, evaluate the idea of using an interactive map (e.g. to present NGI, contact points, # of sites, # of VOs, and services provided by each VO).
