+# 2016 EarthCube netCDF-CF Workshop
+
+**Advancing netCDF-CF for the Geosciences**
+
+**24-26 May 2016, Boulder, Colorado**
+
+***[Original website hosted at Unidata](https://www.unidata.ucar.edu/events/2016CFWorkshop/ "Unidata's website")***
+
+This workshop will focus on discussing current and future efforts and directions for the Climate and Forecast (CF)
+metadata conventsions for netCDF (netCDF-CF). The meeting will be organized by the “Advancing netCDF-CF for Geoscience”
+project, which is funded by the National Science Foundation's EarthCube program.
+The project goals include several specific CF development efforts, including standards development and software prototyping.
+(The project team is just starting to spin-up community conversations around these specific goals for drafting CF extensions.)
+Another aspect of the funded project is fostering greater community engagement, including the existing CF community,
+geoscience domains that have not been very involved in CF, and other standards bodies (e.g. the Open Geospatial Consortium).
+These and other topics are on the current list of possible agenda items.
+
+Planned discussion topics include:
+* Hierarchical structures for data and metadata
+* CF and the netCDF Enhanced Data Model (e.g., CF 2.0)
+* CF Discrete Sampling Geometries (DSG) and the netCDF Enhanced Data Model
+* netCDF-CF and complex data value footprints (e.g., river segments/networks and drainage basins)
+* NetCDF-CF and satellite data
+* CFRadial: netCDF-CF and radar data
+* UGRID and related
+* Dataset Aggregation: various forms
+* Linked Data and semantic technologies
+* Coordination with OGC netCDF SWG
+* Harmonizing CF grid mapping with OGC CRS (coordinate reference systems)
+* Support for attribute namespaces and/or URI prefixes
+* CF Governance and process
+* Capturing information on uncertainty: netCDF-U (and UncertML?)
+
+The organizers are committed to ensuring that a wide range of community interests are represented.
+Although the initial deadline for participation in this workshop has passed, if you are interested in attending please contact.
+
+We are also investigating options for remote participation. If you would like to participate electronically, please contact us for information.
