## Summary
The Europa Spatial Data Infrastructure team will evaluate existing spatial data and data standards for Europa and assess spatial data storage, acquisition, discovery, and use needs of the Europa community. Spatial data infrastructure (SDI) is the enabling collection of spatial data users, data interoperability agreements, policies and standards, data access mechanisms, and the spatial data themselves (Rajabifard et al., 2002). The overarching goal of the Europa SDI is to allow nonspatial data experts to use spatial data to the greatest extent possible, with the lowest possible overhead (Laura et al., 2018). This team will address complexities by defining policies and standards that will be applicable to this SDI regarding data interoperability, data contribution, and the long-term maintenance of this SDI for the benefit of all user communities.
## Objectives
Publish and steward the policy infrastructure necessary to maintain this SDI including this charter, memorandums of understanding to support data release and sharing agreements, and a roadmap map of future development.
Engage with the user community, funding agencies, and NASA Advisory Groups to ensure the efforts of this body maximally align with targeted user community needs.
- Publish and steward the policy infrastructure necessary to maintain this SDI, including a charter, governance documentation, memorandums of understanding to support data release and sharing agreements, and a roadmap of future development.
- Engage with the user community, funding agencies, and NASA Advisory Groups to ensure the efforts of this body maximally align with targeted user community needs.
- Publish an initial set of standards that will define this SDI including standardized vertical and horizontal datums (i.e., the coordinate system), accepted map projections, interoperable data formats, and metadata formats.
- Maintain, in conjunction with the Europa community, a living inventory of foundational and framework data products including quantitative (e.g., positional accuracy, resolution, data producer) and qualitative (e.g., fitness-for-use) metadata. This includes setting a standard for metadata to be reported for all data products managed under the Europa SDI organization.
- Provide a mechanism to link users, such as data creators (who make the data products), custodians (who manage the data products lifecycle), and data integrators (who provide the data to end users) to create an interconnected user group.
- Support (through policies and standards) the development of data discovery and access portals making use of Europa SDI managed data and associated Application Programming Interfaces (APIs).
- Ensure the public release of all Europa SDI managed data products and APIs.
- Engage with tool developers to ensure support for data and standards included in the Europa SDI.

## Data Standards
Data and derived products within this SDI conform to a set of standards to maximize interoperability, including standardized vertical and horizontal datums (i.e, the coordinate system), accepted map projections, and metadata formats. Significant effort was made to use standards that are consistent with IAU recommendations, those in use by relevant mission teams, and that foster interoperability. See the Guidelines for Europa Data Providers for detailed information regarding the standards and formats the Europa SDI adheres to, with the goal of maximizing interoperability between datasets and reducing the need to reproject or reprocess data.
## Data Licensing
All derived data made available through the Europa SDI should use an open-data license from the Creative Commons family of copyright licenses. Derived data should be licensed using one of the following: (1) CC0, public domain; (2) CC BY, attribution required; or (3) CC BY-SA, attribution required with a share-alike clause. Data providers are encouraged to bring other licenses to the attention of the working group if a compelling use-case for expanding the applicable licenses exists.

title: Governance Model
weight: 6
---
The Europa SDI working group is governed through two complementary strategies: 1) regular working group meetings; and 2) asynchronous collaborations using email and a shared work drive.
## Meetings and Ratification of Minutes
The working group meets regularly (roughly monthly) using tools that enable participation by the community. We use a videoconferencing platform for our meetings.
Working group members are expected to regularly participate in working group activities. The chair sends a calendar invite to all working group members prior to the meeting. The chair also sets the meeting agenda and runs the meeting unless they have delegated that role to another member or subject matter expert. Meetings are generally not recorded.
Items are added to the meeting agenda that require discussion, decisions to be made, or are modifications of governance, contribution policy, membership, or release process. Updates on efforts toward meeting strategic plan goals are also discussed and reviewed in meetings. Any working group member can ask that something be added to the next meeting’s agenda by communicating to the chair.
Prior to each meeting the chair will share the agenda with members of the working group. Working group members can also add any items they like to the agenda at the beginning of each meeting. The chair and the working group members cannot veto or remove items.
The working group may invite persons or representatives from related projects, stakeholders, or user communities to participate in any meeting in a non-voting capacity.
The chair, or their delegate, is responsible for summarizing the discussion of each agenda item and sends the meeting notes to all working group members after the meeting.
## Decision Making Process
The working group follows a Consensus Seeking decision-making model.
When an agenda item under discussion has appeared to reach a consensus the chair, or any working group member, will state the decision that is perceived to have been reached and ask "Does anyone object?" as a final call for dissent from the consensus.
If an agenda item cannot reach a consensus, a working group member can call for either a closing vote or a vote to table the issue to the next meeting. The call for a vote must be seconded by a majority of the working group or else the discussion will continue. If a vote occurs, simple majority wins and the chair does not have tie breaking capacity (I.e., the chair’s vote does not hold more weight than any other member). In the event of a tie, discussion will continue until there is a majority vote or consensus.
Note that changes to the working group membership require consensus. If there are any objections to adding or removing individual members, an effort must be made to resolve those objections. If consensus cannot be reached, then the discussed change to membership is not implemented.
## Asynchronous Communication and Collaboration
In addition to monthly meetings, the Europa SDI working group maintains a public repository of working documents, meeting notes, and presentations. This folder is a mechanism for asynchronous collaboration between members and allows for collaboration on tasks pertaining to the management of this SDI (e.g., editing documents, developing standards, supporting data ingestion). All group members have access to this internal use folder. Email is also commonly used to communicate with the working group between meetings.

title: Introduction
weight: 1
---
The Europa Spatial Data Infrastructure (SDI) Working Group is a voluntary cooperation between planetary community members to evaluate existing spatial data and data standards for Europa and assess spatial data storage, acquisition, discovery, and use needs of the Europa community. The Europa SDI is endorsed by the NASA directed Mapping and Planetary Spatial Infrastructure Team (MAPSIT). The overarching goal of the Europa SDI is to allow nonspatial data experts to use spatial data to the greatest extent possible, with the lowest possible overhead (Laura et al., 2018). This working group addresses spatial data complexities by defining policies and standards regarding data interoperability, data contribution, and the long-term maintenance for the benefit of all user communities. See the Europa SDI Strategy Document for additional information.
The purpose of this governance document is to describe the organization of the Europa SDI Working Group and the agreed upon policies for SDI data standards, licensing of data products, establishing cooperative agreements between this SDI and data providers, membership in this working group, decision making procedures, and our code of conduct.

title: Recurring Agenda Topics
weight: 5
---
Subject matter expertise within the Europa SDI working group is organized primarily around the following topics, which are closely related to the Europa SDI objectives (see Appendix 1 below and the Europa SDI Strategy Document). However, additional topics may be added to the agenda at any time. Smaller focus groups may meet separately or asynchronously, as needed, and the results of such discussions are presented to the entire working group at regular meetings.
### Foundational And Framework Data
This topic focuses on the definition of standards within the Europa SDI for interoperability and remote data access as well as the definition of metadata standards to support discoverability, the prioritization of higher-order data product creation, and the definition of a semantic vocabulary or ontology to support more complex data discovery activities. This working group coordinates and manages a listing of available data within the Europa SDI and solicits for data to be added to the SDI, the publishing of an initial set of standards including standardized vertical and horizontal datums (i.e., the coordinate system), accepted map projections, standardized data and metadata formats to support interoperability, and standards to ensure interoperability of Europa SDI search APIs. Three foundational data themes include geodetic coordinate systems, elevation, and orthoimagery. Framework data are defined as spatially enabled data products that serve a smaller user group and in conjunction with foundational data support additional science and engineering goals (Laura et al., 2017).
### Applications and Tools
A primary objective of this working group is to engage tool developers to ensure support for data and standards included in the Europa SDI and to build partnerships with such groups. This working group provides a venue for the discussion and possible promotion of new capabilities that leverage the SDI, and supports the identification and prioritization of technical capability that could be developed to support user interaction with the SDI.
### Portals
Coordination between data providers and data custodians to ensure availability of data products is critical to realizing the full potential of the Europa SDI. This working group is concerned with SDI data storage in the cloud, data access, and ensuring FAIR principles are upheld. This working group coordinates the maintenance of, in conjunction with the Europa community, a living inventory of foundational and framework data products including quantitative (e.g., positional accuracy, resolution, data producer) and qualitative (e.g., fitness-for-use) metadata. It also enables the development of data discovery and access portals making use of Europa SDI managed data and associated APIs.
### Website and Communication
This working group strives to engage our users and to respond to the needs of the Europa community. To that end, this working group will maintain the Europa SDI public websites, data catalog, and mechanisms for communication with user groups, stakeholders, and the general public. This working group also coordinates engagement with the user community, funding agencies, and NASA Advisory Groups to ensure the efforts of this body maximally align with targeted user community needs. Community feedback is synthesized, and responsive action items are also developed.

title: Working Group Organization
weight: 4
---
The Europa SDI Working Group is the decision-making body of the SDI. The working group members collaboratively formulate the mission, vision, governance model, data and metadata standards, and strategic direction for the development and maintenance of the Europa SDI. This working group approves work efforts required to meet the strategic goals of this group and provide guidance to support the implementation of those decisions. The working group also establishes and maintains relationships with NASA program managers, data providers, and community user groups and stakeholders, such as Europa science and engineering communities, mission teams (e.g., Europa Clipper and JUICE), software application and tool developers, media relation activities, public engagement and education groups, and members of the general public.
## Membership
This working group consists of voluntary working group members and topical sub-groups. There is one chair, one co-chair, and an unlimited number of members.
Current Membership Includes:
- Jason (Jay) Laura, Chair, USGS Astrogeology Science Center, jlaura@usgs.gov
- Ross Beyer, SETI Institute and NASA Ames Research Center, rbeyer@seti.org
- Michael (Mike) Bland, USGS Astrogeology Science Center, mbland@usgs.gov
- Robin Fergason, USGS Astrogeology Science Center, rfergason@usgs.gov
- Trent Hare, USGS Astrogeology Science Center, thare@usgs.gov
- Cynthia Phillips, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, cynthia.b.phillips@jpl.nasa.gov
- Paul Schenk, Lunar and Planetary Institute, schenk@lpi.usra.edu
Working group memberships are not time limited. There is no maximum size of the working group. The size is expected to vary in order to ensure adequate coverage of important areas of expertise, balanced with the ability to make decisions efficiently. The working group must have at least five members. Chairs and co-chair terms are for one year each from October 1 to September 30. During the August meeting, individuals self-nominate to serve as co-chair and the working group determines the new co-chair by majority vote. After the one-year term, the co-chair then serves as the working group chair. A change of the chair and/or co-chair can be made mid-year by the same process described above and as deemed necessary by consensus of the working group members. Mid-year changes are expected to be rare.
There is no specific set of requirements or qualifications for working group membership. The working group may add additional members by consensus. If there are any objections to adding any individual member, an attempt should be made to resolve those objections following the Consensus Seeking Process (see section 5.2). A working group member may be removed from the group by voluntary resignation, or by consensus of all other members.
Changes to working group membership should be posted in the agenda and may be suggested as any other agenda item. If an addition or removal is proposed during a meeting, and the full working group is not in attendance to participate, then the addition or removal is added to the agenda for the subsequent meeting. This policy is to ensure that all members are given the opportunity to participate in all membership decisions.
In the case where an individual working group member -- within any twelve-month period -- attends fewer than 25% of the regularly scheduled meetings, does not participate in working group discussions, and does not participate in working group votes, the member shall be automatically removed from the working group. The member may be invited to continue attending working group meetings as an observer.
To express interest in serving on the Europa SDI working group, please email the current chair.
