Meeting Overview

The LTER Information Managers 2004 meeting will take place on July 28-31, 2004, in Portland Oregon, immediately preceeding the 2004 Meeting of the Ecological Society of America. Information about air travel, hotel reservations, and Portland area attractions is available on the Logistics page. Final details about the agenda for the 2004 IM Meeting are now available on the Agenda page, and background documents will be posted by July 19, 2004.

All participants will be asked to register on this web site in advance so that adequate meeting space can be secured. Site representatives to the IM Committee will also be asked to contribute a short "Site Byte" report prior to the meeting, describing IM activities at their LTER site during the past year and also including a paragraph describing EML implementation progress or plans.

All participants are also strongly urged to familiarize themselves with the reference materials and planning documents provided on this web site prior to attending the meeting. The focus of the 2004 meeting will be product-oriented working groups, and this preparation will provide a common frame of reference for group discussions and help make our working group sessions productive.
