Wade volunteered to work on this in more detail for next time.
Existing ISO Signal Processing metadata not generic enough for our
needs.
All items in the SCP CoA can be computed from other items: perhpas not
include in the metdata, but include instructions for how to compute
it.
WOuld be nice to find the overlap with the other stds other working
groups are dealing with: hyperspectral, gnss-r, etc.
Be nice to have an on-line editable terminology document. Leland has sent
the current document to everyone via email.
Alexander volunteered to help with the mmwave definitions and
equations
Hari Priya volunteered to help with calibration and sensor comparison.
