The Analytic Center Framework (ACF) is a concept to support scientific investigations with a harmonized collection of data from a wide range of sources and vantage points, tools and computational resources. Four recent NASA AIST competitive awards are focused on either ACFs or components which could feed into AQ ACF's. Previous projects have developed tools and improved the accessibility and usability of data for Air Quality analysis, and have tried to address issues related to inconsistent metadata, uncertainty quantification, interoperability among tools and computing resources and visualization to aid scientific investigation or applications. The format for this meeting will be a series of brief presentati.ons by invited speakers followed by a discussion. This generally follows the panel model How to Prepare for this Session: A link to a set of pre-read materials will be provided.
