ok, here the final version with the ellipses. I didn't put the rocks from jmars (sorry!) for two reasons: the risolution was very very bad, and I couln't figure out the scale. Like how many kilometers. If anybody will ever answer to this message I will do it tonight or tomorrow morning. Another remark: It's sort of weird though that Matt's ellipses in the final slides are not tilted at all..

Objectives include the refinement (and higher resolution observations) over Arabia and Elysium "go" area as displayed in 2016_edl_scenario.ppt. Landing ellipses to be added
19-01-11 pm
The state-of-the-art (19th) is summarized here
USEFUL MATERIAL: go-no-go map of Mars 2016 EDM, central longitude 0 mars_2016_clon0.png
ExoMars_2016_EDL_Demo_Sites_MODIFIED.ppt
OBJECTIVE: get something sone today, e.g. 2 ellipses before the end of Jan 19th "PPTHOMEWORK" feel free (but very welcome 
)to get some inputs/proposals for one or more ellipses before 20th morning.
TASKS
TASK 1 (1 individual to edit, ALL to discuss): Global map over ppt
TASK 2 (ALL): Searching and placing ellipses
TASK 3: (3 individuals) Google Earth / jMars editor for ellipses(who outputs for discussion and/or inclusion in task1)
ALL to provide feedback, discuss
note: ellipses to be made on ppt. Scale bar and grid lines/labels needed to be delivered by task 3 - e.g. looking at Matt's locations:
Arabia1 29.89 N, 349.53 E
Elysium 28.4 N, 114 E

e.g. --> 2do:needed (and missing) datasets (and toos) --> in absence of gis use maps from M. Golombek's ppt and/or hardcopy/elsewhere...

please add anything relevant...
--> need for something a little bit more quantitative/semiquantitative even for such a small exercise. As an example: when discussing LSEC and possible alnding sites. having an idea of the DN of TI would help, or at least a legend, which is not currently implemented on planetarygis/forum/maps...
NOTES: everyone is welcome to edit the wiki and add content. It would be nice if one or more persons are taking care particularly of:
a) recording and summarizing the discussion on the wiki
b) later on, supporting the draft of the final presentation to be conveyed by the coordinators (number of slides TBD) draft presentation
2016 Scenario Team Composition
Nominal:
Vago, Muller, Masarotto, Krueger, Cockell, Golombek, Gomez, Lorenzoni, Rossi
Effective:
Leila Lorenzoni, Felipe Gomez Gomez, Hans Krüger, Valentina Masarotto, Alessandra Marcer, Angelo Rossi, Polina Raizi,Takehiko Satoh
Define goals and approach per team
Goals:
- come up with some proposed landing sites (at least three) which are compatible with engineering constraints and in the desired latitude range (25-30 N);
- give an initial safety ranking and look for “parking lot” (safest place).
Approaches:
- Clarify and understand LSEC (landing site engineering costraints);
- identify available data for LSEC;
- assess available data and their use.
Criteria for landig site (mentioning engineering & scientific)
what kind of data/information/mapping is needed?
what kinkd of tools are needed?
Propose landing sites to study more in detail
How to organize the science community? Is a kind of CDP needed? How? which tools/interfaces?
