1.2. SOP development process¶

  1. Initial SOP structure was drafted by Donglai Gong and Soeren Thomsen during OceanGliders Best Practice Workshop between May 11 and 25 2021

  2. Isabelle Giddy and Soeren Thomsen restructured the draft version in early July 2021 and invited more experts to join.

  3. Virtual expert meeting on July 22 organized by Isabelle Giddy and Soeren Thomsen to kick start the SOP writing. Agenda
    Meeting participants: Soeren Thomsen, Isabelle Giddy, Pierre Testor, Nikolaos Zarokanellos, Daniel Wang, Louis Clement, Clark Richards, Donglai Gong, Travis Miles

  4. New authors joined: Anthony Bosse, Evi Bourma, Mathieu Dever, Gerd Krahmann, Joe Wang in September / October 2021.

  5. SOP moved to this repository by: Isabelle Giddy and Soeren Thomsen in November 2021. Evi Bourma, Louis Clement and Julius Busecke supported the preparation of the community review.

  6. New authors joined during the community review: John Allen, Robert E. Todd and Callum Rollo.

  7. Virtual meeting to collect Real Time QC T&S issues by users on June 21 2022 organized by Victor Turpin, Isabelle Giddy, Corentin Guyot. Chaired by Soeren Thomsen. Agenda

1.3. Contributions¶

Isabelle Giddy Restructured and revised the initial draft document after Soeren Thomsen and Donglai Gong. Edited the whole document and implemented comments and suggestions.
