<h3>Description: <br/><br/><p>The ESIP Semantic Technologies Committee will be hosting a one day GeoSemantics Symposium. The event will be held at Bethesda North Marriott (the same location as the ESIP meeting) with the intention to bring together the geoscience community interest in Semantic Web, and more broadly Semantic Technologies, with the topic being <b>TBC</b>. We’d like to fully leverage all of the semantic work happening in our respective communities, avoid duplication of effort, and work towards a broad community-endorsed path forward.
<h3>Description: <br/><br/><p>The ESIP Semantic Technologies Committee is hosting its annual Geosemantics Symposium on January 14th, 2019 in Washington DC as part of the ESIP Winter Meeting. This year's symposium is investigating how to consolidate and align Earth science semantic resources (e.g., ENVO, SWEET, etc.) to take advantage of resources such as schema.org, Google tooling, and other external tooling. The symposium will help launch the Semantic Technologies Committee's effort to develop, manage, and socialize community-based extensions to schema.org vocabularies for dataset landing pages and other science data-related web sites. We want this to be a community-driven process and we need your input! Please join us at the <a href="http://www.marriott.com/hotels/travel/wasbn-bethesda-north-marriott-hotel-and-conference-center/">Bethesda North Marriott in Bethesda MD</a> on January 14th. The symposium is free and open to the public. <a href="http://wiki.esipfed.org/index.php/Attendee_List_2019">Register here</a>, or email <a href="mailto:beth@lingualogica.net">beth@lingualogica.net</a>. <a href="https://esipfed.github.io/stc/symposium/2019/symposium.html">Check our webpage from time to time for updates</a>.
</p>

<p>We seek broad community input and encourage non-ESIP members and members of other professional societies to attend. The event itself is free; however, attendees will be responsible for providing their own travel and lodging. The exact room within the Marriott is still being worked out and will be provided in future announcements. Also, suggestions for topics to be covered are welcome.</p></h3>
