=== Towards a common (multidimensional) data format and implementation ===

== Discussion Leaders ==

<b>
* Andrew Jackson 
</b>

== Outcomes ==

* Discussion of the details of definition and implementation of the canSAS 2012 proposal / NXcanSAS

* The definitions of resolution needs work
** @Q_uncertainty – not good name, needs beefier definition that can include beam profiles and arrays etc.

* and intensity uncertainties need work!
** Multiple uncertainties – need definition of terms other than Idev (sigma) e.g. Iscalingerror

* Lots of good feedback to improve the definition and make it more usable
** This will be taken by the working group and the definition updated

* General conclusion was that we should work towards having the NXcanSAS definition adopted by NeXus

'''ACTIONS'''
* Uncertainty descriptions – Brian Pauw
* Cross checking of keyword/entry names against NeXus definitions and see where we need extra - DFWG
* Updates to definition based on feedback - DFWG
* Update documentation - DFWG
* Reference datasets - DFWG
* Reference/example implementations of readers & writers – DFWG & all (at least those who write software!)
* Work with NIAC to get NXcanSAS ratified as core application definition in NeXus - DFWG
