* It was mentioned that SAS community attempts to initiate cross-facility standards for sample environment should check with the ISSE as to what else might be being done on that front.  
* It was mentioned that SAS community attempts to initiate cross-facility standards for sample environment should check with the International Society for Sample Environment (ISSE) as to what else is be being done.  


One item flagged that relates back to data formats and the fact that new SE often generates new parameters that one would want to feed into the final data file collected.  
* It was noted that data formats need to be flexible and extensible to allow for the fact that new techniques and new ample environment equipment often generates new parameters, data and metadata that need to be recorded in data files and that some must feed into the final data reduced data files.

Notes from Breakouts

Summary

  • Co-operation between facilities would be helpful in terms of getting better support from suppliers for widely used ancillary and sample environment equipment.

- This minimizes duplication of efforts, - Makes it easier to integrate new unique pieces of sample environment.

  • It was mentioned that SAS community attempts to initiate cross-facility standards for sample environment should check with the International Society for Sample Environment (ISSE) as to what else is be being done.
  • It was noted that data formats need to be flexible and extensible to allow for the fact that new techniques and new ample environment equipment often generates new parameters, data and metadata that need to be recorded in data files and that some must feed into the final data reduced data files.

Making more information readily accessible such as current technique development, acronyms,beam logs and manuals etc.

The particular need for reference materials or others ways of validating results from emerging techniques was brought up. Also the fact that means of reducing and analyzing the data that comes out of such new measurements can be a real bottleneck.

Finally the need for extensive physical access to facilities was noted.
