Call for Participation in Agriculture Community Group

The Agriculture Community Group has been launched:

The initial mission of the Agriculture Community Group is to gather and categorise existing user scenarios, which use Web APIs and services, in the agriculture industry from around the world, and to serve as a portal which helps both web developers and agricultural stakeholders create smarter devices, Web applications & services, and to provide bird’s eye view map of this domain which enables W3C and other SDOs to find overlaps and gaps of user scenarios and the Open Web Platform.

We’ll try to collect facts and knowledge from around the world through crowd-sourcing, while, at the same time, build a scaffold for it by quickly gathering key topics from Japanese agricultural stakeholders. Smart Platform Forum supports this early stages by connecting relevant stakeholders in Japan and organising face-to-face meetings if needed to proceed faster.

This group will not publish specifications.

In order to join the group, you will need a W3C account.

This is a community initiative. This group was originally proposed on 2014-10-14 by Kiyoshi Honda. The following people supported its creation: Kiyoshi Honda, mostafa keshavarz, Yosuke Funahashi, Shinichiro SEGAMI, Masaki Minami. W3C’s hosting of this group does not imply endorsement of the activities.

The group must now choose a chair. Read more about how to get started in a new group and good practice for running a group.

We invite you to share news of this new group in social media and other channels.

If you believe that there is an issue with this group that requires the attention of the W3C staff, please email us at site-comments@w3.org

Thank you,
W3C Community Development Team
