Background: WoSCR Expo PavilionPMESII Tools Exhibition

We plan to set up a display of information about COMPOEX and related PMESII tools and methods in the new "Whole of Society Crises Response" (WoSCR) community 3D collaboration space in Second Life.  We are planning an "Expo pavilion" that will be alongside the area where the first workshops will be run for the community in the Virtual Collaboration Environment which comprises a collaborative networking web site and a 3D region in Second Life (and later other virtual worlds).  See http://openvce.net for background.

Part of the aim of the expo element of this work was to begin to engage with the tool providers, find ways to catalogue and link to their resources in novel ways, and link them up to the subject matter and crisis response communities. The concept is provide an expo "booth" or display for each project (8mx8mx8m area), work element or tool that we could identify from the IBC, COMPOEX and related programs.

To get this started, AIAI at the University of Edinburgh will assist by creating the initial in-world Expo Pavilion booth contents, if we can obtain the reagent information from the projects a number of projects to get this started.  We have 16 spaces of 8mx8mx8m available in the Expo Pavilion as currently configured. The information sought is described on the 2 slide Powerpoint template.

Ideally, we want to engage with the providers to attract their interest and involvement, and possibly involve them or their colleagues later in WoSCR community workshops or events.. perhaps through this Expo area and a tour of it by workshop attendees.
