  3. Recent Accomplishments • New Members: - Mexico Regional Warning Center (2015) - Indonesia Regional Warning Center (2016) - STFC Rutherford Appleton Laboratory – Collaborative Expert center (2017) • Significant re-write of the Constitution • Product inventory with metadata created – This will help with selection of key information for rapid availability during extreme events. • Economic impact studies and user outreach activities conducted by numerous Members • Substantial progress made on observations and product development

  4. Actions from 2017 Annual Meeting (1 of 2) (To be discussed with full membership) Action: Submit the information about current RWC or AWC products, including the agreed metadata. Action: Indicate the products of the other ISES centers that would be valuable to have immediately and conveniently available.
