All Carbon Action Items currently under lead of WGCV are under assessment in order to

• align the WGCV work plan adequately
• coordinate with ither CEOS entities
• identify and coordinate with external bodies if needed
• identify dedicated alignment to a specific sub-group if possible
• identify cross-cutting or fundamental items related over the whole WGCV to align with existing WGCV taks (for example: validation metrics) or to implement a cross-cutting task within WGCV and others involved bodies if needed.

Assessment is nearly complete but the consolidation/merging of different input into one work plan is ongoing.

Results: Several action items are fully/partially aligned to ongoing work on sub-group level and to cross-cutting tasks or action items in the WGCV.

Hint: some of action items don't directly translate; some can be combined. An adequate alignment matrix will be provided with the consolidation of the assessment.

The action item is consistent with AI-22, AI-26, and AI-29 if translated to CEOS. The recommendation shall be transferred so that CEOS agencies make use of common protocols, definitions of compatible products, etc.. There is a compatibility related to AI-22, AI-26 and AI-29 with guidelines and definitions. Those shall be also allocated at CEOS entities as WGCV for level 1 but also for level 2 at WGCV and VCs in order to ensure overall compatibility with other/additional products and to avoid a duplication of definitions and so on.? This is consistent with other actions.
