The overall scope of the work that management thinks should be done for a quarter (i.e., a PI) is given in the Candidate Feature list. The Planning Agenda describes how the 200+ people in the ESDIS project will coordinate the planning process for that work.
Information sources:
- Overall information with schedule: https://wiki.earthdata.nasa.gov/display/EPS/ESDIS+Program+SAFe
- Planning Agenda: https://wiki.earthdata.nasa.gov/display/EPS/PI+Planning+for+23.4+Agenda
- Candidate features: https://wiki.earthdata.nasa.gov/display/EPS/PI+23.4+Candidate+Features#tab-Transformation
But... The Candidate Feature list is not the only place where features are found. Other places include:
- Features that were not completed in the previous quarter (Carryover);
- Features that are internal to the group (Team); and
- Features that are important to other groups in the larger collection of groups (aka, 'train', Train-level)
Regardless of source, all features are planned similarly.
How to plan a feature
Based on the introduction, there are four kinds of features: Candidate, Carryover, Team and Train. All these are planned the same way except for the start of the process. The Candidate features have a more formal origin than the remaining three feature types.
