Enhancing Natural Heritage Management: A National Database System Overview

This presentation outlines the architecture and database of the National Heritage Management System (NHMS), focusing on the current state and condition of natural heritage in the country. It covers key trends, priority management actions, and the expected impact of these initiatives. The NHMS aims to create a national picture of natural heritage by collating data, developing classification systems, and establishing a comprehensive database. Features include spatial enablement and integration with external data sources to improve access and analysis, ultimately supporting biodiversity management and conservation efforts.

Presentation Transcript

  1. NHMS Architecture and Database Natural Heritage Management System Presentation to Dataversity group Sep 2008

  2. A national system • What is the state and condition of natural heritage? • What are the trends in that condition? • What are the priority management actions we should take and where should we take them? • What difference does our management make (at an outcome level)?

  3. Current Work Programme Collate data and develop classification systems to create a national picture of natural heritage Inventory Clarify and define natural heritage goals Prioritise Develop a transparent, objective process for ranking sites and species for conservation work Set Goals NHMS Report Plan Map operational activities (planned and actual) Measure Do the work Database Application Develop a database and software tools capable of storing and processing natural heritage data the way we need it to, and linking up with external data Develop a national monitoring system for biodiversity and introduce standard measurement processes

  4. NHMS Database (EcoTracker) • NZ repository for natural heritage data, including monitoring data • Comprehensive database and software tools • Spatially enabled • Better access to natural heritage data • Will improve DOC’s ability to: • Analyse the data • Use it in managing biodiversity work • Report on the data and share it with others

  5. Database – Natural heritage information • Environmental representation • Place • Observations • Taxonomy • Tagged individuals • Other data

  6. Database Features • Prioritisation: • Targets • Work programmes • Enquiry and reporting • Data migration • Integration: • Dataloggers • External data sources • Web-based, for user access

  7. NHMS IT Project Scope • Evaluate and purchase a database system and software • Implement this, including migrate data into it • Phased implementation – re functionality and users

  8. NHMS Architecture and Database Natural Heritage Management System THE END
