  1. Marsh Bird Survey Data Management Marsh Bird Monitoring Technical Workshop March 6-8, 2006

  2. USFWS Refuges Database Development Project • SSP project with Patuxent to develop biological databases for Refuges data management system • Point Count Database: Modified to meet Refuges requirements and maintain other users • Develop data management system for Marsh Bird surveys conducted on Refuges

  3. USFWS Refuges Database Development Project • Marsh Bird Survey Data Management System Development: • User Acceptance Team (UAT) established in autumn 2005 • Started developing system requirements in January 2006 • Data stored in modified Point Count Database • New web interfaces developed specifically for Marsh Bird Surveys • Anticipated functional system: Autumn 2006

  4. Conceptual Data Management System • Centralized data management system with dispersed responsibilities for data management • Individual “programs” responsible for assigning management functions and ensuring data quality • “One-time” importation of existing data sets

  5. Conceptual Data Management System, contd. • Web-based data entry process • Embedded QA/QC functions to reduce entry errors • Individual “programs” responsible for own data entry • All data entered electronically • Marsh bird survey data stored in data tables within Point Count database

  6. Conceptual Data Management System, contd. • Editing functions accomplished via Internet • Individual “programs” responsible for editing own data sets • Access to data restricted until editing process is completed • After editing is completed, changes to these data are tracked by the database

  7. Conceptual Data Management System, contd. • Proofed data are accessible via Internet • Access to proprietary data can be restricted by “programs” • Queries and data summaries will be customized to meet specifics of marsh bird survey data • Small datasets provided immediately; large datasets available via FTP

  8. Window of Opportunity • Build upon Refuges Marsh Bird Data Management System to produce a system that supports an operational survey program • PWRC is willing to commit “available resources” (=programmer’s time) to expand and maintain Refuges system to meet reasonable needs of operational continental program • Timing should to follow closely upon/with development of Refuges system

  9. Data Management Issues • Should this group be talking about data management at this time? • Is the Refuges data management model reasonable for a continental program? • Can additional system requirements be identified at this time? • Should system be centralized or distributed? • Should U.S. and Canada maintain separate systems? • How to interface with national/regional programs? • Metadata considerations with respect to individual programs • Are there issues with proprietary use that may restrict access to these data?
