This document outlines the data management support provided to the Mojave Inventory and Monitoring (I&M) Network from June 2002 to March 2008. Key activities included project management, spatial data acquisition, analysis, and dissemination, as well as GIS support for springs field inventories and vital signs monitoring reports. The project also involved database development, programming, and metadata training. Reports and plans detailing the findings and methodologies are included, ensuring the Mojave Network's data management framework is effective and compliant with required standards.
