NBWA Stewardship Plan Projects Database
Update on Progress To Date, Next Phase of Work
Deanne DiPietro, Sonoma Ecology Center
Data Standardization
Participated in CalEDLN, development of standardized project description
Project data from Stewardship Plan converted into CalEDLN standard
Also standardized: SF Bay Joint Venture Project Database (291) Natural Resource Project Inventory (5,605) North Coast IRWMP Projects (121) SEC, Marin Audubon, Urban Creeks Cncl (60)
Data Standardization
Putting info into the same fields as everyone else (left a lot of blanks)
Syncing up keywords with those of other catalogs so they can be searched together
Including geographic data in the records so they can be searched by area
NBWA Project Objectives
•Cultural education•Dry weather nuisance flows•Erosion, sedimention, and refuse reduction•Flood hazard assessment•Flood plain protection•Groundwater best management practices•Habitat restoration•Impaired water bodies•Interpretive features•Monitoring•Potable water supply•Public education•Receiving waters protection•Recreational facilities•Recreational use•Recycled water•Riparian protection•Stream geomorphic restoration•Stream restoration
KRIS Resource Catalog
East Marin/Northbay KRIS: a large collection of charts, maps, tabular data, photos, and documents
Metadata standardized and will soon be posted, then will be searchable with all the other data
Data Networking
NBWA Project Database now in the CERES Catalog with NRPI and others
May all be harvested and analyzed together
Networked catalogs are refreshed by data stewards
The Northbay Commons is born
Cure for the stand-alone database
Now what would you like your data to do? Maps Graphs, stats Downloads News-feeds

Combining all project and resource data to review by organization
Outreach & Data Holdings Review
Next Phase: October-February
Objectives: Update and augment the data Promote ownership and future updates
Challenges: Need to track down the right people, hope they can
spend the time Capture data that will support analysis desired by
NBWA
Benefits to Everyone
Data is put to work for a real purpose, so it gets refined for that purpose
Data becomes a “living” resource instead of another stale duplicate
Northbay Commons and CERES are tested, refined, and pushed forward
Open public access, will lead to further development of analysis tools
