Fisheries Data Integration Project Objectives:
- Digitize priority IFW stream population and habitat data.
- Refine and extend an existing website (PEARL) to provide a
user-friendly web-based ‘forum’ for sharing and integrating both
lake and stream data in Maine, incorporating input from site
user groups as appropriate.
- Upload to the new PEARL: (a) Biological data from the Maine
Aquatic Biodiversity Project (MABP) database; and (b) newly
digitized IFW data, as determined by IFW.
- Provide and publicize the necessary documentation to permit
data providers to upload their own data to PEARL via the already
established Data Annex System.
- Develop front-end user interfaces to PEARL for two targeted
user-group (anglers, and educators/students). (See PEARL
strategic plan for more information on this concept).
- Compile and digitize “anecdotal” fisheries information from
IFW Region D biologists, as a pilot for developing a statewide
database of this type.
