PEARL: Data Acquisition and Information Summaries for Environmental Education and Outreach in Maine. David Kramar and Peter Vaux

Brief History and Overview Recent Developments –On-the-fly plotting –Information summaries –“Windows” into PEARL Science for the Public Integration into education Questions/Comments A Road Map to PEARL

The Core of the System Independent Oracle Tables Minimal data requirements Remote data upload via the Data Annex System Consistent geo- referencing

Background and History Originally developed in 1997 “Lake” Centric Water Quality Data Major Renovation in No longer Lakes focused

Recent Developments Data by Lake By Stream By Town By Watershed (HUC) Text based retrieval Map based retrieval Subject based retrieval

Lake Based Data Retrieval Lakes –Temperature and Dissolved Oxygen –Transparency and Secchi –“on the fly” fish species lists –“on the fly” mussel inventories

Temperature and Dissolved Oxygen

Transparency and Secchi

Fish and Mussel Species

Town/County Based Data Retrieval

Watershed Based Data Retrieval

Subject Based Data Retrieval Subject Based Searches By Resource Type Summaries and References

Map Based Data Retrieval Lake Watershed Town

Focus Topics –Lakes Guide –Atlantic Salmon –Freshwater Biodiversity –Penobscot River

Lakes Guide Water Quality Fish and Anglers Aquatic Plants and Animals

Lakes Guide Water Quality

Lakes Guide Aquatic Plants and Animals

Atlantic Salmon

Access to Key Datasets Interactive Mapping of Key Data Key References Multiple Search Capabilities
