1. Using SSIS to load data into ODM Sevilleta LTER Example David Tarboton Utah State University with Sevilleta Slides and data from Kristin Vanderbilt, Sevilleta LTER IM Study by: Joe Fargione, Nature Conservancy Scott Collins, UNM Will Pockman, UNM

2. The Sevilleta study: multiple-factor global change experiment in an arid area at the boundary between shortgrass prairie and desert grassland that is undergoing shrub encroachment multiple-factor global change experiment in an arid area at the boundary between shortgrass prairie and desert grassland that is undergoing shrub encroachment simulates predicted future environmental conditions of increased nighttime temperatures, nitrogen deposition, and El Niño frequency (which increases winter precipitation by 50% at our field site). simulates predicted future environmental conditions of increased nighttime temperatures, nitrogen deposition, and El Niño frequency (which increases winter precipitation by 50% at our field site).

11. 1. Start with Blank ODM Schema 2. Load small tables by hand ISOMetadata, Sources, Qualifiers, Methods (Done in advance) ISOMetadata, Sources, Qualifiers, Methods (Done in advance) OffsetTypes, Variables (by hand with SQL Management Studio) OffsetTypes, Variables (by hand with SQL Management Studio) 3. Load Sites table using simple SSIS script 4. Load Data Values table using more complex (but still simple) SSIS script 5. Create Series Catalog 6. Inspect using ODM Tools Outline

12. Sites SSIS Script

13. Import DataValues using SSIS
