MORE presentations from the OFWIM - 1999 Conference (in Power Point (Microsoft) or Presentation (Corel) formats have been posted to the OFWIM Web Site. The next presentation received is now posted, and covers:
  • Development and Implementation of a Fisheries Data Management and Analysis Program for Impoundments (Robert S. Greenlee)

Development and Implementation of a Fisheries Data Management and Analysis Program for Impoundments (Robert S. Greenlee)

Virginia is attempting to adopt standardized techniques for the collection and analysis of data related to fisheries management. The Impoundments data analysis program was designed to provide a standardized format for fishers data management on a statewide basis, while allowing for the flexibility in data collection and analysis that district fisheries biologists require. The program was designed to be compatible with the various fish collection techniques employed by agency biologists across the commonwealth, and provide standardized analysis options and outputs. The Impoundments program has three primary functional components: data entry, data verification, and data analysis. It provides several methods of querying collections data based on temporal and geographic parameters, and sampling methodology. Analytical output options include length-weight regressions, relative weight, population indices, catch rates, size class distributions, percent total catch, and percent biomass. The Impoundments program was developed based on input from district biologists, fisheries program managers, and information managers. After information and analysis needs were determined, the program was developed using Microsoft Access and Visual Basic. One year of intensive beta testing by data entry operators and district biologists provided a feedback loop through which updates and modifications were made. This mechanism ensured that the program attained maximum utility and user acceptance.
