The purpose of this Data Quality Standards (DQS) report is to document the standards, policies, and procedures used by the Southern Plains Network (SOPN) for activities related to the collection, processing, storage, analysis, and publication of monitoring data as described Grassland Monitoring Protocol for the Southern Plains I&M Network and Fire Group (Folts-Zettner et al. 2017a). The policies and procedures documented or referenced in this quality-assurance plan complement the quality-assurance plans for other monitoring activities conducted by the Southern Plains and supplements the quality management plan for the network (Sosinski 2008). The DQS also serves as a guide for all Southern Plains Network personnel who are involved in protocol/program activities and as a resource for identifying memoranda, publications, and other literature that describe associated techniques and requirements in more detail.
