Folts-Zettner T. 2019. Data quality standards for multi-network exotic plant monitoring protocol: A collaboration among the Southern Plains, Sonoran Desert, and Chihuahuan Desert networks. Natural Resource Report. NPS/SOPN/NRR—2018/1908. National Park Service. Fort Collins, Colorado
The purpose of this Data Quality Standards (DQS) report is to document the standards, policies, and procedures used by the Southern Plains Network (SOPN), Chihuahuan Desert Network (CHDN) and Sonoran Desert Network (SODN) for activities related to the collection, processing, storage, analysis, and publication of monitoring data as described in Multi-network Exotic Plant Monitoring Protocol: A Collaboration among the Southern Plains, Sonoran Desert, and Chihuahuan Desert Networks (Folts-Zettner et al. 2016). 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, Chihuahuan Desert and Sonoran Desert networks and supplement the quality management plan for the networks (Sosinski 2008, Richie 2009 and Angell 2005). The DQS also serves as a guide for all Southern Plains, Chihuahuan Desert Network and Sonoran Desert 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.
