Information is the common currency among the activities and staff involved in the stewardship of natural resources for the National Park Service (NPS). The Data Management Plan is a guide for current and future project leaders and PACN staff to ensure the continuity and documentation of data management methods and procedures over time. The Data Management Plan, in turn, refers to other guidance documents and standard operating procedures which convey the specific standards and steps for achieving the network’s data management goals. The Data Management Plan is a companion document to the PACN Monitoring Plan. The Data Management Plan focuses on the processes used to: • Acquire, store, manage and archive data • Ensure data quality • Document and disseminate data • Ensure the long-term access to and utility of data.
