Project Description

This project will enable coastal restoration monitoring data interoperability between the Coastal Protection and Restoration Authority's Coastal Information Management System (CIMS) and NOAA’s two applications, the Data Integration Visualization Exploration and Reporting (DIVER) Explorer and the Environmental Response Management Application (ERMA) platform. As such, this data interoperability project will provide greater accessibility and discoverability for the scientific community, which in turn, will help inform the overall coastal restoration project planning and implementation efforts and decisions. This Monitoring and Adaptive Management (MAM) activity aligns with the Louisiana Trustee Implementation Group (LA TIG) MAM Strategy (DWH LA TIG 2021) by addressing data management and data interoperability efforts to facilitate transfer and synergies of data from CIMS to DIVER, while minimizing duplication of data access and utilization for restoration management, planning, and decision making (AM Framework Report 2.0). This activity will address the LA TIG Programmatic MAM needs number 4 (Table 10, pg 26; LA TIG MAM Strategy 2021) and MAM activities to develop and increase access to and availability of collected data, monitoring, project documents, and lessons learned from LA TIG restoration projects and MAM activities. Increasing data discoverability and data sharing mechanisms will in turn support development of Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, Timely (SMART) objectives associated with the Data Management MAM Fundamental Objectives listed below: *Enable machine to machine NRDA data interoperability (i.e., CIMS app...click on "More Info" link below
