Inventory Activities
Goal: Inventory existing monitoring to allow the Design Workgroup to:Define what should be adopted as a part of the
NetworkDefine what needs to be added to build the Network
More coverage More uniform procedures Better data access

Inventory Activities
Goal: Inventory existing monitoring to allow the Steering Committee to:Lay the groundwork for addressing other
issues: A process of “affiliation” with the Network Future reports of the Network’s status

The Ideal Inventory Covers monitoring that spans freshwater,
coastal and marine resources Structured to cover four dimensions:
Ownership Location Content (and timing) Procedures (and approach)
Prioritized Data Collections: Collects data that are useful, but not burdensome to
produce Illustrates thoroughness, but will never be complete

Ways to Find Monitoring Programs
By OwnershipBy Location
By Procedures
By Content

Find ThemBy Ownership
Inventories emphasizing program ownership find the large, well established agency efforts

Find Them By Content
Programs that stress specific content, specific media, or specific purposes. These are often associated with research.
Ownership

Inventories based on common procedures focus on users of shared data systems, users of specialized instruments, or practitioners of specific approaches
By Their Use of Common Procedures

By Location
Inventories by location stress diverse regional programs

By Location

Locational inventories can also focus on different zones, or levels

The Inventory Roadmap

The Inventory Roadmap Workgroup Priorities – A Tiered Approach
Focuses first using Existing inventories Ownership - Major programs Locations - Case Studies
Then focus on location of sites Then focus on
Constituents monitored Procedures
Metadata Data access

Where to stop?
We can’t cover everything We don’t want to collect data we don’t use
![Page 17: National Water Quality Monitoring Network Design](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56815cbe550346895dcac156/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

The Roadmap to the Future
We believe that a Registry of Monitoring Programs will be a feature of the new Network Perhaps as a part of the process of “affiliation” with
the Network Our Inventories can help format the Registry Network systems can help assemble data them Continuing inventories will support future reports of
the Network’s status
