Synthesize and provide science to support ecosystem management Objectives:
• Provide and Manage Information
CBP/EO Goals:• Commitment to share and increase access to
scientific results and information.
USGS Mission Areas:• Ecosystems, Water, Core Science Systems:
Analytics, Synthesis, and Libraries (Community for Data Integration)

Data Management Activities
Providing solutions for 3 things:• Data Management (DM) Workflows• Data Integration• Data Access
http://usgs.govhttp://egsc.usgs.gov
Lots of Science Workflow Models!
http://usgs.govhttp://egsc.usgs.gov
Data Management Workflows
Develop a Data Management Plan framework (DMPf) for all science themes.
Develop specific DMP’s for fish health and water quality contaminants field samples and scientific results.
Increase usage of the USGS Chesapeake Bay Studies data community on ScienceBase.

Data Stages in a DM Workflow
Terminal Endpoint
Options
Customize data flow model by choosing inputs, outputs, and storage locations appropriate for each project.
Disposition Schedules
* CSAS Web Release Workflow
+ science Data Catalog
Raw Data Stage Base Data Stage Project/ Derived Data Products

Data Stages in a DM Workflow
* CSAS Web Release Workflow
+ science Data Catalog
Raw Data Stage Base Data Stage Project/ Derived Data Products
As data move through these stages, how are we:• Creating meta information• Managing quality• Protecting that resource• Providing access to that resource
http://usgs.govhttp://egsc.usgs.gov
Data Integration
Develop a relational database on the EGSC’s Research and Development Computing Cluster (RDCC)• Integrate fish health and contaminants
information. • Increased exploration and analytical capability of
science data.• Protect and centralize data for long term storage.
http://usgs.govhttp://egsc.usgs.gov
Data Access
Expand and maintain existing data store on ScienceBase.
Develop custom web page interface using ScienceBase API.
Make data ready for “public release” available on Science Data Catalog.
http://usgs.govhttp://egsc.usgs.gov
ScienceBase 3 Purposes:• Archiving/ Sharing Data• DM Workflows (Data Stages)• Web Service Endpoints for
Datasets
http://usgs.govhttp://egsc.usgs.gov
Science Data Catalog
1 Purpose:• Published Data Search
http://usgs.govhttp://egsc.usgs.gov
Science Impacts Increase “Efficiency and Effectiveness” of science information.
Building data infrastructures upon which new science can grow.
Internal project teams, partners, and the public will have improved access to data and science results through data catalogs and web applications.
Chesapeake Bay project teams will be early adopters in the agencies push to implement Data Management best practices.
New analysis of fish health and contaminants data will be possible and will further discovery of scientific results.
