  1. PEARL: Data Acquisition and Information Summaries for Environmental Education and Outreach in Maine. David Kramar and Peter Vaux

  2. A Road Map to PEARL • Brief History and Overview • Recent Developments • On-the-fly plotting • Information summaries • “Windows” into PEARL • Science for the Public • Integration into education • Questions/Comments

  3. The Core of the System • Independent Oracle Tables • Minimal data requirements • Remote data upload via the Data Annex System • Consistent geo-referencing

  4. Background and History • Originally developed in 1997 • “Lake” Centric • Water Quality Data • Major Renovation in 2003-2004 • No longer Lakes focused

  5. Recent Developments • Data by Lake • By Stream • By Town • By Watershed (HUC) • Text based retrieval • Map based retrieval • Subject based retrieval

  6. Lake Based Data Retrieval • Lakes • Temperature and Dissolved Oxygen • Transparency and Secchi • “on the fly” fish species lists • “on the fly” mussel inventories

  7. Temperature and Dissolved Oxygen
