Case Study Type: Science Center Inventory Related LDIRS Collection: Great Lakes Historical Water Temperature Profile Data - Bathythermograph Data Rescue (content no longer available) The Data at Risk (DaR) project set goals to inventory two different partnering science centers in order to 1) investigate the best methods to approach inventorying a USGS science center and 2) continue to expand the USGS legacy data inventory through the online Legacy Data Inventory Reporting System (LDIRS) tool. The investigation at the Great Lakes Science Center (GLSC) tested two different inventory methods and uncovered the benefits and drawbacks of each. The Great Lakes Science Center (GLSC), headquartered in Ann Arbor,...
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Data at Risk (DaR) team partnered with the Forest and Rangeland Ecosystem Science Center (FRESC) to preserve and release a subset of their golden eagle telemetry data. In the 1990’s, researchers from what is now FRESC worked with Boise State University (BSU) and collected telemetry and ground observation data that documented the local and migratory movements and behaviors of golden eagles. Over the course of this study 21 golden eagles in the conterminous western US were captured and marked with Argos platform terminal transmitters (PTTs) and tracked by satellite as they moved between breeding and wintering locations (individuals marked with Argos PTTs and tracked by satellite are...

The banding data provides a comprehensive list of where and when each of the 21 golden eagles were captured, tagged (all satellite-tagged, some also radio-tagged) and deployed. The banding data is organized into a spreadsheet (Banding_Records.csv) that provides basic information on each bird as well as any notes about recaptures or deaths. The Capture_Sheets.pdf is a supplemental document that provides more detailed biological and spatiotemporal information about 15 of the tagged individuals. Individual golden eagles can be identified across the three datasets with their unique and consistent PTT numbers.

The satellite data consist of 9,253 estimated locations of 21 golden eagles (Aquila chrysaetos) that were satellite-tagged in either east-central Idaho (Salmon, Idaho) or southwestern Idaho (Snake River National Conservation Area) and tracked between 1993 and 1997 via the Argos satellite system. The raw eagle tracking data provided by Argos were filtered one time using a version of the Douglas Argos-Filter Algorithm and converted into XLS spreadsheet form. This preservation project preserved the geospatial and satellite information from the XLS spreadsheet and released it in shapefile format (Satellite_Data.shp) and CSV format (Satellite_Data.csv). Each tagged bird in this dataset has a unique PTT number that is...

Case Study Type: Science Center Inventory The Data at Risk Project’s legacy data inventory investigation at the Upper Midwest Environmental Science Center (UMESC) gave insights into how the structure and organization of a science center can affect how legacy data is managed, inventoried, and preserved. Over the course of their 50-year history, the name and structure of UMESC has changed several times. Despite this change the Center’s mission has remained clear: provide the scientific information needed by resource managers, researchers, decision makers and the public; to protect, enhance, and restore the ecosystems in the Upper Mississippi River Basin, the Midwest, and the world. The ecosystem sciences in this...
Of the 21 golden eagles satellite-tagged in Salmon, Idaho and Snake River National Conservation Area, 10 were also radio-tagged with tail-mounted very high frequency (VHF) transmitters to allow for behavioral observations between 1993 and 1994. The observed data were originally processed as a DIF file. The Data at Risk preservation project transformed the original DIF file data into CSV format and created a shapefile from the geospatial points. The observed data shapefile (Observed_Data.shp) provides the 682 estimated locations of the golden eagles and all behavioral observations taken in the field. The information provided in the Observed dataset can be related to the other two datasets via each bird’s unique PTT...
