  1. NIMS – The Odyssey

  2. Year of the Rooster

  3. Strategic Planning MeetingEstes Park, CO July 2004

  4. Change in Terminology • NIMS Now Refers To The Entire FIA IM System. The Big Tent. • All Components Of The IM System Are Part Of NIMS • The Component Formerly Known As NIMS Is Just One Part Of The System. Now Called NIMS-CS

  5. Informational Feedback for System Improvement Data Flow Simplified Architecture Data Capture Data Factory Data Warehouse Data Mart Applications Users

  6. Definitions • Data Capture • By any method: electronic, manual, etc. • Data Factory • A system to store and process data for a particular business area • Data Warehouse • A generic term for a system for storing, retrieving and managing large amounts of any type of data • Data Mart • Database and/or systems designed primarily to address a specific function or department's needs. A subset of the data warehouse sometimes called a departmental data warehouse • Applications • Applications (programs) that provide users data and information

  7. Definitions in FIA Context • Data Capture • PDR program • Data Factory • Editing, processing and compilation system such as NIMS-CS and regional compilation systems • Data Warehouse • FIA doesn’t have a warehouse at this time. • Data Mart • FIADB • Application • MAPMAKER program

  8. An Organization Has: • Multiple Data Factories • Some Factories have Multiple Data Collection Systems • Data Warehouse for Corporate Data • Multiple Data Marts to Serve Different User Communities • Applications that serve data to a variety of user communities

  9. FIA NIMS TM Imagery TPO Survey Lab Data PDR P1 Factory TPO Factory P2/P3 Factory Data Warehouse (to be built) Public FIADB FSVeg Views Internal FIADB Apps MAP- Maker Apps FSVeg Public Users FIA Users

  13. NIMS – Data Marts

  14. NIMS P2/P3 Data Marts & Apps Data Warehouse • Public FIADB • Fuzzed, Swapped & Renumbered Plot Locations • Internal FIADB • Real plot locations & plot numbers • NRIS Views • Fuzzed, Swapped & Renumbered non-NFS plots • Fuzzed Locations NFS plots Apps Map- maker NRIS Loader FIA Users Public Users NRIS NRIS Users

  16. 2005 – Year of the (work) Horse • Ahead of Curve • IM Systems Ready for Prime Time (V3.0) September 1, 2005 • NIMS Products Can be Used as Primary Tools • Allow Units to Sunset Legacy Systems

  17. 2006 – Year of the WOLF

  18. 2005 – Year of the Borg (ISO)?
