What is an interrogation site Data Steward?
A Data Steward is a Tag Data Coordinator with additional responsibilities to manage the data and meta-data reported to PTAGIS from an interrogation site. The Data Steward’s responsibilities include documenting if and when the site begins and ends operations for the calendar year, when the site is out of service for more than one day due to river conditions (low or high water) or a loss of detection capability, and any conditions that result in a significant change in the detectability of PIT-tagged fish. The Data Steward’s email and phone contact info are accessible to all PTAGIS constituents so they can contact the Steward if they have questions regarding PIT tag detection activity at the site.
