The DoD AKN Program Team has been hard at work developing new tools for DoD professionals to integrate their avian data into the AKN. These include the 1) DoD AKN User Guide – which is a step-by-step User Guide to help you as you explore and create within your AKN Project and beyond. 2) Statement of Work Language for Avian Data in DoD Contracts and Agreements – which is language for DoD contracts and agreements to specify DoD ownership of data and the use of the AKN by contractors and/or cooperators. 3) DoD AKN Standard Sampling Methods – Species Checklist – which are standardized field sampling methods and AKN Protocols based on DoD's most common management and research needs. 4) Mission-Sensitive Species Profile and Recommended AKN Sampling Protocols – Pinyon Jay
The DoD AKN Team is continually working with DoD and non-DoD subject-matter-experts to review the best-available guidance for standardized field sampling methodologies for each Mission-Sensitive Species and ensuring those methods are translated to AKN Sampling Protocols to be used in your Project.
