As an intern at the BLM's National Operations Center, I assissted the Assessment, Inventory and Monitoring (AIM) team with developing a plan to drive communication of the AIM strategy to all levels of BLM employees and the agency's partners. Part of that plan involved creating an online database of previous AIM efforts. By showing why a BLM monitoring effort used the AIM strategy, how the project was implemented, the quality of the data gathered, and how that data is informing management decisions, we believe BLM staff and managers will better visualize AIM's concepts and understand the benefits of implementing the AIM strategy. During this poster session, I will showcase a few of the project factpages I created, as well as the online mapping system developed to house them. I look forward to presenting tangible examples of how AIM is giving BLM managers the tools they need to make more informed, defensible decisions.
