The KLMN Data Mining Team (DMT) sought out information tucked away in filing cabinets, boxed up in storage, written as digital files, and kept at outside institutions. The focus of gathering the information was centered around the 12 Basic Inventories, which is a set of core natural resource inventory data needed to effectively manage a park‘s resources (developed by the I&M Program). This set of 12 distinct categories, first identified in Appendix A of the Natural Resource Inventory and Monitoring Guidelines (NPS 1992), and additionally supported through NPS Inventory and Monitoring web sites (NPS 2003), includes the following abiotic and biotic ecosystem components:
1) Natural Resource Bibliographies

2) Comprehensive Vascular and Vertebrate Species List

3) Species Occurrence and Distribution

4) Vegetation Inventory

5) Base Cartography Data

6) Soils Resources Inventory

7) Geology Resources Inventory

8) Water Bodies Location and Classification

9) Baseline Water Quality Data

10) Air Quality Data
