Bandon Marsh and Oregon Islands (Coquille Point) National Wildlife Refuges: Invasive Plant

2021 workshop data tables from the Invasive Plant Inventory and Early Detection Prioritization Tool (IPIEDT) for Bandon Marsh and Oregon Islands National Wildlife Refuges. The Department of the Interior created this tool to calculate species and area scores based on user responses to descriptive questions. The results are archived as CSV files and an Access Database to preserve workshop outcomes.

Use Cases

• Prioritizing invasive plant inventory efforts based on calculated species scores.
• Ranking areas for early detection monitoring based on calculated area scores.
• Archiving workshop results for reference against future database updates.
• Analyzing threat conditions for specific invasive species like Canada Thistle or Eurasian Watermilfoil.

Strengths

• Data tables are archived to preserve workshop results independently of future database changes.
• The prioritization tool uses a structured scoring system based on user responses.
• Outputs include both a database tool and standalone CSV files for accessibility.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
• Freshness should be verified; the last metadata update was 2026-03-04.
