The Columbia Basin PIT Tag Information System (PTAGIS) and the PIT Tag Steering Committee are pleased to announce a PIT Tag Workshop to be held January 27 – 29, 2015, at Skamania Lodge near Stevenson, Washington.

PTAGIS Mark Data Coordinators and Projects

PTAGIS has been incrementally transitioning to linking MRR data to projects rather than individuals for a number of years, and yet another small step has recently been taken in the reporting system. Several coordinator attributes are being deprecated and replaced with project attributes. These changes require that users update any saved reports or subscriptions that filter on the coordinator attributes.

Tag Mask Validation Implemented for MRR Data

The tag mask validation process described in the June 2014 newsletter was implemented on August 20.

Complete Tag History Enhancements

The Complete Tag History report has been updated to include Capture Method and Textual Comments, and to correct zooming and display issues on the map.

Data Load Notification Enhancements

Enhancements to the Tag Data Load (TDL) process were rolled out on June 19 and July 11, 2014. Most of the changes were designed to improve maintainability and efficiency of the process. However, data contributors will see that notifications emails have been improved, as well.
