Relational Management and Display of Site Environmental Data

Many environmental projects reach the point where the amount of data that has been collected requires a robust tool to manage it. This book covers a spectrum of topics, from the theory of relational management of site data to practical suggestions about working with laboratories. It includes an overview of site data management, relational data management theory, the design of the database tool, and how to implement the database system, together with pitfalls, horror stories, and success stories. The concepts covered apply to any database management system, from stand-alone through client-server to Web-based.
