Data Storage and Analysis: The Working Group manages a database in which all monitoring data are stored. Recently the Group developed a web-based database to make data entry and retrieval more efficient. Efforts are underway to re-enter all data in this new online database. Once this process is completed, the Group will then be able to generate reports that will be useful for management purposes. Use of the database is governed by a data sharing agreement , which has been signed by participating members. Dive safety is a prime concern of the Working Group, which has developed emergency procedure guidelines and keeps and up-to-date record of dive team members.
