Join us at 10:00 am (Pacific) on January 15th for the next meeting of the PNAMP Fish Monitoring Work Group (FMWG). During the meeting, we will update participants on current tasks, hear a presentation about innovative fish monitoring, and provide you with opportunities to engage regional managers and experts. These meetings are an opportune time to discuss tasks and get input from members on where they see importance or could use facilitated support.

Tech Talk: From Data to Decisions: RMIS in R at Your Fingertips – Explore how RMIS and R work together to transform raw data into meaningful fisheries management decisions.

Presenters: Greg Wilke (Database and Application Manager, Pacific States Marine Fisheries Commission) and Kris Warner (Fish and Wildlife Biologist, Region 5 North- Hatchery Monitoring and Evaluation, Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife)

Summary:

Feedback from the 2025 FMWG survey suggested a presentation on how to use the RMIS R package. In this presentation, RMIS R package users will showcase how they apply the code in their workflows, followed by a discussion on desired improvements and ways to enhance usability. Developers will be available to provide support and gather feedback, ensuring the package evolves to better meet user needs.
