Note:
This Concise Guide for Technical Managers provides a series of check lists as memory joggers for those managing natural resources data and information projects. Some of the lists are in fact aide memoires, documenting optional elements that technical managers may wish to consider if relevant to their project. The check lists correspond to the ten modules of the Toolkit.
