The Rocky Mountain Climate Protocol(RMCP) relies entirely on data acquired from established weather and climate monitoring systems operated by the federal and academic entities listed in Table 1. As of 2010, most tabular climate data (not including geospatial SNODAS and PRISM data sources) are compiled by and managed in an enterprise database operated by the NPS Inventory and Monitoring Division (IMD). This SOP describes the steps required to ensure that parameter values from network weather and Streamgage stations are incorporated into the NPS Enterprise Climate Database. Procedures are included here for downloading COOP, SNOTEL, snow course, and Streamgage data in cases where the IMD cannot acquire, compile, and provide the required data for the network via the NPS IMD Climate Database.
