EPA's Office of Research and Development (ORD) has developed a scientific environmental
information management system (EIMS) that stores, manages, and delivers descriptive information
(metadata) for data sets, databases, documents, models, multimedia, projects, and spatial
information. The EIMS design also provides a repository for scientific documentation that can be easily accessed with standard Web browsers
to place a virtual library on the desktop of EPA staff and others with Internet access. EIMS is one of the integrating activities for information
management within the USEPA's Office of Research and Development.
The latest version of the EIMS User Guide and Data Administration Guidelines are now available for download.
Please see our User Guide section and refer to the Policies and Procedures area for the Administration Guidelines.
