Progress 03/01/02 to 06/30/06
Outputs
NDOA Division of Livestock Identification required an oversight database management and design compatible with the University of Nevada, Reno database. NDOA also required the following services 1)Assistance in database design, management and compatibility 2)Assistance in network and hardware design and maintenance 3) Assistance in software troubleshooting and maintenance. The University of Nevada, Reno had the needed expertise to facilitate such needs. Therefore, a trained network specialist from the Department of Animal Biotechnology was assinged to the task on a 40% FTE basis. This project was terminated.

Progress 01/01/03 to 12/31/03
Outputs
The primary responsibility of the Network specialist at the NDOA is on database support to the Brands program as well as the Animal Disease Lab. The incumbent is also involved in the continued development of the Nevada Head Tax database. The integration of the Brands, Head Tax, and Rangeland databases into one centralized database housed in Reno while remaining accessible to all involved parties across the entire state, is underway. The Brands program is now using a Visual Basic application sitting on top of an Access database. The incumbent continues to be the point person between the Department of Information Technologies (DoIT) and the end user during the beta testing and warranty period. The Brands program is starting its renewal process and Ben is directly involved in the building of queries and reports for the project. The ADL database is currently undergoing changes to further enhance its capabilities and make it more straightforward for the users. In addition
to the database activities, the incumbent is also the acting System Administrator for the NDOA domain and act as a liaison between DoIT and NDOA. The incumbent is also responsible for the current departmental file server and is working on a second server for SQL and GIS capabilities. The NDOA also relies on the network specialist Ben for custom computer work ranging from disaster recovery to custom computer design and configurations to technologies planning and real-time data conferencing.

The primary responsibility of the Network specialist at the NDOA is on database support to the Brands program as well as the Animal Disease Lab. The incumbent is also involved in the continued development of the Nevada Head Tax database. Planning is being done to look at the feasibility of integrating the Brands, Head Tax, and Rangeland databases into one centralized database housed in Reno while remaining accessible to all involved parties across the entire state. The Brands program has just undergone a massive overhaul to convert from an outdated, Macintosh-based program to the current Visual Basic application sitting on top of an Access database.
