TIIMS is your gateway for the information you need to participate in Lake Tahoe Basin restoration and planning efforts. TIIMS is designed to serve more than the Lake Tahoe community – whether you are a resident or visitor, teacher or student, government agency or non-profit organization, research scientist or private consultant, TIIMS has the Lake Tahoe information you need.

TIIMS is more than an information repository - it is an interactive website that provides tools for users to share and manage information and data efficiently. With TIIMS, you can access monitoring data, maps, and reports and also learn how to get involved in environmental education and restoration projects in the Basin.

TIIMS provides access to data and information across a wide spectrum reflected as an information pyramid. TIIMS includes the ability for agencies and organizations to collaborate and coordinate their planning and restoration efforts in the Lake Tahoe Basin through the TIIMS workspaces.

• Learn about Lake Tahoe Basin efforts through the introductory educational materials, presentations and publications.
