Created in 2009, the SanBIOS database serves as a single repository of species observations collected by various departments within the County of San Diego's Land Use and Environment Group. Coordination of biological species tracking between departments ensures a complete dataset, meeting a specific data standard, and will provide the best available information to environmental scientists, advocacy groups, all County departments, and various agencies.

SanBIOS was modifeid from the Count of San Diego's Department of Planning and Land Use's Biological Observation Database (BOD).
Background of the BOD: The County of San Diego owns or is in the process of acquiring key lands within the Multiple Species Conservation Program (MSCP) preserve area. The MSCP Biological Monitoring Plan requires monitoring of covered plant species. The County of San Diego was awarded two Natural Communities Conservation Planning (NCCP) Program Local Assistance Grants to accomplish the first phase of the monitoring program, i.e., collecting baseline data for covered plant species. The study area of this grant was amended to include lands in San Vicente (Boys and Girl's Club) Ecological Reserve that were originally included in the statement of work for the NCCP Local Assistance grant No. P0050008. The lands in the total amended study area, from north to south are open space areas in Santa Fe Valley, County-owned portions of Lusardi Creek, open space areas conveyed to the County of San Diego in 4S Ranch, San Vicente Open Space Preserve, McGinty Mountain preserve lands, Hollenbeck Canyon Wildlife Area, and lands north and south of the eastern arm of Otay Lakes. Portions of Rancho Jamul Ecological Reserve were also surveyed.
