Virtual Biodiversity Research and Access Network for Taxonomy (ViBRANT) is a European Union FP7 funded project starting in December 2010 that will support the development of virtual research communities involved in biodiversity science. Our goal is to provide a more integrated and effective framework for those managing biodiversity data on the Web. | |||
ViBRANT provides: | |||
1) A virtual research environment (Scratchpads) where users can safely store, share and manage their research information.<br> | |||
2) Analytical services for users to build identification keys and phylogenetic trees.<br> | |||
3) A publication platform for users to automatically compile biodiversity science manuscripts from their research database.<br> | |||
4) A portal for users to centrally access publicly accessible biodiversity research information and literature.<br> | |||
4) Training, helping research communities to use these tools and services. | |||
5) A standards compliant technical architecture that can be sustained by biodiversity research community.<br> | |||
