The Kepler scientific workflow system is an open source application designed to help scientists, analysts, and computer programmers solve the problem of analyzing data stored in a variety of formats with software components deployed and invoked in different ways. Using Kepler's graphical user
... [More] interface, users simply select and then connect pertinent analytical components and data sources to create a "scientific workflow"—an executable representation of the steps required to generate results. The Kepler software helps users share and reuse data, workflows, and components developed by the scientific community to address common needs. [Less]
A flexible metadata database that utilizes XML as a common syntax for representing the large number of metadata content standards relevant to ecology. Thus, Metacat is a generic XML database that allows storage, query, and retrieval of arbitrary XML documents without prior knowledge of the XML schema.
Morpho allows you to create and manage your data, and to share it with others. It was created to provide an easy-to-use, cross-platform application for accessing and manipulating metadata and data (both locally and on the network).
Morpho allows ecologists to create metadata, (i.e. describe their
... [More] data in a standardized format), and create a catalog of data & metadata upon which to query, edit and view data collections. In addition, It also provides the means to access network servers, in order to query, view and retrieve all relevant, public ecological data! [Less]
The Data Observation Network for Earth (DataONE) is poised to be the foundation of new innovative environmental science through a distributed framework and sustainable cyberinfrastructure that meets the needs of science and society for open, persistent, robust, and secure access to well-described
... [More] and easily discovered Earth observational data. Supported by the U.S. National Science Foundation, DataONE will ensure preservation and access to multi-scale, multi-discipline, and multi-national science data. [Less]
The Ecological Metadata Language (EML) project is an open source, community oriented project dedicated to providing a high-quality metadata specification for describing scientific data relevant to the ecological discipline. These data often consist of observational data on the distribution and
... [More] abundance of organisms, the processes that control these systems, and the biotic and abiotic environment in which the organisms are embedded. The project is completely comprised of voluntary project members who donate their time and experience in order to advance information management for ecology. [Less]
