About SEEK

Difference between version 11 and version 1:

Line 1 was replaced by line 1
- !!! Science Environment for Ecological Knowledge (SEEK)is ...
+ The Science Environment for Ecological Knowledge (SEEK) is a system designed to facilitate not only data acquisition and archiving, but integrating, transforming, analyzing, and synthesizing ecological and biodiversity data that was previously intractable.
Line 3 was replaced by lines 3-6
- a system of Information Technology tools designed to facilitate not only data acquisition and archiving, but integrating, transforming, analyzing and synthesizing ecology data that was previously intractable.
+ The goals of SEEK are to build cyberinfrastructure which creates fundamental improvements in how researchers can:
+ *gain global access to ecological data and information,
+ *locate and utilize distributed computational services, and
+ *exercise powerful new methods for capturing, reproducing, and analyzing data by extending ecological and biodiversity analysis and research capabilities.
