KNB in the Community

The Knowledge Network for Biocomplexity Project has created a set of software tools intended for use by the ecological community. Our Metacat software is open-source and available for all interested parties in both binary and source code form. Some known groups using KNB software are listed below. We are happy to help groups interested in installing Metacat software at their own sites, and can be reached at knb-help@nceas.ucsb.edu.
