The Biodiversity Analysis Pipeline

We have partnered with the Crossing Boundaries project (http://crossingboundariesproject.org/) which uses Science Pipes as one tool that  secondary teachers and students use to analyze biodiversity conservation issues in their local or regional environment as well as in the Brazilian Amazon and Chiapas, Mexico. We presented a training workshop on Science Pipes to teachers participating in Crossing Boundaries, who were very exited about using it in the classroom. 

On the technical side, we will be moving to an open beta of the SciencePipes.org web site by the end of 2009. Also at SciencePipes.org we have released an new workflow editor that provides much greater help functionality and ease of use than the previous editor.

We are looking for additional partners that might be able to use the Science Pipes tools to explore biodiversity or other topics. The analysis and visualization platform that makes up Sciences Pipes is designed to be easy to use by non-technical people and easily adapted to other fields of interest.
