11 NBII FrogWeb: Amphibian Malformations

12 Current Challenges within NBII: Distributed Data Sets Vast Amounts of Information National Focus of NBII Varying Customers & User Capabilities Information Technology Explosion Limited Resources

13 Definition: NBII is to be considered a fully digital, distributed, and interactive system that allows a vast community of users access to the nations biological holdings.

14 Controlled & Secure Network Biology News Feeds Metadata Input URL Registry Data Analysis Translations Search Standards, Vocabulary, Hardware/Software Agents Data & Information Repository Customers Researchers, Scientists, Program Managers, Resource Managers, Educators, Industry, Public Customers Researchers, Scientists, Program Managers, Resource Managers, Educators, Industry, Public Content Biodiversity, Species, Systematics, Ecosystems, Habitats, Collections, Organizations, Education, Data Tools Content Biodiversity, Species, Systematics, Ecosystems, Habitats, Collections, Organizations, Education, Data Tools Service Tools Content Infrastructure Conceptual Framework:

15 NBII Regional Nodes: Integrating local and regional interests in a national context. Training Node activities: Analytical capabilities Technology support Synthesis capabilities Collaborations Data warehousing

16 The Internet Today: Internet spending will grow from $11.8 billion in 1999 to $43 billion world-wide in 2002 75 million U.S. users 100 million users worldwide 35% said Internet has replaced TV on daily basis Source: Cyberlok Technologies
