KMBRC

The Kent and Medway Biological Records Centre is the organisation promoting recording of all wildlife in Kent.

I worked at the KMBRC between 2005 and 2006 as European project officer in charge of the implementation of an Interreg project with French partners from the region Nord Pas de Calais.

Please send forward your observations of plants and animals to the KMBRC in order to increase our knowledge of the current state of the biodiversity of Kent.

RECORDER provides a powerful, standards based tool for collection and collation of biological recordings in the UK.

It includes data entry, reporting and distribution mapping functionality. The platform is extensible through the development of addins and the National Biodiversity Network (NBN) data model used is well documented, open and accessible.

Tritus (Lissotriton) vulgaris

Recorder 6 develops on the Recorder 2000 & Recorder 2002 product widely used by field biologists in the United Kingdom. The database platform has been changed from Microsoft Access to Microsoft SQL Server, providing more robust data storage, better security and the ability to store a potentially unlimited number of observation records. In addition, improved reporting facilities, a new data import wizard and the ability to control the custodian of records are some of the many new features.
