    4. Web Reef Advisory System [Java]
    http://www.reefcheck.org/datamanagement/

    The Web Reef Advisory System (WRAS) was developed by
    ReefBase and Reef Check, in collaboration with the Coastal
    Resources Center at the University of Rhode Island and the
    Department of Biological Sciences at the University of
    Southern California, as "an online application to input,
    view, and analyze Reef Check survey data. It calculates
    indicators of how good or bad a shape a particular reef is
    in, and what the underlying causes may be, based on Reef
    Check surveys." WRAS allows users to view, analyze, and add
    (registration required) data. Please note that site users
    must complete a free and brief registration process before
    they are granted full access to the Reef Check website.
    Other site offerings include an interactive Reef Check GIS
    feature (see website for browser requirements), and The Reef
    Check Barometer of Global Reef Condition which provides
    assessments of different regions based on Reef Check
    Indicators. [NL]
