THE PROBLEM
What if our set of classified organisms is VERY VERY BIG?

WHAT DO THEY HAVE IN COMMON?
- Try to visualize pure DNA comparison
- Most of them are static approaches
- Very technical solutions, non biologists have problems understanding the solutions
- Non-generic approaches
- When comparing multiple results (unclassified organisms) they have limitations
OUR PROPOSAL
- Visualize taxonomy similarities and scores
- Interactive
- Solutions for all public
- Generic approach
- Allows multiple results comparison (multiple unclassified organisms)
