NORDUnet Network Inventory project
NORDUnet Network inventory project is divided in to three parts.
- Producers that produce data files in the NERDS format.
- Consumers that uses the collected data. NOCLook is one of those consumers.
- Repository for version control. We use git.
NERDS project
NERDS stand for Network Enterprise Resource Discovery System. A collaborative effort between initially NORDUnet and Stockholm University to collect reusable data about "stuff" on our networks.

NOCLook
NOCLook is one of the possible consumer for the collected NERDS data. It is a web app built with Django and the Neo4j graph database.
