BioCup, one of the leading entries, captured the ecological niche for wholly biodegradable pods. These data will be modelled using ecological niche modelling and integrating data on climate, vegetal environment and coastlines, which significantly evolved during this period.
The CSV (Comma Separated Value) file format is often used to exchange data between disparate applications. The file format, as it is used in Microsoft Excel, has become a pseudo standard throughout the industry, even among non-Microsoft platforms.
You can also use a text editor like Notepad++ or GenScriber to open CSV files but large ones will be very difficult to work with in these types of programs. Open Freely is another alternative but with the same problem with larger CSVs. Microsoft Excel supports CSV files too, but the program isn't free to use.
