Access Modes

Read (R)

Everyone has read access. It is possible to search for names, view simple pedigrees <http://www.barnim.net/pedigree/show/66130.html> and navigate through simple pedigrees. Also search engines (Google, Bing etc.) are allowed to do this.

Extended read (X)

In the first 12 years of the Database, this function was reserved to registered and logged in users. In August 2016 we relaxed this policy and now every user (except search engines) has extended read access. In addition to normal read access, users can display the detail view <http://www.barnim.net/pedigree/details/66130.html>, use the What-if analysis <http://www.barnim.net/pedigree/whatif.php> and view the Reverse pedigree <http://www.barnim.net/pedigree/reverse.php?probe=46966&gen=2>.

Write (W)

This is the "Editor" function. Editors are allow to do direct changes to the database using the Batch Language.

Administrator (A)

The Administrator has full access to all database maintenance functions.
