  20. Thank you and enjoy PNF search! The PNF is a common property of two project partners who have participated in its development – University of Novi Sad, Serbia and University of Split, Croatia. The ownership is restricted only to the exploitation of the visual identity, the PHP source code and the database structure. There is however, no ownership of the data contained and it is available for the entire GEO community free of charge and without registration.
