# Tools to browse, search, visualize and curate GO

The Gene Ontology provides a variety of tools to help users browse, search, visualize, download both the [GO ontology](/docs/ontology-documentation/) and [GO annotations](/docs/go-annotations/). In addition, GO develops the [Noctua Curation Platform](http://noctua.geneontology.org){:target="blank"} for curators to create GO annotations.

## Browse the ontology

Drill-down browsing of the GO ontology is possible via an [interactive tree](http://amigo.geneontology.org/amigo/dd_browse){:target="blank"}.

## Visualize annotations with the GO Ribbon
Many genes have large numbers of annotations, making it difficult to get a quick overview of a gene function, or the functions of gene sets. The GO ribbon is specifically designed to help users visualize and explore the functions of a gene and was developed as a lightweight, reusable widget that can be embedded in any website, and retrieves data directly from the GO knowledgebase via API.

## Explore co-annotations with the GO Term Matrix
[The GO Term Matrix](http://amigo.geneontology.org/matrix){:target="blank"} represents co-annotations of pairs of GO terms. It allows to compare multiple pairs of terms simultaneously.

## Create annotations

[Noctua](http://noctua.geneontology.org/){:target="blank"} is the curation platform developed by the Gene Ontology Consortium and allows trained GO curators to create both GO annotations and GO Causal Activity Models (GO-CAMs). The Noctua curation platform includes a simple form editor and a more advanced and expressive pathway editor for finer details on knowledge modeling.
